Abstract
Students^ numerical and scientific literacy in elementary school, needs to be developed to face the challenges and demand in the 21st century. This ability requires to be trained through learning activities at school. Mathematics and science are two of subjects in elementary school that aim to develop students^ numeracy and scientific literacy. This study aims to develop mathematics and science teaching materials in animate geoscience based on the CPA approach, with the goal of improving elementary students^ numeracy and scientific literacy. This study uses research and development methods, with the procedure following the 4-D model. The 4-D development model encompasses four stages: define, design, develop, and disseminate, which are employed in the creation of mathematics and science teaching materials. The instruments utilized in this study included assessment sheets for teaching materials, evaluated by experts, as well as test items measuring numerical and scientific literacy. The participants of research study were 28 students in fifth-grade from an elementary school. The results showed that mathematics and scientific teaching materials using Adobe animate geoscience based on the CPA approach, could improve students^ numerical and scientific literacy. Thus, teaching materials that developed in this study can be utilized for mathematics and scientific learning in elementary, for future research.
Keywords: numerical and scientific literacy, animate geoscience, CPA approach
