The development of information technology encourages innovation in learning methods, one of which is through digital educational games. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of Wordwall educational game-based learning media in improving elementary school students' 21st century skills, such as critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, and communication. The method used is a literature study by analyzing various scientific sources and relevant research. The results showed that Wordwall is able to increase students' motivation and interest in learning through interactive features and a variety of games that are easily adapted to the subject matter. Obstacles faced include limited access to technology and teacher readiness, which can be overcome with intensive training and provision of adequate facilities. Therefore, Wordwall is proven to be effective and relevant as a learning media that supports the 21st century learning process in elementary schools. It is recommended that the utilization of Wordwall be optimized through continuous training for teachers and provision of adequate technological facilities to improve the quality of learning.

Advancements in digital technology have triggered various innovations in teaching methods, including the use of video as a learning tool. This paper aims to investigate in depth how the application of video in the learning process can improve the quality of education for elementary school students through a literature review approach. Data were obtained from scientific journals from the last five years and relevant books from the last ten years. The research indicates that the use of video in learning has a positive effect on enhancing conceptual understanding, student motivation, learner engagement, and overall learning achievement. Appropriate, engaging video use that aligns with the development of elementary school-age children can be one of the ways to tackle educational challenges in the 21st century.

This study aims to investigate the implementation of project-based learning (PjBL) in improving students independence at the elementary school students. Independent learning is a crucial aspect in students' academic and personal development enable them to take their own steps, organize themselves, and take responsibility for their learning process. Through a classroom action study approach, this study involved students and teachers in several elementary school classes implementing PjBL in various subjects. Data were obtained through observation, interview interactions, and examination of project documents made by students. The research findings indicate that the implementation of PjBL significantly improves various aspects of student independence, such as the ability to plan, implement, and assess tasks independently, as well as encouraging student motivation and confidence in learning. Challenges and strategies for effective PjBL implementation were also identified in this study, providing practical insights for educators who wish to apply this approach to empower the independence of elementary school students' learning.

The literacy level of primary school-age children in Indonesia is still relatively low, which has an impact on children's academic ability and cognitive development. This study aims to identify and analyze the factors that influence the lack of literacy in primary school-age children. The method used was literature study and field observation with a qualitative approach. The results show that low literacy is caused by several main factors, namely the lack of reading habits at home, limited facilities and interesting reading materials, less varied learning methods, and the minimal role of teachers and parents in fostering interest in reading. In addition, the influence of technological developments also plays a role in diverting children's attention from reading activities. The conclusion of this study emphasizes the importance of collaboration between schools, families and communities in creating an environment that supports an early literacy culture.  

This study examines how digital technology can help boost elementary school students’ interest in learning the Indonesian language. As technology continues to influence the way education is delivered, incorporating digital tools into the classroom has become increasingly important. The study examines how interactive learning techniques, including educational games, digital storytelling, and multimedia presentations, can enhance the engagement and enjoyment of language learning for elementary students. A qualitative descriptive methodology was used, with data collected through interviews with both teachers and students, classroom observations, and the review of relevant documents. The results indicate that digital technology significantly contributes to increasing students' motivation, participation, and curiosity. Interactive digital tools foster a more lively and enjoyable learning atmosphere, making it easier for students to grasp and relate to the content. Teachers also reported that students became more active during lessons and demonstrated improved comprehension and vocabulary usage.The study concludes that integrating digital technology into Indonesian language lessons can shift traditional teaching methods toward more student-centered and engaging learning. It is recommended that schools invest in proper digital infrastructure and provide training for teachers to fully benefit from interactive learning approaches  

In the era of modern education, teachers are expected to create a creative and interactive learning environment. One approach that is increasingly being implemented is game-based learning combined with literacy enhancement at the elementary school level. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of this method in improving student learning outcomes. Data were collected through interviews with teachers at SDN 08 Salimpaung and supported by literature from ten scientific journals. The analysis results indicate that this strategy can improve student participation, conceptual understanding, and learning motivation.

In the learning process, students often encounter various obstacles. One common challenge is their difficulty in understanding the material presented by teachers, especially when the explanations are too abstract. To address this issue, appropriate instructional media are needed to help achieve learning objectives. The use of such media can support teachers in delivering content more effectively. As science and technology continue to evolve, instructional media must also adapt to create a learning environment that aligns with current developments. One form of media that can be utilized is educational video. This study aims to explore the use of video media in delivering instructional content. The method used is a literature review of previous research findings. The results indicate that video-based learning media can serve as an effective tool for teachers to present learning materials in a more engaging and comprehensible way.
