Abstract

Background: Early Childhood Education (ECE) has undergone significant transformation in the digital era due to rapid technological advancement, evolving family dynamics, and increasing attention to inclusive education and child well-being. Despite these developments, existing studies remain fragmented and often fail to integrate cognitive development, digital learning, family influence, inclusive pedagogy, and child well-being within a unified framework. Objective: This study aims to systematically analyze research trends, identify existing research gaps, and explore future directions in ECE in the digital era, with a focus on cognitive development, inclusive pedagogy, family influence, and child well-being. Method: A Systematic Literature Review (SLR) combined with bibliometric analysis was employed using publications indexed in the Scopus database. Relevant articles were identified through a structured keyword search and screened based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Data cleaning was conducted using OpenRefine, while VOSviewer and Biblioshiny were utilized to perform network visualization, thematic mapping, and trend analysis. Results: The findings reveal a notable shift in ECE research from clinically oriented and fragmented approaches toward more integrative and multidisciplinary perspectives. The literature predominantly emphasizes child development, parental involvement, and early intervention. Recent studies increasingly focus on the role of digital technologies in learning environments, particularly in the post-pandemic period. However, technology integration remains insufficiently connected to pedagogical principles. Furthermore, gaps persist in incorporating inclusive education, cultural diversity, and child well-being into digital learning contexts. Conclusion: Advancing ECE in the digital era requires a holistic and integrated approach that combines cognitive and social development, technology-enhanced pedagogy, family and cultural engagement, and child well-being. Such integration is essential for developing adaptive, inclusive, and sustainable early childhood education systems while contributing to educational psychology and child development research.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengembangkan model manajemen alat bermain yang berfokus pada kebutuhan perkembangan anak guna meningkatkan kualitas pembelajaran di Pendidikan Anak Usia Dini (PAUD). Pengelolaan alat bermain yang tidak sistematis sering mengakibatkan pemanfaatan alat permainan edukatif yang suboptimal dalam merangsang aspek perkembangan anak. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan deskriptif kualitatif dengan subjek guru PAUD dan anak usia 4–6 tahun. Data dikumpulkan melalui observasi, wawancara, dan dokumentasi, selanjutnya dianalisis secara tematik. Penelitian menunjukkan bahwa model manajemen alat bermain, yang mencakup tahap perencanaan berdasarkan indikator perkembangan anak, pengorganisasian alat bermain sesuai area perkembangan, pelaksanaan penggunaan alat bermain secara terstruktur, serta evaluasi berkala, dapat meningkatkan keterlibatan anak dalam kegiatan bermain dan belajar. Model ini juga membantu guru dalam memilih dan memanfaatkan alat bermain secara lebih efektif dan sesuai dengan kebutuhan perkembangan anak. Oleh karena itu, penerapan model manajemen alat bermain yang berfokus pada kebutuhan perkembangan anak berkontribusi terhadap peningkatan kualitas pembelajaran di PAUD.

Abstract

Background: The study addresses the lack of understanding among teachers regarding the values of anti-corruption education implemented in schools. This is evident from the minimal knowledge of teachers regarding acts of corruption normalized in educational environments, especially in early childhood education (ECE).Aims: The objective of this community service activity is to disseminate anti-corruption values, which are often normalized in educational settings.Methods: The methods used in this activity were workshops and evaluations of teachers' knowledge of anti-corruption values, which are often conducted in early childhood education settings.Results: The findings showed that early childhood teachers at TKIT Baitul Izzah have taught anti-corruption values through daily activities, although in practice there are still some activities that are considered normal, such as accepting gifts from parents. This is due to the belief that gifts from others, including parents, should not be refused. As for the teachers' understanding after participating in the community service program, it increased from 41.8% to 86.5%.Conclusion: These results show that teachers' understanding of anti-corruption education values has begun to improve, as evidenced by the awareness demonstrated by teachers after participating in the outreach activities.

Abstract

Artificial intelligence has accelerated the evolution of personalized learning, yet most learning management systems continue to rely on static instructional pathways that inadequately accommodate learners’ cognitive and behavioral diversity. This study evaluated an AI-driven Personalized Learning Pathway (PLP) framework that integrates learner analytics, intelligent content recommendation, and adaptive assessment within a unified learning environment to enhance student engagement and academic achievement. A mixed-methods quasi-experimental design was conducted with 240 undergraduate students from four universities across Southeast Asia. Students in the experimental group learned through an AI-augmented learning management system, while the control group used a conventional platform. The findings demonstrate that the AI-driven PLP framework consistently improved student engagement, motivation, course completion, and academic achievement compared with traditional learning management systems. Students also exhibited stronger learning adaptability and more effective responses to personalized feedback, both of which emerged as key contributors to academic success. By integrating behavioral analytics with real-time instructional adaptation, the proposed framework moves beyond content personalization toward a responsive learning ecosystem. This study contributes a scalable AI-enabled instructional framework that supports learner-centered higher education and provides practical guidance for implementing adaptive digital learning environments

Abstract

Background of study: Character is an attitude that should be instilled in children from an early age. Character education for early childhood education plays an important role in shaping children's moral and social foundations from an early age. Aims and scope of paper: This study aims to determine the strategies teachers use in applying Tarakanita character values to children aged 4 to 5 years at Sint Carolus Kindergarten. Methods: This study uses a qualitative approach involving the principal and two teachers as research participants. The data collection techniques used in this study are interviews and observation. Furthermore, the data will be analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model. Result: The results of the study show that Sint Carolus Kindergarten systematically develops Tarakanita character values through three main strategies, namely learning through the integration of Tarakanita Character Education, foreign languages, experience-based learning, and technology; habit formation through practicing good behavior such as queuing and caring for the environment; and reinforcement through consistent role modeling by teachers and parents as the foundation for character building in children. Conclusion: The implementation of Tarakanita character values at Sint Carolus Kindergarten is carried out through three strategies, namely learning, habit formation, and role modeling. The teachers' strategy in applying Tarakanita character values emphasizes experience-based learning and implements a cycle of reflection and sharing with parents as an effort to provide education that is consistent between home and school.
