Summary/Abstract: Physics education students as prospective educators have the task of building student knowledge. This requires physics education students to master SPS because most physics lessons emphasize activity-centered material. The research conducted aims to analyze the level of mastery of SPS in the Melde practicum in terms of gender. This research involves practical activities by applying a problem-based learning model (PBL). This study uses total sampling with participants being first year physics education students class 2019/2020 consisting of 19 male students and 76 female students at Jambi University with sampling technique used is total sampling. The analytical technique used in this study is descriptive statistics with data collection assisted by observation sheets aimed at measuring students' SPS. The results showed that female students had better SPS than male students as indicated by the average score. These results indicate that girls tend to be more active in doing practicum, this tendency arises as a result of a strong curiosity fromthe students themselves
