Abstract

Pancasila Education in elementary schools aims to develop students' character and instill the values of Pancasila. However, the learning motivation of fourth-grade students at SD Negeri 6 Penatih was still relatively low, as indicated by a lack of enthusiasm, low student participation in the learning process, and teacher-centered instruction. This study aimed to determine the effect of implementing the Problem Based Learning (PBL) model assisted by digital comic media on the learning motivation of fourth-grade students in Pancasila Education, particularly on the topic of Mutual Cooperation (Gotong Royong) at SD Negeri 6 Penatih. The Problem Based Learning model emphasizes problem-solving activities to encourage students' critical thinking and active participation in learning, while digital comic media helps students understand the material through engaging presentations suitable for elementary school students' characteristics. This study employed a pre-experimental research design using the One Group Pretest-Posttest Design involving 32 fourth-grade students selected through saturated sampling. Data were collected through a Likert-scale questionnaire, observation, and documentation, then analyzed using a normality test and hypothesis testing with the Paired Sample T-Test. The results showed that the average student learning motivation score increased from 68.13 in the pretest to 70.50 in the posttest. The hypothesis testing results revealed a Sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.000 < 0.05, indicating that H1 was accepted and H0 was rejected. It can be concluded that the implementation of the Problem Based Learning model assisted by digital comic media had a significant effect on the learning motivation of fourth-grade students in Pancasila Education on the topic of Mutual Cooperation at SD Negeri 6 Penatih.
