Environment is the important thing in the life cycle. Pollution to environment can give bad effect to living thing in there, including human being. This can be a serious problem if there is no thing to handle well. Introduce about the important of living environment need to be given earlier to children, in order to make them used to do environment preservation. Topic about living thing and environment are already included content standard in Elementary School curriculum. This topic is integrated with the other in the nature science subject.<p> <br /> <br /> <br /> Advancement of information and communication technology can be used in education field. E-learning as one of information and communication technology advancement can be used and developed here. E-learning is a media to learn about something using electronic media. This is possible to make an interactive learning. Interactive e-learning through an intranet can be implemented in formal education start on Elementary School. This can be included animation and game to motivate student and easy to understand. It is consider that children have high interested in audio visual technology.<p> <br /> <br /> <br /> On this research, analysis and design are done to develop an interactive e-learning media by creating nature science learning content about living things and environments for Elementary School, especially 1st level to 3rd level, based on Content Standard and Graduate Competency Standard which are regulations by government. These contents are served as tutorial and evaluation through animation and simple game using Problem Based Learning (PBL) method. Research location is Bandung. The application is tested on two Elementary Schools, there are SDN Cicabe and SDN Banjarsari, and a children's group for learning in Cicaheum. System is tested functionally. Applications for content are tested through a survey. Data collection is done by using questionnaire, taking observation, and taking interview to students and teachers.<p> <br /> <br /> <br /> This survey shows that animation and game are possible to be used as learning tools to deliver the content of nature science subject interactively in Elementary School. Animation and game are potential to create fun learning environment and to increase student’s learning motivation. This makes the student able to understand topics easier and faster than before. Student’s ability to imagine many events that they have seen through this application can be shown on student’s ability to re-tell about those events well and fluently. By using this media, learning and teaching activities in Elementary School can be happened more effective than before.
