Students’ low social interaction skills in the school environment are driven by the use of teaching methods that lack variety and tend to be teacher-centered. This study aims to examine the effect of the Snowball Throwing method, supported by the Lumio By Smart digital platform, on the social interaction skills of 12th-grade students at Sukodadi State High School 1. The study employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design, involving one experimental class and one control class; data were collected through questionnaires, observations, and interviews, then analyzed using a t-test at a significance level of 0.05. The results showed that the average score of the experimental class increased from 5.7 to 8.3, with 72% of students falling into the “good” category, while the control class’s score rose from 5.6 to 6.8, with 58% of students in the “good” category. The between-class comparison test yielded a t-value of 2.306; p = 0.024 < 0.05, confirming a significant difference. The class supported by Lumio By Smart also displayed greater enthusiasm, active communication, and mutual cooperation. It was concluded that the implementation of the Snowball Throwing method supported by Lumio By Smart had a positive impact and was more effective in enhancing students’ social interaction in Civic Education (PPKn) lessons, making it a viable alternative interactive learning strategy for developing students’ social skills in an educational setting.
