Abstract
The existence and use of technology can be a means of maximizing the potential of students' thinking abilities, including the ability to solve problems. Learning that utilizes cellular technology that contains material in science-math stories be-comes one of the ways of utilizing technological developments in learning activi-ties. The study used a pretest-posttest control group design with more than one experimental group. There were two experimental groups from two schools that experienced learning with science-math stories based on digital learning as digital literacy media, and one control group from another school who carried out litera-cy activities using reading books in the class and the library. The use of science-math stories based on digital learning as a digital literacy media can improve problem-solving skills for elementary school students. The main content in the form of realistic fiction illustrated stories with adventure themes that raise envi-ronmental problems to be solved becomes the main strategy in improving the ability to solve the problems of elementary school students.
Highlights
Advances in technology and information in the globalization era need to be balanced with the development of all matters relating to education as an effort to improve the intelligence of the nation's generations
It can be concluded that there are differences in the ability to solve problems between students who take literacy activities using science learning stories based on digital learning and students who do not use science stories based on digital learning
A paired t-test analysis was performed to determine differences in the ability to solve problems in the experimental class before and after the literacy activities were carried out using science learning based on digital learning
Summary
Advances in technology and information in the globalization era need to be balanced with the development of all matters relating to education as an effort to improve the intelligence of the nation's generations. The most important role of education is to prepare the laborers in the future and the community to face challenges at that time [1],[2]. Speigel [3] said that when faced with global competition and access to information and technology-based, there will always be a need for self-renewal. National education implies the development of various aspects, especially the ability to think as a provision in the future. Guiding and directing the younger generation to be smart is one of the main goals of education [4]
