ESD in achieving its goals can develop several key competencies, one of which is systems thinking competency which allows individuals to analyze connections and behaviors in a system in order to prepare themselves to overcome future problems. However, the lack of discussion of ESD in supporting e-learning media in elementary school causes confusion and different perceptions in the elementary school environment. Therefore, this study aims to describe the teacher's perspective on the application of ESD in electronic learning media in elementary schools. This study aims to describe the teacher's perspective on the application of ESD in e-learning media in elementary schools. The research method used in this study is a qualitative method through phenomenological research.
