Pengembangan Literasi Baca Tulis Berbasis Batu Cerita (Story Stones) Dalam Meningkatkan Kemampuan Naratif Siswa Sekolah Dasar

Reading and writing literacy and narrative ability are essential skills that need to be developed in elementary school. However, students may experience difficulties in generating ideas and organizing stories coherently. This study aimed to develop a reading and writing literacy medium based on story stones and examine its potential to improve elementary students’ narrative abilities. The study employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the ADDIE model, which consists of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. Narrative ability data were analyzed descriptively using pretest scores, posttest scores, and N-Gain. Measurements involving 28 students showed an increase in the mean score from 59.46 to 82.14, representing a gain of 22.68 points and an N-Gain of 0.56, categorized as moderate. These findings indicate that Story Stones has the potential to serve as a concrete, visual learning medium that helps students generate ideas, organize story sequences, and produce oral and written narratives. This medium may provide an interactive alternative for literacy learning in elementary schools.
