Cultivating critical thinking character education is urgently required in the era of globalization. Field trip teaching materials with local wisdom can be an attractive alternative. This study aims to develop science teaching materials based on field trips with local wisdom to improve elementary school students in critical thinking skills. Method: This research method uses research and development, Borg and Gall. Data collection techniques used unstructured interviews, observation, assessment tests, and non-tes. At the same time, data analysis uses quantitative data and descriptive elaboration. Results: The study showed the validity of teaching materials in this research with a percentage gain of 82.00% if converted to a valid category. In comparison, the practicality of implementing lesson plans obtained a percentage of 94.00%, and student activity obtained a percentage of 95.00% with an outstanding category. The effectiveness of science teaching materials showed pretest results with an average of 66.30, while the post-test data was 87.22. Novelty: This research shows a significant increase in the critical thinking skills of elementary school students through learning science teaching materials based on field trips with local wisdom. The update of this research is to implement field trip activities into teaching materials so that learning in cultivating critical thinking is exciting for students.

Abstract

Objective: This study explores pedagogical transformation in early childhood education through digital game-based learning by developing Tapak Nusantara, a digital adaptation of the traditional crankle game. Integrating pedagogical principles in game-based learning is crucial for fostering critical thinking in young learners. This research bridges cultural pedagogy with digital learning, ensuring children acquire meaningful educational experiences while preserving Indonesian culture. Method: This research is development research with a 4D model approach. The subjects of this study were 53 children in IT Nada Ashobah kindergarten class B and Labschool Unesa kindergarten class B. Results: This study showed a significant difference between the crankle traditional and crankle traditional games. The results of this study showed a significant difference between the pre-test and post-test scores in both the Nada Ashobah IT Kindergarten (t = -8.494, p < 0.001) and Labschool (t = -5.783, p < 0.001) groups, which indicated the effectiveness of the game in improving children's critical thinking. Novelty: This research lies in three key contributions: (1) the pedagogical innovation of integrating game-base learning with cultural education, (2) the digital transformation of a traditional game into a developmentally appropriate learning tool, and (3) Tapak Nusantara representative culture, pedagogy, and technology to cultivate critical thinking for early childhood.
