PERANCANGAN BOARDGAME PENGENALAN HEWAN SEBAGAI MEDIA PEMBELAJARAN SISWA KELAS III SDN PETUKANGAN UTARA 10 JAKARTA

ABSTRACT
This final project aims to develop an educational board game introducing animals as an interactive learning medium for third-grade students at SDN Petukangan Utara 10 Jakarta. Science learning on animal classification, reproduction, metamorphosis, and symbiosis is still dominated by textbooks, making students less engaged and limiting their understanding of the material. The design process employed observation, interviews, literature review, and audience analysis. The final design consists of a board game package including a game board, quiz cards, character pawns, a dice, and a rulebook featuring colorful cartoon-style illustrations with a forest adventure theme. This board game is expected to become an alternative non-digital learning medium that improves student engagement, supports understanding of the learning material, and creates a more interactive science learning experience.

ABSTRAK
Perancangan ini bertujuan mengembangkan boardgame edukatif pengenalan hewan sebagai media pembelajaran interaktif bagi siswa kelas III SDN Petukangan Utara 10 Jakarta. Pembelajaran IPA pada materi klasifikasi hewan, cara berkembang biak, metamorfosis, dan simbiosis masih didominasi buku teks sehingga siswa kurang tertarik dan mengalami kesulitan memahami materi. Proses perancangan dilakukan melalui observasi, wawancara, studi pustaka, dan analisis khalayak. Hasil perancangan berupa boardgame yang terdiri atas papan permainan, kartu kuis, pion karakter, dadu, dan buku panduan dengan ilustrasi bergaya kartun bertema petualangan di hutan. Boardgame ini diharapkan menjadi media pembelajaran non-digital yang mampu meningkatkan keterlibatan siswa, membantu pemahaman materi, serta menciptakan proses pembelajaran IPA yang lebih menarik dan interaktif.
