Project-Based Learning is one of the student-centered learning innovations introduced in the education system to replace the use of traditional methods. PBL is also one of the pedagogical approaches that can improve 21st century skills. PBL is able to develop critical, creative, systematic and logical thinking and focus on the production of a product or innovation. However, there is an issue of student learning that is less interested in conventional teaching and learning methods that are only teacher-centered and involve only a few activities such as teaching delivery, question and answer sessions and students being given training even if they lack or do not understand the learning concept presented by teacher. Therefore, the implementation of the PBL method is required in teaching and learning Moral Education in an effort to attract students' interest in learning and understanding the learning concepts learned. This concept paper will cover PBL, PBL Method and 21st Century Learning Skills and the benefits of PBL to students. The analysis made in this concept paper uses secondary data from refereed sources such as journals and previous research books. The discussion of this concept paper can help to new knowledge for the next researchers to focus more studies on PBL in effective implementation in teaching and learning.
