Abstract

Problem-based learning is a learning method often used for solving problems, where students can gather independent information and get real experience in the learning process. The problem of environmental damage that occurs in Kampung Kramat, Malang City, Indonesia, can be reduced by eco-pedagogy in early childhood, to internalize environmental care and awareness attitudes. The gamification approach was chosen to attract children’s interest and participation in eco-pedagogy learning. Various game features in delivering eco-pedagogy with a problem-based learning model make the series of learning activities increasingly attractive to achieve learning goals. The method used was a quasi-experimental research with one-group pre-test-post-test design to see the effectiveness of the problem- based learning strategy with a gamification approach to the mastery of eco-pedagogy materials for children aged 4-7 years in Kampung Kramat Malang. The findings showed that the effectiveness of the application of this model increased the mastery of concepts in children up to 10.34% with a significance is 95%. This model subsequently influenced self-habituation and environmental care. This proves that problem- based learning with the gamification approach to eco-pedagogy for children 4-7 years was very effective.
