PENGARUH MODEL GAME BASED LEARNING TERHADAP MOTIVASI BELAJAR PESERTA DIDIK PADA PEMBELAJARAN IPAS KELAS IV UPT SDN MANURUKI KOTA MAKASSAR

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of the application of the Game Based Learning

model on students' learning motivation in the subject of Science in class IV UPT

SDN Manuruki, Makassar City. This study was motivated by the low level of student

learning motivation during the learning process. An alternative learning model that

can be used to improve student learning motivation is the Game Based Learning

model. The data in this study were analyzed using descriptive statistical analysis

techniques and SPSS 26 statistical analysis. The results showed a significant

increase in student learning motivation after the application of the Game Based

Learning model, with an average post-test score reaching 85.65%. The hypothesis

test produced a significance value (Sig. 2-tailed) of 0.000 which is smaller than 0.05,

so H₀ is rejected and H₁ is accepted. Thus, it can be concluded that the Game Based

Learning model has a significant effect on student learning motivation. These

findings indicate that game-based learning is able to create a more interesting and

interactive learning experience, as well as encourage active student participation in

the learning process. This research contributes to the development of innovative

learning strategies that are relevant to be implemented in elementary schools,

especially in increasing learning motivation in science subjects.
