Abstract

Pancasila Education learning on Socio-Cultural Diversity material is still dominated by conventional teacher-centered methods so that students' active participation and critical thinking skills have not developed optimally. This study aims to develop the BERACA interactive learning media and test its feasibility, practicality, and effectiveness in improving students' critical thinking skills. The novelty of this research lies in the development of the BERACA media that integrates problem-solving-based challenges, interactive activities, and the context of socio-cultural diversity in one learning medium to encourage active student involvement during the learning process. The study used the Research and Development (R&D) method with the ADDIE model which includes the stages of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. Data were obtained through observation, interviews, questionnaires, and tests involving expert validators, education practitioners, and 30 students. The results of the study indicate that the BERACA media meets the criteria of very feasible based on expert assessments, receives very good responses from teachers and students, and effectively improves critical thinking skills as indicated by the increase in learning outcomes and student completion levels after using the media. Thus, BERACA media can be a learning innovation that supports the transformation of Pancasila Education learning from passive learning to more active, contextual learning, and oriented towards developing students' critical thinking skills. These findings imply that BERACA media can be an alternative for teachers in creating more innovative, meaningful Pancasila Education learning that is in line with the demands of 21st-century learning.
