<![CDATA[This study aims to determine the effect of the use of audio-visual media on the learning interest of fifth-grade students at Siabu 025 Elementary Elementary School. This study uses a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental research type (quasi-experimental design) with a pretest–posttest control group design. The population in this study were all fifth-grade students at Siabu 025 Elementary Elementary School with a sample of 30 students taken using saturated sampling techniques. Data collection techniques used in this study include observation, questionnaires, and documentation. The research instrument was a questionnaire on student learning interest compiled based on indicators of attention, interest, participation, and learning motivation. The research data were analyzed using a normality test, a homogeneity test, and a hypothesis test using a t-test (independent sample t-test). The results showed that the average student learning interest increased from a pretest value of 60.4 to 78.8 in the posttest after the use of audio-visual media in the learning process. The results of the hypothesis test showed that the calculated t value was greater than the t table with a significance value less than 0.05, so the research hypothesis was accepted. This shows that the use of audiovisual media has a significant impact on increasing students' interest in learning. Therefore, audiovisual media can be an effective alternative learning medium for increasing student interest in learning in elementary schools.]]>
