Abstract

Learning natural science in grade IV SDN Wujil 01 shows that 76% of students ‘cognitive abilities are still below the minimum completeness criteria and 18% of students’ scientific attitudes are still low. Therefore, it needs to be innovative solutions to improve science learning in the classroom; it is media by combining game elements. One of them is the science monopoly game. This study aims to determine how effective the use of science monopoly games on the cognitive abilities and scientific attitudes of elementary students. In addition, it can be used as a strategy for elementary school teachers and prospective elementary school teachers in preparing a fun science learning process. The type of research used is experimental research with a two-group posttest only design. The data collection techniques used was documentation, tests, and observations. The data analysis involved 1) Test instruments using the Anates V.4 application program covering the validity of the test, the reliability test, the difference between the results and the difficulty level of the questions; 2) Normality test Kolmogorov-Smirnov test in PASW Statistics 18 software. 3) Homogeneity test in this study using the levene test (test of homogeneity of variences) in PASW Statistics 18 software; 4) the similarity of the control class learning average (83.55> 71.26). In addition, the scientific attitude that elementary students have during the learning process uses the science monopoly game in the very good category with a percentage of 84.02%. On average, it uses the independent sample t-test with PASW Statistics 18 software. The results showed that learning using science monopoly games was effective in improving the cognitive abilities and scientific attitudes of elementary students. This is indicated by the significance level 0.008 and 0.005 <0.05, while the average value of learning science in the experimental class using the science monopoly game is higher than the average value of the control class.
