Abstract

The increase in cases of violence against children during the COVID-19 pandemic highlights the urgent need for effective and coordinated child protection efforts, as such violence has severe long-term impacts on children's physical and psychological Development. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the Women and Children Protection Task Force in preventing violence against children in Sukoharjo Regency. The study employed a qualitative case study approach involving 15 key informants from cross-sector institutions, including government agencies, health services, psychologists, and community representatives. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, observation, and document analysis. Data analysis was conducted using the Miles and Huberman interactive model, with sources, methods, and theories triangulated to ensure validity. The findings indicate a high level of effectiveness, reflected in clear goal orientation, timely case handling, comprehensive holistic services, and a reduction in reported cases of violence against children. These results imply that a cross-sector task-force-based approach is practical for child violence prevention and can be integrated into early childhood education programs as a sustainable preventive strategy.

Abstract

This community service program aimed to strengthen early childhood arts education through the revitalization of dance learning for Raudhatul Athfal (RA) and Kindergarten (TK) teachers in the Solo Raya region. The program addressed gaps in teachers’ pedagogical and technical competencies, limited instructional resources, and the lack of structured dance programs in early childhood education settings. A Community-Based Research (CBR) approach was implemented through sequential stages, including needs assessment, classroom observation, Focus Group Discussions (FGD), participatory training, and mentoring. Data were collected from 60 RA and TK teachers using interviews, questionnaires, observations, and group discussions. The results revealed that although schools acknowledged the importance of dance for children’s physical, emotional, and cultural development, teachers faced challenges in basic dance techniques, the use of learning media, and practical classroom implementation. The participatory training improved teachers’ understanding of children’s dance principles, fundamental movement skills, and strategies for integrating dance into thematic learning. In addition, teachers developed simple choreographies and learned to design age-appropriate performance activities. The mentoring phase further enhanced teacher confidence and increased the frequency of dance activities in partner schools. Overall, the program demonstrates that capacity-building initiatives in dance education contribute to improving the quality of arts education in PAUD institutions while also supporting cultural appreciation and holistic child development. Program sustainability is strengthened through collaboration with IGRA and IGTK Solo Raya.

Abstract

Science literacy plays a crucial role in stimulating critical thinking skills in early childhood through various activities that provide children with opportunities to observe, explore, investigate, and explain phenomena encountered in daily life. This study describes kindergarten teachers’ perceptions and reported science-literacy practices, examines teacher-reported child behaviors that are consistent with foundational processes related to critical thinking, and identifies implementation barriers. A convergent mixed-methods design was used. The raw Google Forms export contained 111 submissions; screening by unique respondent identifier identified 15 repeat submissions, leaving 96 unique respondents. Among valid quantitative responses, all 96 teachers reported having introduced science activities; 77 of 96 (80.21%) rated science literacy at the highest importance category; and 80 of 96 (83.33%) reported science activities at least three times per month. Qualitative analysis showed that teachers commonly reported children’s enthusiasm and curiosity, questioning, attentive observation, willingness to try or repeat experiments, and simple explanations or predictions. These behaviors were interpreted as learning dispositions, science-process skills, and emerging reasoning behaviors rather than as direct evidence of validated critical-thinking performance. Barriers included limited tools and materials, time constraints, classroom-management demands, and uneven teacher knowledge and institutional support. Integration of the two data strands suggests that science activities are perceived as important and are implemented regularly, but the quality and depth of implementation vary according to available support.
