Article: Peer collaboration in P5: students' perspective of project-based learning in multicultural school setting Journal: International Journal of Innovation and Learning (IJIL) 2025 Vol.37 No.1 pp.104 - 119 Abstract: In response to the imperative of nurturing citizens capable of thriving in a multicultural society, the Indonesian Government has launched the 'strengthening the profile of Pancasila students' project (P5). This study employed a mixed-method design, utilising online surveys featuring closed and open-ended questions for data collection. Out of the 805 participants invited to complete the survey, 487 willingly participated. The data were analysed using descriptive statistics and thematic content analysis. The findings highlight that P5, as an innovation in project-based learning, can serve not only to enhance problem-solving skills but also to promote mutual understanding among students. This aligns with Indonesia's educational objectives, particularly those about the realisation of the Pancasila student profile, with a specific focus on fostering critical thinking and embracing global diversity. This research offers valuable insights into students' perspectives on collaborating with their peers. Schools implementing P5 should consider innovative approaches to its implementation.
