Abstract

Background: The development of a curriculum alignment management guide for Early Childhood Education (ECE) is essential to support curriculum adaptation in non-formal institutions such as Playgroups (KB) and Kindergartens (TK). In the context of curriculum changes, it is necessary to have a curriculum alignment model accompanied by effective management practices, ensuring that the adaptation process can be implemented systematically and effectively. Research Urgency: Curriculum changes at the ECE level require non-formal educational institutions, particularly KB and TK, to make curriculum adjustments. However, there is a lack of strategic and implementable management guides to support this process, especially for institutions that are unaccredited or minimally accredited. Thus, a valid and practical model guide is urgently needed. Research Objectives: This research aims to develop a curriculum alignment model for ECE equipped with a sound management guide, and to validate its feasibility for use by Heads of KB and TK in adapting the old curriculum to the new one. Research Method: The method employed is Research and Development (R&D) using the ADDIE model, which includes five stages: Analyze, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. Validation was conducted by two experts in the fields of language and curriculum management content to assess the strategic and implementative feasibility of the guide. Research Findings: The validation results showed a score of 4.4 for the language aspect and 4.0 for the management substance aspect, both categorized as very good. The trial implementation involving Heads of KB and TK in Tayu District, Pati Regency, resulted in an acceptance rate of 80.35%, which also falls into the very good category. Research Conclusion: The developed curriculum alignment model is feasible for use as a guide in aligning the PAUD curriculum. It provides strategic and implementative direction for carrying out curriculum adaptation within non-formal education institutions. Research Novelty/Contribution: This research introduces a new contribution in the form of a curriculum alignment management guide for ECE that is both strategic and implementable. It offers practical support for Heads of KB and TK, especially those with minimal or no accreditation, to manage curriculum changes in a more structured and effective manner.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the process of constructing digital literacy in young children within the family, identify the role of parents, and examine the factors influencing it. The study employs a qualitative approach with a phenomenological design involving 7 parents of children aged 4–6 years as informants. Data were collected through in-depth interviews,observations, and documentation, and were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model. The results indicate that children’s digital literacy is shaped through habitual technology use, the role of parents as mediators, and the process of behavioral modeling. Parents who actively guide their children tend to foster more purposeful technology use, while a lack of guidance leads children to become passive users. Additionally, social environmental factors and family conditions also influence this process. This study concludes that digital literacy in early childhood is the result of social construction within the family, not merely a consequence of access to technology. Therefore, active parental involvement, support from early childhood education institutions, and government policies are necessary to optimally foster children’s digital literacy.

Abstract

The development of digital media has made YouTube one of the most frequently accessed platforms by young children. In the context of Early Childhood Education (ECE), the design of persuasive narratives in digital content is a critical aspect because children are still in the imitative development stage and are not yet able to critically filter information. This study aims to analyze the design of persuasive narratives in YouTube social media content and its relationship to the growth and development of young children. The study employed a descriptive qualitative approach using content analysis, a Google Form survey, and in-depth interviews with parents. Research data were obtained from the analysis of 30 children’s YouTube videos and in-depth interviews with 8 parents of young children. The analysis was based on four indicators: processing fluency, emotional engagement, narrative structure, and ethical value. The results showed that 17 videos (56.67%) fell into the “appropriate” category, as they featured simple language, coherent narrative structure, positive emotional engagement, and moral values that support children’s development. Meanwhile, 13 videos (43.33%) were classified as “inappropriate” because they emphasized visual stimulation, impulsive behavior, and consumerist elements. This study demonstrates that the design of persuasive narratives in digital media plays a role in the language, behavioral, and social-emotional development of young children.

Abstract

Parenting in early childhood plays a crucial role in children’s development during the golden period. However, the increasing number of working parents creates challenges in caregiving practices. This study aims to explore the lived experiences of working parents in raising young children and the meanings they attach to their caregiving roles. A qualitative approach with a phenomenological design was employed. Data were collected through in-depth, semi-structured interviews with three working parents who had children aged 4–6 years and were Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis. The findings indicate that working parents experience time constraints and role conflicts between professional and family responsibilities. Despite these challenges, they develop adaptive strategies to maintain the quality of parenting, particularly through meaningful emotional involvement with their children. Parenting is perceived as both an essential responsibility and a long-term investment in children’s development. The novelty of this study lies in revealing the lived experiences of working parents in balancing work and caregiving roles, as well as the adaptive strategies they employ to sustain emotional engagement with their children. This article contributes to the literature on early childhood parenting by emphasizing experiential perspectives and offers practical recommendations for parents, educators, and policymakers to support work–family balance.
