Abstract

The use of visual and digital media in early childhood education has emerged as a pedagogical response to technological advancements that demand innovation in the learning process. However, prior research often addresses fragmented aspects, such as specific tools or short-term effects, without offering a comprehensive synthesis. To address this gap, the present study systematically reviews the roles, effectiveness, challenges, and implementation strategies of visual and digital media in ECE. A descriptive qualitative method was employed, using a systematic literature review guided by the PRISMA framework. Data were collected from several scientific databases such as Google Scholar, SINTA, and ResearchGate, focusing on publications from the last five years. The analysis reveals that visual and digital media such as animated videos, interactive flashcards, digital storybooks, and smart boards significantly support children's cognitive, linguistic, motor, literacy, numeracy, and socio-emotional development. These media enhance engagement, motivation, and conceptual understanding through multisensory, interactive experiences. However, several challenges persist, including infrastructure limitations, low digital literacy among educators and parents, and psychological risks such as screen addiction and reduced social interaction. Addressing these issues requires strategies such as using age-appropriate content, regulating screen time, fostering teacher–parent collaboration, and ongoing teacher training. The study concludes that visual and digital media are effective pedagogical tools when implemented thoughtfully and contextually. It offers practical insights and evidence-based recommendations to help educators and policymakers integrate digital media in early learning environments responsibly and sustainably.

Abstract

Kemajuan teknologi, seperti penggunaan handphone (HP), telah menjadi bagian integral dalam kehidupan siswa. Kebijakan penonaktifan HP yang diterapkan di sekolah menimbulkan pro dan kontra, karena kemudahan yang sebelumnya dapat diakses dengan mudah menjadi terbatas, yang berpotensi mempengaruhi kondisi psikologis siswa, salah satunya adalah stres akademik. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan deskriptif kuantitatif dengan metode survei, yang melibatkan 177 siswa kelas X SMK Negeri 2 Pelaihari sebagai sampel dari populasi sebanyak 312 siswa. Instrumen penelitian yang digunakan adalah angket dengan skala Likert 1-5 untuk masing-masing variabel. Nilai Cronbach’s Alpha untuk variabel X (kebijakan penonaktifan HP) adalah 0,948 dan untuk variabel Y (stres akademik) adalah 0,907, masing-masing terdiri dari 24 butir soal. Teknik analisis data yang digunakan mencakup uji normalitas dan regresi linier sederhana dengan kriteria taraf signifikansi p < a, yang menunjukkan bahwa H0 ditolak jika p < 0,05. Hasil regresi menunjukkan persamaan Y = 115,168 + 0,596X dengan koefisien regresi b = 0,596 dan t-hitung = 10,671, serta p-value < 0,001, yang menunjukkan bahwa kebijakan penonaktifan HP berpengaruh signifikan terhadap stres akademik siswa. Hasil uji ANOVA menunjukkan nilai F hitung = 113,867 dengan p-value < 0,001, yang mengindikasikan adanya pengaruh linear yang signifikan antara kebijakan penonaktifan HP dan stres akademik siswa kelas X SMK Negeri 2 Pelaihari. The Effect of Deffecteactivating Bringing Cellphones to School on Academic Stress of Class X Students of SMK Negeri 2 Pelaihari Abstract The advancement of technology, such as the use of mobile phones (HP), has become an integral part of students' lives. The policy of banning mobile phones in schools has sparked both support and opposition, as the ease of access previously available is now restricted, potentially affecting students' psychological conditions, one of which is academic stress. This study uses a descriptive quantitative approach with a survey method, involving 177 students from class X of SMK Negeri 2 Pelaihari, selected from a population of 312 students. The research instrument used is a questionnaire with a 1-5 Likert scale for each variable. The Cronbach's Alpha values for variable X (the mobile phone ban policy) are 0.948 and for variable Y (academic stress) are 0.907, with 24 items for each variable. Data analysis techniques included normality testing and simple linear regression, with a significance level of p < a, where H0 is rejected if p < 0.05. The regression results show the equation Y = 115.168 + 0.596X, with a regression coefficient of b = 0.596, t-value = 10.671, and p-value < 0.001, indicating that the mobile phone ban policy significantly affects academic stress. The ANOVA test results show an F-value of 113.867 with a p-value < 0.001, indicating a significant linear influence between the mobile phone ban policy and academic stress in class X students at SMK Negeri 2 Pelaihari.
