The influence of skills in the learning process of students to the students test scores was 0,616. It means, there are other variables which influence the test scores as big as 0,384. Comparative tests between pre-test and post-test (t test) was t = 12,2*, means that there was difference in learning outcomes before and after treatment. Alat permainan edukasi adalah salah satu media berbasis simulasi didesain untuk menstimulasikan permasalahan yang ada, sehingga diperoleh esensi ilmu yang dapat digunakan untuk menyelesaikan masalah.Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan tujuan menerapkan pendidikan karakter berbasis tematik dengan memanfaatkan alat permainan edukatif.
