This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the Jarimatika method in enhancing elementary school students’ multiplication skills. The research stems from the issue of students’ limited understanding of multiplication concepts, often caused by monotonous and less engaging teaching methods. A literature review approach was employed by examining eight relevant previous studies. Data analysis was conducted by comparing findings across various sources. The results indicate that the Jarimatika method significantly improves student learning outcomes, both in terms of average scores and mastery levels. Moreover, it boosts students’ motivation and active participation during the learning process, proving effective across different grade levels. The use of fingers as a counting tool helps make the learning experience more tangible, enjoyable, and accessible for students. Therefore, Jarimatika is recommended as a viable alternative strategy for teachers in teaching mathematics at the elementary level, especially for multiplication topics.    

Understanding geometric concepts is an essential part of the mathematics learning process in elementary school. However, many fifth-grade students face challenges in grasping these concepts due to monotonous and less interactive learning media. These difficulties contribute to students' low comprehension of geometric concepts. The purpose of this study is to analyze the contribution of interactive media in strengthening students' understanding of geometric concepts in elementary school. The research employs a qualitative approach, with data collected through observations, interviews with teachers and students, and documentation. The findings reveal that less interactive teaching methods, the lack of concrete learning media, and an unconducive learning environment are the main factors hindering students' understanding. Increasing student participation and facilitating their comprehension of geometric concepts can be achieved by implementing interactive media such as digital simulations, animated videos, and educational games. Thus, interactive media can enhance students' learning motivation and create a more enjoyable learning atmosphere. By integrating interactive media into the mathematics learning process, students are expected to become more actively engaged, focused, and able to understand geometric concepts more effectively.

The rapid transformation of technology affects various aspects of life, including education. In elementary school learning, the use of interactive learning media is an innovative solution to improve student understanding. Conventional learning methods such as lectures often get bored quickly, especially if they rely only on textbooks. Therefore, teachers need to utilize technology to create more interesting and interactive media.One effective medium is interactive PowerPoint (PPT), which combines elements of sound, images, video, text, and animation to improve students' comprehension of the subject matter. It also allows for direct feedback, increases student participation, and accelerates concept understanding. In Pancasila and citizenship as a topic Education (PPKn) in elementary school, the use of interactive media has been proven to be able to increase interest in learning and encourage students' critical thinking. This study examines several studies on media efficacy using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) technique. Interactive PPT in learning. The The results of the study indicate that the use ofthis media significantly improves students' understanding of PPKn learning. With a more interesting and interactive approach, students are more motivated to learn and able to understand concepts more deeply. Therefore, the integration of digital media in PPKn learning is an innovative solution in enhancing the caliber of education at the elementary school level

This study explores strategies to address students' difficulties in understanding and solving mathematical word problems involving long division in elementary schools. These difficulties can stem from internal factors, such as a lack of conceptual understanding, low motivation, and inaccuracy in solving problems, as well as external factors, such as ineffective teaching methods and minimal use of instructional media. Using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, this research examines previous studies that discuss the causes of learning difficulties and possible solutions. The findings indicate that a contextual approach based on Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) and the use of concrete teaching aids can significantly enhance students' comprehension of long division. This approach helps students connect learning with real-life experiences and visualize mathematical concepts more clearly. Therefore, innovative instructional strategies are essential to improve elementary school students' understanding and numerical skills.
