Abstract

The problem raised in this study is related to the low ability to read hijaiyah letters in early childhood. This study aims to analyze the effect of using multimedia as a learning method on children's ability to read hijaiyah letters. Multimedia elements such as text, images, sound, video, and animation are used to improve the learning experience and interaction in teaching hijaiyah letters to students. This is based on Multimedia Learning Theory, which states that learning becomes more effective when presented through a combination of information words and images compared to just words. The method used is a quantitative approach with an experimental design. The population of the study was students of Aisyiyah Mamajang Kindergarten, Makassar City, group B, totaling 105 children, the research sample consisted of 22 children. The sampling technique in this study used a purposive sampling technique. The results showed that the use of multimedia significantly improved children's ability to read hijaiyah letters after treatment. The average score of students' ability to read hijaiyah letters increased from 28.95 in the pretest to 64.36 in the posttest. Analysis using the Wilcoxon test showed a significant increase of 0.000 ≤ 0.05, indicating that learning through multimedia is effective in improving children's ability to read hijaiyah letters. This study concludes that multimedia is an effective learning tool to improve early literacy skills, especially learning hijaiyah letters.
