Abstract

This study aims to observe how the Integrative Holistic Early Childhood Development Program is implemented in ECCE units. The survey's conclusion that Bogor Regency's use of Integrative Holistic ECCE is still subpar served as the impetus for this investigation. This study uses a descriptive, qualitative research design. The PAUD unit in Bogor Regency hosted the study for three months, from March to May 2024. This study includes principals and instructors as subjects. Qualitative descriptive analysis is the data analysis method that is applied. Data reduction, data visualization, conclusion drafting, and data verification are among the stages of data analysis. Using triangulation, the data's veracity is verified. According to the study's findings, principals and teachers have a positive attitude toward PAUD HI, employ effective strategies or methods in their programs, and work together with the government, non-governmental organizations, parents, and the private sector. However, one of the main challenges in putting PAUD HI programs into practice in ECCE units is the lack of funding, facilities, and teaching staff, as well as a lack of resources for the learning environment and parent involvement. The study's conclusion The Integrative Holistic Early Childhood Development (PAUD HI) program faces a number of obstacles during implementation. To overcome these obstacles, the community, government, and educational institutions must work together well, actively involve parents, improve infrastructure and human resources, and conduct periodic evaluations.

Abstract

Cognitive development in early childhood is a crucial foundation for later academic achievement. However, many early childhood education institutions still face challenges in providing effective cognitive stimulation due to limited learning media and the dominance of conventional teaching approaches. This study aimed to develop an educational medium called the “AWI” Bamboo Bracelet as a manipulative learning tool based on local cultural resources to enhance the cognitive development of children aged 5–6 years. The research employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the 4D development model, which includes the stages of Define, Design, and Develop. The participants consisted of 20 children in Group B at TK Islam Nurul Huda, Cibalong District, Tasikmalaya Regency. Data were collected through structured observations, interviews, expert validation sheets, teacher response questionnaires, and cognitive development assessment sheets using a one-group pretest–posttest design. Data analysis involved validity percentage calculations, normalized N-Gain analysis, and the Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test. The results indicated that the AWI Bamboo Bracelet media was highly valid according to material experts (87%) and media experts (85%). Teacher responses showed a practicality score of 93%, categorized as very practical. The effectiveness test demonstrated a significant improvement in children's cognitive development with an overall N-Gain score of 0.69, indicating a moderate-to-high improvement. Therefore, the AWI Bamboo Bracelet media can serve as an innovative, practical, and culturally relevant learning medium to support cognitive development in early childhood education.

Abstract

This study aims to develop an emoji puzzle assisted by picture cards to improve the emotional intelligence of children aged 4–6 years. The background of the study indicates that some children at TK Cinta Ibu experience difficulties in identifying and expressing their emotions, while others are not yet able to recognize the emotions of their peers. The limited availability of learning media specifically designed to support emotional intelligence development has become a major challenge in early childhood education institutions. This study employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the Four-D model (Define, Design, Develop, Disseminate). The define stage involved needs analysis through observation and interviews. The design stage produced a puzzle prototype representing eight basic emotions (happy, sad, angry, afraid, surprised, shy, proud, and disgusted) supported by contextual situation cards. The develop stage included expert validation and a limited trial using a one-group pretest–posttest design with 30 children (10 children aged 4–5 years and 20 children aged 5–6 years). Effectiveness was analyzed using the Normalized Gain (N-Gain). The results show that the emoji puzzle model is theoretically feasible, highly valid according to expert evaluation, and moderately effective in improving children’s emotional intelligence.

Abstract

This study aims to develop TAS LISA learning media (Tas Literasi Anak Sederhana dan Atraktif) using a Research and Development (R&D) approach to improve the beginning reading skills of early childhood learners. The study was motivated by the low level of beginning reading ability among kindergarten children, particularly in recognizing letters, associating letters with sounds, and reading simple syllables and words. In addition, the literacy learning media used in classrooms are generally conventional and provide limited opportunities for concrete, interactive learning experiences that align with the developmental characteristics of young children. Therefore, an innovative learning medium developed through a systematic research and development process is needed. This study employed an R&D method consisting of several stages: analysis, data collection, product design, design validation by material and media experts, design revision, product trial, product revision, usage trial, and final product revision. The research subjects were 20 children from Group B in a kindergarten. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and expert validation questionnaires. Data analysis used quantitative descriptive methods to determine product feasibility and improvement in children's beginning reading skills, and qualitative descriptive analysis to describe the development process and children's responses to the media. The results indicate that the TAS LISA learning media is feasible based on expert validation and effective in improving children's beginning reading abilities, including letter recognition, syllable reading, and simple word reading.
