Improving Financial Literacy as an Effort to Achieve Economic Equity through Educational Board Games
Abstract
This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of educational board games in improving people's financial literacy as an effort to promote economic equity. The research employs a quasi-experimental approach with a pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design, involving 30 respondents aged 20–35 years. Data were analyzed using the Paired Sample T-test. The results show that the use of educational board games has a significant effect on improving people's financial literacy. This is evidenced by an increase in the average posttest score of financial literacy after the educational intervention through the board game. These findings support the use of educational board games as a tool to enhance financial literacy, which is essential for making economic decisions, thereby contributing to economic equality and poverty alleviation in Indonesia.
