The objective of this research is to identify the impact of meaningful learning activities used in the teaching of the field of learning "Culture and Heritage" in the 4th Class of Primary School Social Information Course on academic success and durability. The question is asked whether meaningful learning activities, which are independent variables in the study, are dependent variables, have an impact on academic achievements and durability of students. Therefore, a semi-experimental method, which is one of the experimental methods, was used in the research. The study group is made up of fourth-class students of a school in Tokat. The study was conducted with a total of 46 students, 23 in the experimental group, 23 in the control group. The prepared success test was applied as a pre-test before application to the test and control group, the final test immediately after application and durability test about a month after application. In the analysis of the data, the arithmetic average, standard deviation, dependent and independent groups were used t-test. The study findings show that there is no statistically significant difference between the test group and the control group pre-test points. However, statistically significant differences between the experiment group and the control group end-test and durability points have been found in favour of the experiment group. This is the first fourth. Class Level Social Information course "Culture and Heritage" shows that meaningful learning activities applied in the learning field have a positive impact on student academic success and sustainability. From these findings, it is recommended that meaningful learning activities be used in the Social Information courses.
