Abstract

Background: Enhancing character values during early childhood is a crucial component of implementing the Merdeka Curriculum and requires the support of engaging and interactive digital learning media. In the context of rapid technological development, educators are encouraged to integrate digital innovations that can meaningfully support character education while maintaining a child-friendly learning environment. Objective: This study aims to develop Book Creator–based learning media to strengthen character values namely honesty, responsibility, empathy, and cooperation in early childhood as an effort to create a joyful and meaningful learning environment. Method: This study employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the ADDIE model, involving early childhood teachers and preschool children in Purwakarta Regency, Indonesia. Data were collected through observation, interviews, questionnaires, and documentation, and were analyzed using descriptive, quantitative, and qualitative techniques. Results: The findings indicate that the Book Creator media, consisting of six interactive stories, achieved a validity score of 92% from media experts and 100% from content experts, categorizing it as highly valid. Practicality testing conducted by teachers yielded a 100% score, indicating that the media is very practical, engaging, and easy to use. Furthermore, the media was proven effective in enhancing children’s understanding of character values and demonstrated uniqueness as an interactive thematic storytelling medium specifically designed for early childhood character education. Conclusion: With high levels of validity, practicality, and effectiveness, the developed Book Creator media shows strong potential for broader implementation as an adaptive digital learning innovation to support character education for young children in the technological era.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the dynamics of parenting styles and disciplinary behavior among children aged 5–6 years at TK Cinta Ibu, Purwakarta, focusing on how parenting styles are applied, the forms of disciplinary behavior that emerge, and the supporting and inhibiting factors involved. A qualitative case study approach was employed, involving 10 children aged 5–6 years and their parents as research subjects. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to parents, observations of children's behavior at school, and documentation of activities. The data were then analyzed using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña, supported by source triangulation. The findings indicate that most parents adopt a democratic parenting style, as reflected in the practice of explaining the reasons behind rules, maintaining open communication, providing supervision, and consistently implementing rules. Nevertheless, parents' positive perceptions do not fully correspond to the conditions observed at school, as children still frequently require guidance and repeated reminders during activities, such as putting away toys and waiting their turn in line. Variations in discipline levels among children were also identified, which cannot be entirely explained by parenting styles in general. Overall, democratic parenting serves as an important foundation for developing early childhood discipline; however, its implementation still requires consistent habituation both at home and at school, along with close collaboration between parents and teachers to align children's disciplinary habits across both environments.
