Abstract

The rapid development of generative artificial intelligence (AI) has transformed educational practices, creating new opportunities for teachers to enhance their professional competencies, particularly in digital literacy. However, existing research has largely focused on higher education contexts, with limited attention given to early childhood education teachers. This study aims to explore how early childhood education teachers utilize generative artificial intelligence to support digital literacy in their teaching practices. This study employed a qualitative exploratory approach involving 18 early childhood education teachers with experience in using generative AI tools. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, open-ended questionnaires, and reflective responses. The data were analyzed using inductive thematic analysis to identify patterns of use, perceived benefits, and challenges in integrating generative AI into teaching practices. The findings reveal that teachers use generative AI in multiple ways, including instructional preparation, idea generation, information search, and digital communication. These practices contribute to the development of teachers’ digital literacy, particularly in content creation, creative engagement, information evaluation, and ethical awareness. At the same time, teachers experience challenges related to the accuracy of AI-generated content, ethical considerations, and the need to maintain professional judgment. This study contributes to the growing discourse on artificial intelligence in education by highlighting the role of generative AI as a supportive tool for enhancing teachers’ digital literacy in early childhood education. The findings emphasize that digital literacy in the AI era requires not only technical skills but also reflective and critical engagement with technology.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the forms of tantrums that occur in early childhood and analyze teacher strategies in managing tantrum behavior in the "Baik" Christian Kindergarten in Papua. Tantrums in early childhood are a form of emotional outburst that can appear through loud crying, screaming, throwing objects, refusing to be touched, or rolling on the floor when the child is not yet able to manage his feelings appropriately. This study used a descriptive qualitative approach. The subjects were teachers of the "Baik" Christian Kindergarten who directly interact with early childhood and have experience in handling tantrums in the classroom. Data collection techniques were carried out through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The results showed that children's tantrums generally occur when children feel frustrated, their toys are taken, their work is disturbed, or they are not yet able to understand the concept of sharing. Teacher strategies in managing tantrum behavior are carried out through empathetic, preventive, corrective, and reflective approaches. The empathetic approach is carried out by approaching the child slowly, providing gentle touch, hugs, and using positive words. The preventive approach is carried out by creating a comfortable classroom atmosphere, providing directions before activities, and establishing routines that make children feel safe. The corrective approach involves gently setting boundaries, while the reflective approach is implemented after the child has calmed down through simple dialogue about their feelings. Research findings also indicate that the values ??of love, patience, closeness to Papuan culture, and Christian values ??support teachers' strategies in creating a safe and conducive learning environment for children's social-emotional development.
