<![CDATA[Indonesian language learning in elementary schools (SD/MI) aims to develop students' spoken and written language skills. However, in practice, learning is often conventional and lacks connection between the material and students' real lives, resulting in low motivation and learning outcomes. The contextual teaching and learning model (CTL) offers an alternative that emphasizes the connection between subject matter and real-world situations. This article aims to analyze the effectiveness of the contextual learning model in improving Indonesian language learning outcomes in SD/MI. The method used is library research, reviewing various relevant books and scientific journals. The results indicate that the contextual learning model is effective in improving conceptual understanding, language skills, learning motivation, and active student participation because learning is linked to their real-life experiences.]]>
