Abstract:The development of digital technology has transformed how elementary school children interact with information through the dominance of images, videos, and interactive media, while instructional practices remain largely…
text-based and verbal. The mismatch between children’s neurocognitive characteristics and text-based instructional design creates a pedagogical gap that may hinder memory retention, attention, and learning motivation. This study aims to analyze the urgency of visual-based learning and the impact of textual design incompatibility on student learning outcomes in the digital era. The study employs a systematic literature review approach by synthesizing findings from neuroscience, cognitive psychology, and multimedia learning theory relevant to elementary education. The results indicate that the visual system has a strong neurobiological foundation, supports faster information processing, enhances long-term retention, and strengthens the formation of conceptual mental models when integrated with verbal narration. The findings also reveal that digitalization without instructional design grounded in cognitive principles risks generating excessive cognitive load and the screen inferiority effect. The study concludes that adaptive visual integration based on multimedia principles and cognitive load management constitutes a fundamental strategy for improving the quality of elementary education. The novelty of this research lies in its integrative neuro-pedagogical approach, which systematically connects neuroscience findings, learning theories, and instructional design practices to reconstruct the paradigm of twenty-first-century learning.
Abstract:Science education at the elementary school level plays a crucial role in fostering scientific thinking, curiosity, and problem-solving skills from an early age. Nevertheless, science instruction in elementary schools often…
en remains teacher-centered, verbalistic, and insufficient in promoting meaningful scientific literacy. In response to these challenges, neuroscience provides a theoretical and empirical foundation for designing learning media that align with how the brain processes, stores, and retrieves information. This study aims to systematically examine the integration of neuroscience principles into science learning media and their effects on elementary students' scientific literacy. A Systematic Literature Review (SLR) was conducted using the PICO framework (Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome). Relevant peer-reviewed studies published between 2019 and 2024 were retrieved from Scopus, Google Scholar, ERIC, and DOAJ databases. The review followed four stages: identification, selection, quality appraisal, and thematic synthesis. The results indicate that neuroscience-based interventions—such as Augmented Reality (AR), Brain-Based Learning (BBL), interactive multimedia, and multisensory instructional strategies—consistently improve students' motivation, attention, conceptual understanding, critical thinking, and scientific literacy compared to conventional instructional approaches. The novelty of this study lies in its systematic synthesis of neuroscience-based science learning media through a PICO-oriented framework, highlighting the interaction between cognitive, affective, and technological dimensions of learning. The findings provide important implications for science education, particularly in guiding the development of neuroscience-informed learning media and instructional designs to enhance scientific literacy in elementary schools.

tujuan pendidikan. Pembelajaran kolaboratif merupakan pendekatan yang menciptakan lingkungan belajar yang mendukung interaksi antar siswa. Komunikasi dan kolaborasi merupakan aspek penting dalam pendidikan abad ke-21. Namun, keterampilan komunikasi dan kolaborasi sering kali sulit dikembangkan di kelas. Penelitian ini menyoroti pentingnya pemahaman konsep neurosains dalam pembelajaran untuk mengoptimalkan proses pembelajaran. Neuroscience adalah cabang ilmu yang mempelajari otak dan sistem saraf. Dengan memahami bagaimana otak merespons informasi dan berinteraksi dengan orang lain, kita dapat merancang lingkungan belajar yang lebih baik untuk mengembangkan keterampilan komunikasi dan kolaborasi. Memasukan konsep ilmu saraf ke dalam pembelajaran juga telah menghasilkan teori pembelajaran yang didasarkan pada pemahaman tentang cara kerja otak. Meneliti hubungan antara ilmu saraf dan keterampilan komunikasi dan kolaborasi di sekolah memainkan peran penting dalam meningkatkan kualitas pendidikan dan mempersiapkan siswa untuk masa depan. Penelitian ini memberikan gambaran tentang bagaimana ilmu saraf dapat berkontribusi pada pengembangan keterampilan komunikasi dan kolaborasi dalam lingkungan pembelajaran.
