Abstract

 This study examines teacher resilience at Waladun Shalih Ratulangi Kindergarten in Palopo City, focusing on the challenges faced by early childhood educators. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, the research employs data collection techniques such as observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis follows the steps of reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that (1) Teacher resilience aligned with the CO2RE dimensions: Control, Origin, Reach, and Endurance.; (2) Factors influencing resilience include intrinsic motivation and teacher creativity, which drive problem-solving and adaptability; and (3) Efforts to enhance resilience encompass transforming failures into opportunities, accepting constructive criticism, fostering courage and persistence, and expanding social networks. The study contributes insights into strategies for sustaining teacher resilience in early childhood education, highlighting its significance in overcoming professional and personal challenges. The results provide actionable recommendations for educators, administrators, and policymakers to support resilience development in educational settings.

Abstract

The low expressive language skills in students are characterized by difficulty constructing sentences, expressing ideas and feelings, and interacting verbally. Some students are only able to give short answers and are even silent when asked. This research aims to improve the expressive language skills of children aged 4-5 years through the spinning wheel media at TKIT Mutiara Islam Palopo City using the Classroom Action Research (PTK) method with the Kurt Lewin model, involving two cycles with four meetings in each cycle. The research subjects were 13 children from group A. Data was collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, and then analyzed using quantitative data in the form of student assessment scores for each cycle and qualitative data from observations in the learning process.  The research results showed a significant improvement. At pre-cycle, most children were in the "Not Yet Appearing" (NYA) and "Starting to Appear" (SA) categories. After cycle II, there was an increase in the "Already Appeared" (AA) and "Very Well Developing" (VWD) categories, respectively by 46% and 54%. The application of spinning wheel media has proven to be effective in improving children's expressive language skills through interactive and fun activities.
