<![CDATA[[Bahasa]: Ketidakmampuan guru-guru Pendidikan Anak Usia Dini (PAUD) di Kelurahan Balandai Kota Palopo dalam menciptakan alat peraga secara mandiri menyebabkan praktik pembelajaran di sekolah tersebut masih mengandalkan alat peraga buatan pabrik. Oleh karenanya, kreativitas guru PAUD dalam merancang dan menciptakan alat peraga edukatif (APE) perlu didorong melalui partisipasi guru dalam pelatihan atau workshop pembuatan APE. Tujuan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini adalah memberikan keterampilan kepada guru PAUD dalam merancang APE matematika melalui program pelatihan dan pendampingan serta meningkatkan hasil belajar matematika siswa PAUD melalui pemanfaatan APE yang telah dibuat. Mitra kegiatan ini adalah 16 orang guru PAUD pada Kelurahan Balandai Kota Palopo dengan pelaksanaan pelatihan bertempat di Fakultas Tarbiyah dan Ilmu Keguruan IAIN Palopo serta pelaksanaan program pendampingan yang bertempat di lembaga satuan masing-masing. Metode yang digunakan dalam pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini adalah Participation Action Research (PAR) yang berbentuk program pelatihan dan pendampingan secara kemitraan. Tahapan kegiatan meliputi yaitu pemetaan, persiapan, pelaksanaan, tindak lanjut serta monitoring dan evaluasi. Hasil kegiatan ini menunjukkan beberapa hal antara lain: (1) Persentase terpenuhinya semua indikator pada uji kompetensi konseptual pembuatan APE matematika mencapai 78,13%, (2) Persentase peserta dengan kategori mampu pada uji kompetensi teknis pembuatan APE adalah sebesar 84,38%, (3) Hasil observasi aktifitas anak selama pemanfaatan APE secara keseluruhan masuk pada kategori Berkembang Sesuai Harapan (BSH) sebesar 37,89% dan kategori Berkembang Sangat Baik (BSB) sebesar 49,47%, dan (4) Rata-rata persentase ketuntasan hasil observasi aktifitas anak selama pemanfaatan APE pada setiap lembaga adalah sebesar 82%. Dengan demikian dapat dikatakan bahwa pelatihan dan pendampingan pembuatan APE matematika bagi guru PAUD di Kelurahan Balandai Kota Palopo efektif terhadap perkembangan hasil belajar anak.
