Abstract
The purpose of this study was to analyze the influence of the implementation of local primacy-based comic media on students conservation attitudes. This research was a quasi-experimental that adopted and modified the design of separate sample pretest-postest designs. Two experimental schools, namely SDN 1 Gili Indah and SDN Teratak, West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia were taken purposively with a total of 52 students. Data on student conservation attitudes was collected through questionnaires. The data were converted into percentages then analyzed using the paired and independent sample t-test. The results of this research showed that there was an effect of the implementation of local primacy-based comic media to students-conservation attitudes. However, the geographical location of the school did not have an impact on students- conservation attitudes.
