Abstract

This study aims to develop and evaluate an Android-based learning media application, “Smart Study,” designed for fourth-grade students studying Integrated Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS) in Indonesian primary schools. The study follows the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation) model to ensure a systematic product development process. The application integrates interactive learning elements such as texts, images, videos, and quizzes. Results showed that the media was rated "very interesting" in terms of content (mean score: 3.34), design (3.21), and language (3.36). Learning effectiveness was demonstrated through a significant difference in post-test scores between experimental (88.47) and control groups (79.82), with an N-gain score of 0.67 (medium category). These findings suggest that the Smart Study application is a feasible and effective tool for enhancing IPAS learning in elementary education.
