Abstract

This study aims to develop and evaluate interactive multimedia assisted by Edugames for Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS) learning in elementary schools. The study employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the Alessi and Trollip model, which comprises the stages of planning, design, and development. The research subjects consisted of 36 fifth-grade students and 14 expert validators. Data collection techniques included questionnaires, observations, interviews, and learning outcome tests. Validity was analyzed using the Fuzzy Delphi method, while practicality and effectiveness were evaluated through descriptive quantitative analysis with N-Gain. The results demonstrated that the product possessed a high level of validity, showing a defuzzification value of 0.71 and a consensus level of 96.40%. The practicality rate reached 93.41%, placing it in the highly practical category. The effectiveness of the product was evidenced by an increase in learning outcomes from a pretest average of 55.37 to a posttest average of 84.44, yielding an N-Gain score of 0.68 (medium category). Consequently, the developed Edugame-assisted interactive multimedia is declared valid, practical, and effective in enhancing students' conceptual understanding in IPAS learning. This study contributes to the advancement of technology-based learning media by integrating a comprehensive product development and evaluation process using the Fuzzy Delphi approach
