Abstract

Elementary school-age children experience a phase called formal operations, as stated by Jean Piaget in his theory of child cognitive development. Where at this stage the child begins to learn thoroughly involving all his five senses, and in the learning process the child needs something concrete and clear, therefore multisensory learning can improve students’ metacognitive abilities. Multisensory learning is an approach in learning that is focused and maximizes the five senses possessed by students. The purpose of multisensory learning that involves various senses in lessons, such as touch or sound, is that students will better understand and retain information. This strategy can be especially useful for students with learning disabilities, such as dyslexia. This type of literature review is an integrative review in which there are assessments, criticisms, and synthesizing literature on research topics so that new theoretical frameworks and perspectives can emerge. The result is that learning becomes more focused and the focus of the material content can be conveyed well to students.
