Abstract
Pancasila Education plays a crucial role in shaping students character, civic awareness, and democratic attitudes. However, learning practices at MTsN 1 Indramayu tend to be teacher-centered, resulting in low student participation and suboptimal learning outcomes. This study aims to optimize student participation in Pancasila Education learning through the implementation of the Cooperative Learning model, specifically the Team Game Tournament (TGT) type. The study was conducted with Grade VII students at MTsN 1 Indramayu using an actualization-based approach through planned learning activities, observation, and evaluation. The TGT model integrates group cooperation, educational games, and healthy competition to actively involve students in the learning process. The results indicate that the application of the TGT model increases student participation, motivation, collaboration, and learning outcomes. Students become more active in discussions, more confident in expressing opinions, and more responsible for their individual and group tasks. In conclusion, Cooperative Learning using the TGT model is effective in creating an interactive and student-centered learning environment and can serve as an alternative instructional strategy to improve the quality of Pancasila Education learning
