The Effectiveness of Canva-Based Moral Education Media with an Deep Learning Approach in Improving the Learning Climate of Elementary School Students

Abstract

This research is motivated by the lack of optimal learning climate in moral education learning in elementary schools, which is shown by the lack of maximum student involvement, interaction, and comfort during the learning process. This condition demands an innovation in learning media that is not only visually appealing, but also able to encourage in-depth learning engagement. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of Canva-based moral education media with an in-depth learning approach in improving the learning climate of grade II elementary school students. This research uses research and development methods through the stages of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The subject of the study was a grade II student at SD Negeri Pergiwatu Wetan, Kulon Progo Regency. Data was collected through questionnaires, observations, and documentation, then analyzed in a quantitative descriptive manner. The results of the study showed that there was an increase in the percentage of students' learning climate from 79.39 percent in the stage before the use of media with the good category to 87.04 percent in the stage after the use of media with the very good category. This increase shows a positive change in the aspects of student engagement, interaction, and learning comfort. Students become more active, enthusiastic, and responsive in participating in learning. These findings show that the integration of Canva-based media with a deep learning approach makes a real contribution to creating a more conducive learning climate. Thus, the media developed is declared effective and has novelty as an alternative to learning innovations in moral education in elementary schools.
