Abstract

This research examines the obstacles in learning science in elementary schools and seeks appropriate solutions to overcome these problems. The research method applied in this research is literature review. Despite its importance in the curriculum, science learning is faced with challenges such as the complexity of the material that is difficult to present according to the level of student understanding, a curriculum that is sometimes unclear, conventional teaching methods that are less interactive, and limited resources and training for teachers. In addition, the use of foreign vocabulary can also confuse students and reduce their interest. In order to overcome these obstacles, this study proposes the implementation of a diverse learning model, focusing on the Round Robin Brainstorming model which offers a cooperative approach. This model encourages students’ interaction and collaboration in groups, allowing them to share ideas and thoughts related to science materials. The results show that the implementation of this model can overcome problems in science learning, increase student engagement and reduce barriers related to understanding foreign vocabulary. In addition, this study emphasizes the importance of developing teachers’ skills in designing innovative and interactive learning. Regular professional training and the use of educational technology can help teachers expand their learning methods. By overcoming these barriers, science learning in primary schools can become more effective, varied and satisfying, and help students understand science concepts better.
