Abstract
This study aims to describe the level of validity of the Pro-Based Caturalis learning model to improve the scientific literacy of elementary school students. This type of research is development research by focusing on the limited-scale trial phase. The development was carried out by involving 3 experts to assess the feasibility level of the Pro-Based Caturalis learning model with an average expert assessment of 83. Experts assessed the model developed in the valid category. The Pro-Based Caturalis Learning Model was tested in 2 elementary schools with a number of 40 students. The average scientific literacy ability of the experimental students was in the good category with an average pretest score of 68.5 and a posttest score of 74.25. The increase in scientific literacy scores is influenced by the systematic and innovative syntax of the Pro-Based Caturalis learning model. Besides, the use of technology-based learning media makes the thinking patterns of elementary school students more complex to improve scientific literacy.
