Keywords: Game team tournament model and cross cultural skills INTRODUCTION Indonesia is one of the diverse countries seen from various aspects such as culture, language, ethnicity, religion, and so forth. One of the factors that make Indonesia rich in its diversity is the vast area of Indonesia that stretches from Sabang to Merauke. The vastness of Indonesia's territory and diversity has its own advantages for the Indonesian state as well as the love of the homeland, its uniqueness compared to other countries, and the attraction for foreign citizens. The above things can happen if diversity in Indonesia continues to be preserved and introduced to other countries. However, this will not happen if Indonesian citizens themselves do not recognize diversity, do not value diversity, and do not introduce diversity to other countries. Challenges continue to emerge related to preserving Indonesia's diversity such as technological developments, industrial developments and developments in other fields in this era of globalization. In the globals era, challenges related to preserving Indonesian diversity include easy entry of foreign cultures from foreign countries, the number of television shows, songs, shows, and advertisements that do not show diversity in Indonesia, as well as the number of games and social media apps that make children less likely to communicate with other children in the real world. These factors have an impact on the low level of cross-cultural skills in Indonesia especially in urban areas. As for cross-cultural skills according to mailto:1galih040990@ikpsiliwangi.ac.id mailto:2febbyfajarnugraha@gmail.com Journal of Elementary Education Volume 2 Number 1, February 2018 64 | EFFECT OF COOPERATIVE LEARNING MODEL TYPE TEAM GAME TOURNAMENT (TGT) ON CROSS-CULTURAL SKILLS IN LEARNING SCIENCE SOCIAL KNOWLEDGE IN PRIMARY SCHOOL PRIMARYEDU E-ISSN: 2580-7714 P-ISSN: 2580-9326 Partnership for 21st Century Skills Trilling and Fadel (2009, pp. 81) there are several cross- cultural skills that must be possessed by students as follows. Interact effectively with others 1. Know when it's appropiate to listen and when to speak 2. Conduct themselves in a respectable, proffesional maner 3. Work effectively in Verse teams 4.

Figure 1. Conflict Occurring in 2013, 2014, and 2015 Based on the data of problems related to cross-cultural skills, it can be done several things to improve it such as introducing and practicing cross-cultured skills that have been exposed from an early age in elementary school (SD) with menggunkaan models that are innovative. Based on the above problems the problem formulation in this study is "Are there any significant improvements in cross-cultural skills of students in the IPS learning of cultural diversity in Indonesia by using cooperative learning model of game tournament (TGT) team type?". The purpose of this study is to find out whether there is a significant increase in cross- cultural skills of students in the IPS lesson of cultural diversity in Indonesia by using cooperative learning model of game tournament (TGT) team type. Some of the benefits derived from the results of this study are: 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 2013 2014 2015 Journal of Elementary Education Volume 2 Number 1, February 2018 EFFECT OF COOPERATIVE LEARNING MODEL TYPE TEAM GAME TOURNAMENT (TGT) ON CROSS-CULTURAL SKILLS IN LEARNING SCIENCE SOCIAL KNOWLEDGE IN PRIMARY SCHOOL 65 PRIMARYEDU E-ISSN: 2580-7714 P-ISSN: 2580-9326 1. Academic Benefits a. Providing inputs to education stakeholders for consideration in formulating specific education policies for IPS subjects. b. As an input for teachers to make cooperative model of game tournament team type (TGT) as an alternative to be developed and set in implementing IPS learning. 2. Practical Benefits a. Providing inputs in improving students' social skills, especially cross-cultural skills and improving student learning outcomes in IPS learning. b. Providing inputs to improving the effectiveness of IPS learning. c. Providing input for teachers how to apply cooperative learning type of game tournament (TGT) team in IPS learning. Team Game Tournament Learning (TGT) The cooperative model of the tournamnet game team type (TGT) is a learning model that emphasizes student activity, in line with which Slavin (2015) TGT is learning that uses an academy tournament, and uses quizzes and an individual progress scoring system, where students competing as their team representatives with other team members whose previous academic performance was equivalent to theirs. In this learning the teacher only as facilitator and mentor. In learning using this model students are invited to interact more with other students. Galih (2017) proposed the TGT learning stages, namely the delivery of the material concept from the teacher, the division of the group, the students were divided into several heterogeneous groups both from gender factors, intelligence level, and student background to perform games aimed at facilitating students in understand the material presented by the teacher. After students perform the game each group sends their representatives to the tournament. Viewed from the TGT learning stages described, the TGT model Can be used as a solution to improve the cross culural skills of students because in this TGT model students will interact with many other students so that students skills can be trained at all stages of learning using TGT model. Cross Cultural Skills Indonesia's diversity is a potential for its people when the community is able to live side by side and be peaceful with its diversity. In the 21st century there are human beings capable of interacting and cooperating with other human beings without differentiating from various factors.

In the learning process using game tournament team (TGT) in this study found beberpa interesting things that become learning and can be used as input for research other research. The first interesting findings were first encountered during the observation of early ability on cross cultural skills. The finding is that there are some students who have been sitting with no differentiating social status as there is a child merchant sitting with a doctor's son, a child TNI sitting with a child farmers and so forth. In this case the students already have cross-cultured skills on their own, but they are not aware of it and the teacher has not linked the students' initial ability to the classroom learning. Another finding occurred at the stage of treatment using the game team tournament model (TGT), ie students are not used to learn by grouping and discussing. There are some students who belong to the group of superior students in their class refused to be grouped with students who diaggapnya lower ability, some students also have refused grouped with students who are not playmates outside the classroom. This is a challenge for teachers because it requires patience in explaining the benefits of group learning. CONCLUSION Learning using cooperative model of game tournament team type (TGT) can improve cross-cultural skills of fourth grade students of SDN Talaga kulon I Kec. Talaha Kab. Majalengka. A significant cross-cultural indicator of cross-cultural skills is the eighteenth- century cross-cultural indicator, "Utilizing social and cultural differences to work effectively" while the lowest cross-cultural indicator is the fourth item, "No discriminating based on social status ".
