This study aims to examine the use of picture media in Classroom Action Research (CAR) to improve student understanding in elementary schools. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach with a library research method. Data sources were obtained from scientific journals indexed in Google Scholar, SINTA, and GARUDA, as well as relevant reference books from 2020 to 2026. Data collection was carried out through documentation, namely collecting articles and library sources related to picture media, CAR, and student understanding. Data analysis used content analysis techniques which include collecting, reviewing, grouping, and drawing conclusions from various literature sources. The results of the study consistently show that picture media is effective in improving student understanding across various subjects in elementary school. The application of picture media in the CAR cycle is able to create concrete, interesting, and meaningful learning for students. The implications of this study provide recommendations for teachers to systematically integrate picture media in CAR-based learning to improve the quality of education.
