Abstract

Teachers can use both game-based and digital media to support social studies learning, and comparative evidence can help inform their instructional choices. This study examined whether Economic Monopoly and Canva learning media produced different outcomes among fourth-grade students and whether each medium improved achievement. The researchers employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design and collected data through pretests and posttests administered to students who learned with the respective media. They assessed normality and homogeneity, then used an independent-samples t-test to examine between-group differences and N-Gain analysis to estimate learning improvement. The results showed a statistically significant difference in learning outcomes between the two groups, with a significance value below 0.05; the researchers therefore accepted the alternative hypothesis and rejected the null hypothesis. N-Gain results indicated that both groups improved after instruction, while students using Economic Monopoly achieved greater gains than those using Canva. These findings suggest that both media can support social studies learning, with Economic Monopoly producing greater improvement in the context of this study.
