Abstract: Reproductive health learning needs more intentions and efforts to be successful. The use of appropriate learning media can positively help this problem. Learning games are important to be used by teachers to make the learning process in the classroom more interesting. The purpose of this study is to develop reproductive health learning games to increase gender awareness for junior high school students. The experimental design of pre-test and post-test was employed to evaluate the effectiveness of the games while the questionnaire was used as instruments to measure gender awareness. Qualitative and quantitative descriptive methods were used as data analysis techniques. The results showed a significant improvement in students’ gender awareness from the pre-test with an average of 2.45 to 3.84 in the post-test. It can be interpreted that using learning games on reproductive health learning materials can increase gender awareness of junior high school students.
