Analysis of Interactive Multimedia Needs in Strengthening Character Responsibility in Pancasila Education Learning in Elementary Schools
This study was motivated by the limitations of innovative learning media in internalizing students' character of responsibility in Pancasila education learning in elementary schools. The purpose of this study was to analyze the need for interactive multimedia as a supporting medium for strengthening the character of responsibility. The research used a descriptive qualitative method with data collection through questionnaires, semi-structured interviews, and observations. The data were analyzed descriptively using triangulation techniques to increase validity. The research subjects consisted of 157 fourth-grade students and 10 teachers in elementary schools in the Kemantren Kraton area, Yogyakarta City. The results of the study indicate that students' character of responsibility is still low, teacher-parent collaboration is not yet optimal, and there is a high need for effective and contextual interactive multimedia. These findings emphasize the need to develop interactive multimedia that not only supports the understanding of Pancasila Education material but also optimally strengthens the formation of character of responsibility in elementary school students.
