Abstract
This research intends to identify the effectiveness of Science learning through Flash Media and Students' Worksheet using constructivist approach and reviewed by interest, motivation, and learning achievement of primary school students. This is a quasi-experimental research which the dependent variable is learning interest of Science, learning motivation of Science, and learning achievement of Science. Meanwhile, the independent variable is the use of Flash using constructivist approach of experimental class and students' worksheet media using constructivist approach of control class. Subject of this research is 23 students of experimental class and 18 students of control class. Instrument used to collect data consists of: questionnaire of learning interest of Science, questionnaire of learning motivation of Science, and test of learning achievement of Science. Data are analyzed through descriptive statistic technique to describe the interest, motivation, and learning achievement of students on Science, and inferential statistic through t-test on significant level of 5% (? = 0,05). The result of this research revealed that students' interest is 0,0008 (ttest) on significant level of = 0,99; students' motivation is -0.33 (ttest) on significant level of = 0,73; and the result of learning achievement is -0.31 (ttest)on significant level of = 0,75. Therefore, it can be concluded that Science learning through flash media and students' worksheet using constructivist approach is effective to improve interest, motivation, and learning achievement of primary school students.
