Abstract


The enhancement of Environmental Literacy in elementary education is critical, necessitating a shift from conventional methods to active strategies like Problem-Based Learning (PBL), whose effectiveness is significantly amplified by integrating Interactive Multimedia to boost student motivation and clarify complex concepts. This study utilized a Multi-Database Bibliometric Analysis to systematically map the intellectual structure and empirical trends in this domain. Data were collected from seven databases (Scopus, WoS, ERIC, PsycINFO, Garuda, Neliti, SINTA) from 2018–2023. An initial 312 articles were screened, resulting in a final verified dataset of 12 studies focused on quantitative/mixed designs with elementary students. The analysis confirms a strong positive trend, with empirical findings validating the significant impact of the integrated approach on enhancing learning outcomes and critical thinking. The bibliometric mapping revealed three key interconnected thematic clusters: (1) Core Human and Motivation, (2) Technology and Digital Learning, and (3) Methodology and Outcomes (linking PBL and learning outcomes). This study concludes that the fusion of PBL and interactive multimedia constitutes a robust and transformative strategy for enhancing environmental literacy, providing a data-driven confirmation of its efficacy and establishing a clear roadmap for future research, while highlighting the need to address infrastructure and teacher training challenges.
