MENUMBUHKAN ANTUSIASME BELAJAR MELALUI MEDIA AUDIO VISUAL PADA SISWA SEKOLAH DASAR SD MUHAMMADIYAH 1 CIREBON

Abstract

In the 21st century, the focus of learning has shifted from teacher to student. Educators must be able to develop learning methods in accordance with developing technology. Currently, students are not interested in learning if the lesson is only centered on the teacher and theoretical material. Thus, audio-visual media, such as learning videos, can serve as a support for active, meaningful learning and foster student enthusiasm. The aims of this study were to: 1) determine the level of students' enthusiasm for learning through audio-visual media; and 2) knowing the impact and interest of students in learning activities through audio-visual media. This research was conducted at Muhammadiyah 1 Elementary School, Cirebon City. This type of research is descriptive qualitative using data collection techniques, namely direct observation, interviews, and documentation. The results of the study show that if learning is given only through lectures, students tend not to pay attention and are engrossed in themselves. Whereas when learning uses audio- visual media students feel very happy and excited after the lesson is presented with audio-visual media, namely learning videos. Therefore audio-visual media can increase students' enthusiasm for learning in elementary schools.
