PENGUATAN KETERAMPILAN MENYIMAK SISWA SD MELALUI MEDIA ANIMASI EDUKASI

Abstract

Many elementary school students still experience obstacles and challenges in listening skills due to inadequate attention. The purpose of community service activities on listening skills in elementary schools is to support the development of students' language competencies as a whole and help students understand oral information better, starting from capturing main ideas, important information, to summarizing the contents of the listening. The community service activities were carried out on 31 sixth-grade students of SDN Sumberkedawung I, Leces, Probolinggo Regency through learning using educational animation media. The analysis results showed that 90% of participants were able to re-explain the meaning, purpose, and benefits of listening and convey the main information from the animated show coherently. In addition, all students actively participated during the activity and showed an increased understanding of listening skills based on the results of observations and performance assessments. These findings indicate that educational animation media is effective for strengthening listening skills in elementary school students.
