Abstract

This study aimed to develop an animated video learning media that is valid, practical, and effective in improving the cognitive abilities of early childhood students in Group A1 at TKIT Baitusshalihin, Banda Aceh. This research employed the Research and Development (R&D) method using the ADDIE development model, which consists of five stages: Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. The research subjects were 20 children aged 4–5 years. Data were collected through observation, interviews, questionnaires, pretests, and posttests. The data were analyzed using qualitative and quantitative descriptive analysis, as well as the Shapiro–Wilk normality test and the Paired Sample t-Test with the assistance of IBM SPSS Statistics 26. The results showed that the animated video media achieved a very high level of validity, obtaining 100% from the media expert, 93.75% from the material expert, and 95% from the language expert. The practicality test result reached 100%, categorized as very practical. The effectiveness test demonstrated an increase in the average cognitive ability score of children from 31 in the pretest to 90 in the posttest. The normality test indicated that the data were normally distributed, with significance values of 0.550 for the pretest and 0.583 for the posttest. Furthermore, the Paired Sample t-Test yielded a significance value of 0.000 (< 0.05), indicating that the animated video media was effective in improving the cognitive abilities of early childhood children. Therefore, the developed animated video media is feasible to be used as an alternative learning medium to enhance early childhood cognitive development

Abstract

are typically sectioned logically as an overview of what appears in the paperThis study aimed to examine the effect of origami paper-folding activities on the fine motor skills of Group A children at TK Negeri 5 Banda Aceh. Fine motor skills are an important aspect of early childhood development involving the coordination of small muscles, particularly those of the hands and fingers, which are required for various daily learning activities such as writing, cutting, and drawing. This study employed a quantitative approach using a pre-experimental one-group pretest-posttest design. The research sample consisted of 16 children selected through a total sampling technique. Data were collected through observation, performance tests, and documentation, and were analyzed using descriptive statistics and a paired sample t-test. The results showed a significant improvement in children's fine motor skills after the implementation of origami paper-folding activities. The mean pretest score was 7.56 (37.81%), while the mean posttest score increased to 15.31 (76.56%). The paired sample t-test revealed a significant difference with a significance value of 0.000 (p < 0.05), leading to the rejection of the null hypothesis. These findings indicate that origami paper-folding activities have a significant positive effect on improving the fine motor skills of early childhood children.

Abstract

Critical thinking is an essential competence in language education because students are expected not only to understand texts but also to interpret information, evaluate arguments, identify assumptions, make inferences, and justify their opinions using textual evidence. However, reading instruction in many English as a foreign language classrooms still emphasizes literal comprehension, vocabulary translation, and answer-finding activities. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of reading-based literacy activities in developing students’ critical thinking and to explore how students experience critical reading tasks in secondary EFL classrooms. The study employed a mixed-method design using a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest control group approach supported by classroom observations, student interviews, reflective journals, and document analysis. The participants were 74 Grade VIII students divided into an experimental group and a control group. The experimental group received reading-based literacy activities involving prediction, questioning, evidence mapping, inference-making, argument evaluation, perspective comparison, and reflective response writing. The control group received conventional reading instruction. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, paired-sample t-tests, independent-sample t-tests, normalized gain scores, and effect size analysis. Qualitative data were analyzed thematically. The findings showed that the experimental group achieved significantly higher critical thinking improvement than the control group. Qualitative findings revealed that reading-based literacy activities strengthened students’ ability to question texts, locate evidence, compare viewpoints, infer implicit meanings, and justify interpretations. The study concludes that reading-based literacy activities can develop students’ critical thinking when they are explicit, evidence-based, dialogic, and supported by reflective assessment.
