<![CDATA[This study examines the effect of interactive lapbook media on fourth-grade students’ learning outcomes in cultural diversity and local wisdom topics at SD Negeri 43 Palembang. Using a quantitative quasi-experimental pre-test - post-test control group design, 60 fourth-grade students were divided into experimental (n=30) and control (n=30) groups. The experimental group received instruction using interactive lapbook media, while the control group was taught using conventional lecture methods. Data were collected through essay tests administered as pre-test and post-test, and analysed using normality tests, homogeneity tests, and independent t-tests. Results revealed that the experimental group showed significantly higher post-test scores (t = 3.98, p < 0.05) compared to the control group. The experimental group’s average learning outcomes improved from 62.3 (pretest) to 81.7 (post-test), while the control group improved from 61.8 to 69.5. Furthermore, observation data indicated increased student motivation, active participation, and engagement in the experimental group. The findings demonstrate that interactive lapbook media effectively enhances student learning outcomes by providing concrete, visual, and kinaesthetic learning experiences. This study contributes to the growing body of evidence on effective interactive learning media in primary education and offers practical implications for teachers seeking to create more engaging, student-centred learning environments aligned with the Merdeka Curriculum.]]>
