Abstract: The article focuses on the implementation of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) to enhance students' understanding of optical diffraction through hands-on experiments with X-shaped diffraction patterns. It illustrates how students can investigate real-life phenomena, such as light diffraction observed through serrated objects like springs and screws, to develop scientific inquiry skills. The article emphasizes the importance of teacher guidance in facilitating this learning process and highlights the alignment of experimental results with theoretical models, showcasing the effectiveness of PBL in fostering critical thinking and collaboration among students. Additionally, it underscores the broader implications of such educational approaches in promoting scientific literacy and practical applications in various fields. [Extracted from the article]
