Abstract

Kondisi pembelajaran IPA saat ini masih didominasi metode konvensional seperti ceramah dan diskusi, dengan penggunaan media yang umumnya bersifat visual dan kurang interaktif. Media digital seperti YouTube, Quizizz, dan Canva memang telah digunakan, namun belum sepenuhnya mendukung keterlibatan aktif peserta didik dan masih menghadapi kendala teknis seperti keterbatasan perangkat dan akses internet. Oleh karena itu, dikembangkan media EcoTrack Explorer menggunakan Adobe Animate yang dapat diakses secara offline maupun online dan mendukung aktivitas eksploratif peserta didik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengembangkan EcoTrack Explorer, sebuah media pembelajaran interaktif berbasis game-based learning pada materi keseimbangan ekosistem untuk peserta didik sekolah dasar. Pengembangan dilakukan menggunakan pendekatan Design-Based Research (DBR) model Reeves yang terdiri atas empat tahapan: identifikasi dan analisis masalah praktis, pengembangan solusi awal, uji coba dan revisi, serta refleksi terhadap proses dan hasil. Teknik pengumpulan data meliputi wawancara, angket, observasi, dan dokumentasi. Hasil validasi menunjukkan bahwa media ini sangat valid, dengan skor 94,28% dari ahli media dan 96,36% dari ahli materi. Uji coba terbatas dan luas menunjukkan bahwa media ini efektif mendorong motivasi belajar, partisipasi aktif, serta pemahaman konsep ekosistem. Beberapa kekurangan yang ditemukan antara lain penyajian umpan balik kuis yang masih kurang informatif serta kecenderungan peserta didik terlalu fokus pada aspek kompetisi. Simpulan dari penelitian ini adalah bahwa EcoTrack Explorer layak dan efektif digunakan sebagai media pembelajaran interaktif berbasis game-based learning dalam pembelajaran IPA di sekolah dasar. The current state of science learning in elementary schools is still largely dominated by conventional methods such as lectures and discussions, with the use of media that tends to be visual and lacks interactivity. Although digital tools like YouTube, Quizizz, and Canva have been employed, they have not fully supported active student engagement and often face technical challenges such as limited devices and internet access. Therefore, EcoTrack Explorer was developed using Adobe Animate to be accessible both online and offline, aiming to support students' exploratory learning activities. This study aims to develop EcoTrack Explorer, an interactive instructional media based on game-based learning for teaching the topic of ecosystem balance in elementary science education. The development process employed the Design-Based Research (DBR) approach by Reeves, which includes four stages: identifying and analyzing practical problems, developing initial solutions, iterative testing and revision, and reflecting on the process and outcomes. Data collection techniques included interviews, questionnaires, observations, and documentation. Validation results indicated that the media is highly valid, receiving a score of 94.28% from media experts and 96.36% from subject matter experts. Both limited and extensive trials showed that the media effectively promotes learning motivation, active participation, conceptual understanding of ecosystems, and environmental awareness. Identified weaknesses include less informative quiz feedback and a tendency among students to overly focus on competition. The study concludes that EcoTrack Explorer is a feasible and effective interactive media tool for implementing game-based learning in elementary science education.
