Abstract

Pancasila Education learning in elementary schools requires instructional strategies that can optimize students' skills while fostering positive attitudes through active and meaningful learning experiences. This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of the role-playing method assisted by songs on the skills and attitudes of fourth-grade elementary school students. The study employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group design. The sample consisted of 40 students, including 22 students in the experimental class and 18 students in the control class. Data were collected through skills tests and attitude observation sheets and analyzed using the Shapiro–Wilk normality test, Levene's homogeneity test, and the Independent Samples t-test. The results indicated that the data were normally distributed (Sig. = 0.059–0.347) and homogeneous (pretest Sig. = 0.902; posttest Sig. = 0.827), indicating that the data met the assumptions for further analysis. The mean score of the experimental class increased from 66.95 to 91.27 after participating in song-assisted role-playing activities, while the control class increased from 66.56 to 86.39 through conventional instruction. Hypothesis testing revealed no significant difference in the initial abilities of the two groups (Sig. = 0.620), but a significant difference was found after the treatment was implemented (Sig. < 0.001). These findings indicate that the song-assisted role-playing method is effective in improving students' skills and attitudes in Pancasila Education learning.
