Abstract

Deaf children are an essential concern, especially at an early age, to provide independent learning that will be beneficial in the future, as they are accustomed to being independent without the help of others. The purpose of the study was to identify and describe effective learning strategies in improving the independence of blind children in special schools (SLB), Bukesra Banda Aceh. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study method, data collected through interviews with teachers and observation of teaching and learning activities. The results showed that the main strategies implemented include expository methods for the delivery of material in a structured manner, heuristic methods to foster independent and critical thinking, as well as a team teaching approach that allows more personalized guidance. In addition, schools use audio media such as audiobooks as alternative visual aids, ice-breaking activities to increase learning focus, and giving awards as a form of positive reinforcement to build motivation and social participation of children. The curriculum is tailored to each student's ability to create inclusive and adaptive learning. The findings of this study indicate that integrated and responsive learning strategies significantly support the development of academic and social independence of children with visual impairments, which can be seen from their increased initiative, confidence, and active participation in the learning process.

Abstract

  This study aimed to develop and assess the feasibility of a gamified digital learning media for tsunami disaster mitigation designed for early childhood education in Banda Aceh, a disaster-prone region. Using the Research and Development (R&D) method with the ADDIE model, the study involved 25 children from class A1 at TK IT Baitussalihin selected through total sampling. Data were collected through expert validation sheets and observation during field trials. The media, developed on the Educaplay platform as an interactive picture quiz titled “Fun Picture Quiz: Froggy Jumps,” obtained a final validation score of 100% from media and material experts, with an average expert score of 85% (Very Feasible). Field testing showed an overall feasibility score of 88% (Very Feasible), with 13 children achieving perfect scores and 12 scoring 75%. The findings indicate that the gamified media is engaging, visually appropriate, and pedagogically suitable for supporting early childhood cognitive development while addressing the need for interactive digital resources in tsunami preparedness. Further studies are recommended to examine its long-term effectiveness in enhancing children’s disaster preparedness knowledge.
