Abstract

Online learning is a learning method that uses game applications that have been specifically designed to assist in the learning process. Online technology allows us to continue to interact with students, both one-way and two-way. Game-based learning is a learning method that uses game applications that have been specifically designed to assist in the learning process. Children generally like games, so the use of game-based learning is suitable for the current digital generation. Our game-based learning can provide stimulus to three important parts of learning that are rational, intellectual and psychomotor. We don't need to be afraid if we don't have a background as a game developer or are less technologically literate if we want to implement games that have been specifically designed to assist in the learning process. In learning mathematics in elementary schools, it is necessary to implement games in every meeting as evaluation material. There are several types of games that have been used, as will be explained in this article.
