Introduction: The use of animated videos in physical education learning in primary schools has great potential in improving students' motivation and motor skills. The background of this study stems from the problem of low levels of student participation in physical education lessons, which is often caused by students' lack of motivation and understanding of the physical movements being taught.
Objective: To overcome this problem, this study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of using animated videos in increasing motivation as well as basic motor skills of lower grade elementary school students.
Methodology: The method used in this study was a true experimental design with two groups, namely the experimental group that used animated videos as learning media and the control group that did not use this media. Data were collected through motor skill tests and motivation questionnaires, then analysed using the N-Gain test to measure the difference between pre-test and post-test results.
Results: The results showed that the use of animated videos significantly contributed to improving basic motor skills as well as students' motivation to participate in physical education activities. Animated videos allow students to see and understand physical movements more clearly, which makes it easier for them to practice them. In addition, attractive animated videos are also able to increase students' level of engagement in the lesson.
Conclusions: In conclusion, the application of animated videos in physical education learning is effective for improving students' motivation and basic motor skills. Therefore, the use of this technology can be an effective solution in improving the quality of physical education in primary schools.
