Hubungan Penggunaan Media Pembelajaran Interaktif Berbasis Gimkit dengan Keterlibatan Belajar Siswa pada Pembelajaran IPAS Kelas IV

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the relationship between the use of Gimkit-based interactive learning media and students' learning engagement in fourth-grade science (IPAS) learning at SDN Ciracas 10 Pagi. The study employed a quantitative approach using a correlational associative research method. The population consisted of all fourth-grade students at SDN Ciracas 10 Pagi, while the sample was selected using the sampling technique determined by the researcher. Data were collected through questionnaires measuring the use of Gimkit-based interactive learning media and students' learning engagement, both of which had been tested for validity and reliability. Data analysis included normality testing, linearity testing, Pearson Product-Moment correlation analysis, and simple linear regression. The results revealed a positive and significant relationship between the use of Gimkit-based interactive learning media and students' learning engagement. This finding was indicated by a Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.855 with a significance value of 0.001 (< 0.05), demonstrating a very strong relationship. Furthermore, the simple regression analysis produced a value of 81.517 with a significance level of 0.001 (< 0.05), indicating that the use of Gimkit-based interactive learning media significantly influenced students' learning engagement. The findings suggest that Gimkit enhances students' active participation, attention, motivation, and enthusiasm during the learning process, thereby creating a more interactive, innovative, and student-centered learning environment.
