<![CDATA[Low learning motivation remains a persistent challenge in elementary Indonesian language instruction, primarily due to the predominance of conventional teaching media that fail to promote engaging and interactive learning experiences. This study investigated the effect of Canva-based animated video learning media on the learning motivation of fourth-grade elementary school students. A quantitative approach employing a quasi-experimental design with a nonequivalent control group was adopted. The participants comprised 67 students, including 34 in the experimental group and 33 in the control group. Data were collected through learning motivation questionnaires, classroom observations, and documentation, and analyzed using descriptive statistics and an independent-samples t-test following normality and homogeneity testing. The findings revealed that students exposed to the Canva-based animated videos demonstrated higher learning motivation than those receiving conventional instruction (80.39 vs. 78.35). Inferential analysis indicated a statistically significant difference between the two groups (t = 7.079, p < .001), confirming the positive effect of the intervention on students' learning motivation. These findings provide empirical support for multimedia learning theory and suggest that pedagogically designed animated videos constitute an effective instructional strategy for enhancing student engagement and learning motivation in elementary Indonesian language education.]]>
