<![CDATA[The rapid development of digital technology has increased the use of online games among elementary school students. Excessive online gaming may cause various negative effects, including decreased learning concentration and motivation, reduced rest time, behavioral changes, and declining student discipline. This study aimed to identify the negative impacts of online games on students, describe teachers' strategies in overcoming these negative impacts, and identify the supporting and inhibiting factors in implementing those strategies at MI NW Kumbung. This study employed a qualitative approach using field research. The research subjects consisted of the principal, classroom teachers, and students. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The data were analyzed using the Miles, Huberman, and Saldana interactive model, including data collection, data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings revealed that the negative impacts of online games included decreased learning concentration and motivation, lower academic achievement, emotional instability, reduced direct social interaction, and poor discipline in completing school assignments. Teachers addressed these problems through preventive, curative, and collaborative strategies. Preventive strategies included providing advice, character education, and encouraging students to participate in positive activities. Curative strategies involved personal guidance, learning assistance, and educational reprimands. Collaborative strategies were implemented through cooperation among teachers, the principal, and parents in supervising students' gadget use and providing continuous guidance. Supporting factors included the principal's support, good cooperation with parents, a religious school environment, and teachers' commitment. Meanwhile, the inhibiting factors included students' ownership of personal smartphones, limited parental supervision, peer influence, easy internet access, and students' low awareness of the negative impacts of excessive online gaming.
