Abstract

This research aims to develop a valid, reliable, and practical Google Forms-based The Influence of Collaborative Project Play Crafting on the Social Interaction Skills of Children with Autism at Athirah Makassar Inclusive Elementary School. Thesis. Guidance and Counseling Study Program. Graduate Program. Universitas Negeri Makassar (supervised by Abdul Saman and Parwoto). This study aims to determine: (1) the effect of collaborative project play crafting on the social interaction skills of autistic children in inclusive elementary schools, and (2) the changes in the social interaction skills of autistic children before and after participating in the collaborative project play crafting activities. This research uses a quantitative approach with the Single Subject Research (SSR) design A-B-A method. Data collection techniques were carried out through direct observation and portfolio studies, with instruments developed based on the Social Skills Rating System (SSRS) indicators. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, both within conditions and between conditions. The results of the study show that: (1) collaborative project play crafting has a significant effect on improving the social interaction skills of autistic children. This is evidenced by the increase in scores during the intervention phase (B) compared to the initial baseline phase (A1), as well as the stability of scores in the final baseline phase (A2), indicating that the intervention effect is lasting; (2) there were significant changes between baseline condition A1, intervention B, and baseline A2. In Baseline A1, children displayed low social skills (average scores of 2.0–2.5), but this increased to 3.5–3.8, in baseline A2, particularly in the areas of cooperation, social initiative, and responses to social stimuli. Therefore, this intervention is effective in improving the social interaction skills of autistic children in an inclusive educational environment.

Abstract

Early literacy is a foundational predictor of later reading development, yet many kindergarten children still experience difficulty recognizing letters, connecting letters with sounds, matching letters with meaningful images, and discriminating visually similar letter forms. This study examined the effect of Plugged GCompris-based digital learning on the early literacy skills of children aged 5–6 years. A quantitative quasi-experimental pretest–posttest control-group design was used with 20 children, comprising 10 children in an experimental group and 10 in a control group. Data were collected through observation and early-literacy tasks and analyzed using descriptive statistics, normalized gain (N-Gain), and the Mann–Whitney test. The experimental group obtained a mean N-Gain of 0.77 (SD = 0.20), whereas the control group obtained 0.14 (SD = 0.20). The experimental group also had a substantially higher Mann–Whitney mean rank (15.20) than the control group (5.80), and the original analysis reported a statistically significant between-group difference. Improvement was evident across alphabet recognition, letter–sound association, picture–letter matching, and visual discrimination. The findings indicate that well-aligned interactive digital activities can strengthen constrained early-literacy skills when used as a complement to teacher-guided instruction. The study is limited by its small, single-site sample and absence of delayed retention measurement, warranting larger and longer-term investigations.
