Abstract

Exploratory ability is a central indicator of cognitive development in early childhood because it enables children to observe, question, manipulate objects, test ideas, and construct explanations from direct experience. The preliminary condition in a kindergarten class in Banjarmasin showed that only 4 of 12 children (33%) demonstrated developing exploratory ability, while 8 children (67%) remained in the not-yet-developed category. This classroom action research aimed to improve teacher activity, children's learning activity, and children's exploratory ability by integrating Project-Based Learning, experimental activities, and loose parts media. The participants were 12 kindergarten children aged 5-6 years (5 boys and 7 girls). The intervention was implemented in four meetings through planning, action, observation, and reflection. Data were collected through observation sheets, documentation, interviews, and an exploratory ability assessment rubric. The data were analyzed descriptively using percentages, cross-tabulation, and trend interpretation. The results showed consistent improvement across meetings. Teacher activity increased from a score of 25 (61%, fairly good) in Meeting 1 to 38 (93%, very good) in Meeting 4. Children's classical activity increased from 25% to 100%, and the proportion of children who achieved successful exploratory development increased from 16.7% to 100%. The findings indicate that the integration of project work, simple experiments, and open-ended loose parts materials can create a concrete, playful, and inquiry-oriented learning environment that supports children's exploratory behavior. The study contributes practical evidence for early childhood teachers who seek to transform monotonous worksheet-based instruction into active, child-centered, and developmentally appropriate learning.

Abstract

The issue of accumulated household and agricultural waste that has not been optimally managed in Gunung Ulin Village has led to environmental pollution risks and low productivity in the utilization of organic waste. This activity aims to improve the community’s understanding and technical skills in processing such waste by implementing the composting box method. The implementation stages include inter-institutional coordination and educational socialization regarding waste management using leaflets. The participatory practice of organic fertilizer production was conducted using a closed-container system with the assistance of Effective Microorganisms 4 (EM4) activator. The results showed an increase in participants' knowledge to 90%, followed by successful compost production. The waste management success contributes strategically to the community’s self-sufficiency in providing plant nutrients from local organic materials. The implementation of this system demonstrates effectiveness in converting organic waste into eco-friendly fertilizer while potentially strengthening agricultural independence at the village level.
