AbstractEducation of oral and dental hygiene for elementary students is often constrained by the nature of children who are easily saturated, so that media and games need to be an interactive, interesting and fun simulation that entices their interest and curiosity in learning. The purpose of this research is to develop a web-based dental health ladder snake game for oral health education of the elementary school students in Indonesia. The analysis, design, development, implementation and evaluation model approach is applied and tested by material and media experts. In this study, the fifth grade elementary students were participated as a trial group, and they were asked to use the designed ladder snake game. Questionnaire about the feasibility of learning media ladder snake game using a Likert scale was developed. The feasibility test results showed that the material experts were 80% (very good), media experts were 75% (Good) and 83% (excellent) for elementary students.Keywords: Ladder snake game, dental health, multimedia designing.

Despite the advancement of digital technology, there is no application specializing in teaching mathematics in English for Indonesian elementary school learners. During the pandemic, teachers need online teaching media to assist them when teaching mathematics.  This article covers the project of teaching media creation for teaching Common Core mathematics to Indonesian elementary school students. The objectives of this project are creating web-based applications focusing to assist teachers to teach Mathematics in English for Indonesian Elementary students; and providing tools for the teachers in terms of material management such as curriculum and exercises; student management; and step-by-step guide during teaching in the classroom setting. Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) is the teaching method supported by the teaching media. The results of the project are two web-based applications. The first application is the Learning Application which contains the mathematics teaching materials and student management. The second application is the Teaching Guide application, which contains the step-by-step-guide for teachers in CLIL classroom setting.

Correct teeth brushing behavior in elementary school children in Indonesia is 2.8%, and in Central Java, 1.7%. The influencing factor is the lack of information sources, so it is essential to carry out dental and oral health education, "Smart dental card game model" provides learning to children through game methods so that the learning process is more exciting and enjoyable. To produce a gamification-based dental and oral health education model called "Smart dental card game model" to increase dental health maintenance knowledge and decrease the debris index score in elementary school children. Research and development (R&D) and model trials using quasi-experiment pre-test and post-test with control sample design groups were divided into two groups, 28 intervention group students and 28 control group students. The dependent variable is the knowledge and debris index of elementary school students; the independent variable is the Smart dental card game model. The sample size was calculated by using the slovin formula. Data were tested using the interclass correlation coefficient test, Anova, Wilcoxon, Mann Whitney. The smart dental card game was appropriate as a guideline in the learning process to increase elementary school students' knowledge of 2,304 ± 9.07 and reduce the debris index of 0.419 ± 0.68 compared to the control group flipchart media and dental phantom. Smart dental card game is useful to increase dental health maintenance knowledge of elementary school students

Factual conditions require the development of teaching materials in thematic learning using a scientific approach to improve the available teaching materials. This study aims to: 1) examine the factual conditions for the use of teaching materials in thematic learning in the 2013 curriculum; 2) knowing the development of scientific based thematic teaching materials for fourth grade elementary students; 3) knowing expert judgment on the feasibility of scientific-based thematic teaching materials for fourth grade elementary students; 4) knowing the effect of the use of scientifically based thematic teaching materials on the learning achievement of fourth grade elementary school students; 5) knowing the teacher's assessment of learning using thematically based thematic teaching materials for grade IV elementary school students; 6) knowing the response of students to learning using thematically based thematic teaching materials for fourth grade elementary school students. This study uses Development Research with qualitative and quantitative research designs. The development process uses the 4-D model of Thiagarajan, Semel and Semel which has been modified to be the stage of defining, designing, and developing. Teaching materials that have been validated by experts get the category of "very valid and without revision" from expert responses and teacher evaluations with agreed criteria, student responses to the use of teaching materials in learning get very good responses from students. The results of the trials using the experimental design The Before And After Design show that there is an effect of the use of scientifically based thematic teaching materials on the learning achievement of PPKn; 2) there is the influence of the use of scientifically based thematic teaching materials on social studies learning achievements; 3) there is the influence of the use of scientifically based thematic teaching materials on the learning achievement of science.
