<![CDATA[Fifth-grade students at SDN 1 Taman Kota Madiun demonstrated a low level of conceptual understanding regarding the topic of diversity within the *Pancasila* Education subject; pre-cycle data showed an average score of 41.79, with only 10.71% of students meeting the minimum mastery criteria. This situation was likely caused by a reliance on lecture-based teaching methods and the suboptimal use of Chromebooks, despite the devices having been provided through the school's digitalization program. This study aimed to describe the improvement in students' conceptual understanding through the use of Chromebooks integrated with the Canva application. Adopting Arikunto’s classroom action research (CAR) model—comprising planning, implementation, observation, and reflection stages across two cycles—the study involved 28 fifth-grade students. Data were collected via conceptual understanding tests and learning activity observation sheets, then analyzed using quantitative descriptive methods. The results showed an increase in average scores from 41.79 (pre-cycle) to 65.71 (Cycle I) and 85.00 (Cycle II), while the class mastery rate rose from 10.71% to 57.14%, eventually reaching 92.86%. The most significant improvement occurred in the "excellent understanding" category, which surged from zero students in the pre-cycle stage to 17 students in Cycle II. These findings confirm that integrating Chromebooks (as school digital infrastructure) with Canva (as an interactive visual medium) contributes significantly to the understanding of abstract concepts such as diversity. Furthermore, this study offers a device utilization model aligned with school digitalization policies—an aspect rarely examined systematically in classroom action research for *Pancasila* Education at the elementary school level.]]>
