Abstract

The moral development of early childhood is crucial for shaping their character and social interaction. This study examines the efficacy of the Project Approach in fostering moral development in young children within early childhood education settings.  The study employed a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative scoring of moral development with qualitative analysis of the children's responses. Using a five-point scoring rubric, the researchers assessed the moral reasoning abilities of the child participants through observations. The findings indicate that a majority of the children exhibit notable progress in their moral development, predominantly clustering within the "Developing" category, suggesting a shift towards more nuanced moral reasoning. The Project Approach's emphasis on real-world social interaction, critical thinking, and empathy cultivation appears to positively influence children's moral development. The results also highlight the importance of educational approaches that prioritize the cultivation of both cognitive and emotional aspects of morality. The study's conclusion is that the Project Approach significantly supports the development of more mature moral principles in students, facilitating children's transition to higher stages of moral development and fostering the foundations of healthy and sustainable morality. This result contributed to a more comprehensive understanding of how best to support children's moral growth.

Abstract

The quality of early childhood education continues to face challenges in providing learning methods that optimally accommodate the diverse potentials of children. One potential alternative is to utilize local wisdom as a contextual approach to support the development of children's multiple intelligences. This study aims to analyze the potential of the Nyadran tradition as an educational medium in stimulating various intelligences in early childhood, based on Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, this research involved 42 early childhood students and 4 teachers from two early childhood education institutions. Data were collected through participatory observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation, then analyzed using Miles & Huberman’s interactive analysis model. The findings indicate that the Nyadran tradition facilitates activities that integrally develop visual-spatial, interpersonal, intrapersonal, naturalistic, musical, and bodily-kinesthetic intelligences. Activities within this tradition encourage children to actively engage, collaborate, express themselves, explore the environment, and reflect on themselves through various cultural practices. This study concludes that Nyadran has the potential to serve as an effective local wisdom-based pedagogical strategy to support the holistic development of early childhood learners. The implications encourage educators to integrate local cultural values into meaningful and relevant learning experiences for children.

Abstract

This research aims to determine the effect of differentiated learning on the critical thinking skills of PGSD students in the basic IPA concepts course. The approach used in this research is quantitative, with a quasi-experimental design. The research was conducted on first-semester students at Yogyakarta State University, specifically in class A as the experimental class with 26 people and class B as the control class with 30 people.  The results of the paired sample t-test for critical thinking skills between the pretest and post-test in the control class are 8.744 > 1.697 (t-table N=30) and in the experimental class are 33.303 > 1.706 (t-table N=26). In each class, the significance value is 0.001. If compared to the required value for a significance level of 0.05, the calculated significance is less than 0.05, it is stated that there is a positive influence. The findings indicate a positive and significant impact of differentiated learning on enhancing students' critical thinking skills in the basic IPA concepts course. These results indicate that educators need to consider integrating differentiated learning into their teaching strategies to improve the quality of education.
