The study employed a quantitative approach with a quasi experimental design using a posttest only nonequivalent control group design. The subjects consisted of fifth grade students who were divided into an experimental group and a control group through random sampling. Data were collected using a Likert scale questionnaire. Data analysis was conducted using an independent sample t-test. The results showed that the calculated t-value of 8.324 was greater than the t-table value of 2.034 with a significance value of 0.000 < 0.05. These results indicate that the case study method has an effect on students' civic awareness. Case-based learning provides students with opportunities to understand civic issues contextually.
