Abstract

Understanding the concept of a base map is a crucial skill in elementary school science and social studies. However, many students still face challenges, particularly in recognizing symbols, understanding scale, and reading location-related information. This study aims to explain how the use of interactive learning media can improve the understanding of fourth-grade students at the Al-Hidayah Foundation regarding the concept of a base map. The method used involved direct observation in learning activities with interactive maps, where students actively participated by pointing out country locations, utilizing symbols, and identifying regional boundaries. The results of the observations showed that interactive media was able to overcome cognitive and visual problems experienced by students previously, because the direct and participatory presentation of maps made it easier for them to understand. In addition, active participation in practical activities increased students' motivation and curiosity. Therefore, it can be concluded that the use of interactive learning media has a positive impact on improving the understanding of the concept of a base map among elementary school students, while strengthening the relevance of more practical science and social studies learning.

Abstract

This study aims to enhance the understanding of fifth-grade students at SDN 060786 in the subject of Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS), specifically the topic "Economic Conditions in My Region," through the use of diorama media. The research uses the Classroom Action Research (CAR) method with the spiral model by Kemmis and McTaggart, which includes the stages of planning, action, observation, and reflection. This study was conducted in two cycles, with data collected through learning outcome tests, observations of the learning process, and interviews with the teacher to gather feedback on the use of diorama media. The results of the study show a significant improvement in both conceptual understanding and learning outcomes of the students after the implementation of diorama media. The students also demonstrated increased engagement in the learning process, becoming more active and motivated to participate in the activities. Moreover, the use of diorama media helped students understand abstract concepts more easily than through text or verbal explanations alone. These findings emphasize that the teacher’s creativity in selecting and utilizing appropriate learning media plays a crucial role in creating an interactive, meaningful, and enjoyable learning environment, ultimately improving the quality of student learning outcomes.
