Project-based learning is a learning method that allows students to study a given topic to produce a product at the end of learning. This learning activity is also able to encourage students to think critically, creatively, systematically and logically. This study will discuss the literature review related to the effects of project-based learning (PBL) in teaching and facilitation in primary schools in previous studies. Data was obtained through a qualitative method that applied a document analysis design based on a systematic literature review (SLR) as a foundation. The databases used are leading databases namely Scopus and Web of Science (WOS). The articles that have been collected are then examined to ensure that the selected articles meet the focus of the study. A total of 17 out of 215 articles were selected to be discussed in this study. Each topic has been discussed in detail to get a comprehensive picture of the impact of project-based learning (PBP) at the primary school level. The results of the study show that there are five effects of project-based learning (PBP) at the primary school level, namely in terms of skills, creativity, social interaction, knowledge and academic achievement. These five effects are positive effects in the implementation of PBP at the primary school level and the effects that have a great impact in the PBL teaching method are in terms of skills and the effect on academic achievement is less impressive.
