Learning that utilizes cellular technology that contains material in science-math stories be-comes one of the ways of utilizing technological developments in learning activi-ties. The study used a pretest-posttest control group design with more than one experimental group. There were two experimental groups from two schools that experienced learning with science-math stories based on digital learning as digital literacy media, and one control group from another school who carried out litera-cy activities using reading books in the class and the library. The use of science-math stories based on digital learning as a digital literacy media can improve problem-solving skills for elementary school students. The main content in the form of realistic fiction illustrated stories with adventure themes that raise envi-ronmental problems to be solved becomes the main strategy in improving the ability to solve the problems of elementary school students.
