Abstract

Karakter pada anak perlu dikembangkan sejak dini oleh pendidik, baik di rumah (Pendidikan informal) maupun di Lembaga PAUD (Pendidikan formal). Pengembangan karakter ini perlu dilakukan secara kreatif agar anak merasa nyaman, tidak merasa terpaksa dalam membangun karakter yang diharapkan. Salah satu bentuk pengembangan karakter yang sangat disukai anak adalah melalui metode bercerita. Namun, kemampuan bercerita dengan berbagai media pada guru PAUD saat ini belum terstandar. Ada beberapa guru yang memang sudah mahir bercerita, sehingga anak-anak sangat asyik menyimaknya. Namun banyak guru PAUD yang masih perlu mengembangkan kemampuan bercerita bagi anak untuk mengembangkan karakter. Abdimas ini bertujuan untuk: (1) memberikan pelatihan tentang penguatan karakter anak usia dini melalui metode bercerita ini bagi Guru PAUD, (2) mengenalkan anak usia dini dengan metode bercerita dengan cara yang sesuai dengan anak usia dini, (3) mengintegrasikan kegiatan menari dengan kegiatan bermain ke dalam pembelajaran PAUD. Kegiatan dilakukan di PAUDQu Darul Ulum, Jabon Mekar. Bogor. Berdasar pengamatan dan wawancara dengan para guru di PAUDQu, kegiatan abdimas dengan memberikan pendampingan penggunaaan metode bercerita ini sangat bermanfaat karena anak menjadi lebih bersemangat saat belajar, guru lebih mudah mengarahkan anak, guru mendapatkan berbagai masukan berharga dari tanya jawab dengan anak usai bercerita, dan guru dapat sekaligus merancang pelibatan orang tua melalui kegiatan bercerita.

This study aims to analyse student involvement in the Strengthening of Early Childhood Educators Teaching Skills course in distance education. The research method used is descriptive qualitative. The research participants were 405 students of the Department of Early Childhood Education, consisting of 90% women aged between 20-55 years and an average age of 31 years. The research findings show that at the level of academic challenge, most students agree that the ECE Educators Teaching Skills Strengthening (TSS) course brings new ideas and certain experiences and is very helpful in applying theory or concepts to practical problems. Indicators of active/collaborative learning indicate that hands-on experiences help students work more effectively with others. Meanwhile, the student-faculty interaction component shows that they have carried out two-way discussions regarding material assessment and practice. Additionally, online tutorials have provided quick feedback on assignments and guidance in compiling practice reports. The student learning experience is greatly helped by the TSS course. Students acquire new knowledge and skills to support their profession as teachers. Keywords: early childhood educators, engagement, teaching skill, distance education References: Ackerman, D. J.
