This research aims to discuss the application of cognitive learning theory in the learning process in elementary schools. The main focus is on how cognitive approaches can improve students' understanding and skills. The research methods used were literature studies and field observations in several elementary schools. Cognitive learning theory was developed by experts such as Jean Piaget and Jerome Bruner, who emphasized the importance of internal mental processes in understanding information. Piaget described four stages of children's cognitive development, while Bruner emphasized discovery-based learning. The research results show that a cognitive approach to learning can increase learning effectiveness, student motivation, as well as critical and creative thinking abilities. Students taught using cognitive methods show active participation in class activities, increased understanding of the material, and higher academic scores compared to traditional learning methods. Teachers report that this method helps students develop higher-order thinking and problem-solving skills. The practical implications of this research suggest that cognitive learning methods should be widely applied in elementary schools to optimize students' learning potential.

In science and science learning, the emphasis is on concepts related to people's lives and the environment. Students are expected to have basic abilities for logical and critical thinking, curiosity, inquiry, problem solving, and skills in social life. The humanistic learning model views students as subjects who are free to determine the direction of their lives. Students are directed to be fully responsible for their own lives and also for the lives of others. In this research, researchers used a qualitative research approach. Several approaches that are worth using in this method are dialogical, reflective and expressive approaches. The dialogical approach invites students to think together critically and creatively. The teacher does not act as a teacher who only provides material intake that students need as a whole, but the teacher only acts as a facilitator and dialogue partner. The population in this research is all teachers and students. Meanwhile, the samples taken in this research were school principals, science and science teachers and students. Humanistic education in science and science learning is an alternative in realizing education that has a very significant influence on future generations. Applying humanistic education in learning can increase students' intrinsic motivation. So that students tend to be enthusiastic and involve themselves actively in learning when they are listened to, appreciated, cared for and treated well. Applying humanistic education to the science and science learning process grade V at SD Negeri 050728 Tanjung Pura can be done using procedures such as planning, implementation and evaluation.
