The use of learning media in Building Construction Basics subject at SMKN 1 Sumedang were still not varied, it caused student learning outcomes to be not optimal. The researcher made alternative learning media that could encourage students' interest in the learning process. This research was aimed to design, find out, and implement learning media in the Basic Competence of Brick Installation Procedures. Learning media designed was puzzle as educational game with problem solving work technique and memory reinforcement. The research and development method were employed in developing the learning media. A purposive sampling technique was conveyed in order to collect the data with the participants of this research were 31 tenth grade students in DPIB 3 class of SMKN 1 Sumedang.
