Abstract

Purpose – The welfare of teachers as educators must be considered, for example, by providing professional allowances on time, because if they are late, it will hamper teachers' performance. In addition, teacher performance is deficient due to the lack of workshops and the assumption that the teaching profession is only limited to earning income. Therefore, this study aims to determine the effect of professional allowances and teacher professionalism on teachers at the level of early childhood education.Design/methods/approach – This study uses explanatory research with a quantitative approach. Sampling in this study uses a saturated sample technique, which means that all populations are used as respondents. The data collection method used a questionnaire with a Likert scale. The questionnaires were distributed to all early childhood education teachers in Bergas District, Semarang Regency, who received professional allowances to be filled out by respondents. The data that has been collected is then analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis.Findings – The results of the t-test show that the regression coefficient of the professional allowance variable is 0.621, with a significance of 0.001. it means that partially the professional allowance has a positive effect on teacher performance. Then, the variable of teacher professionalism has a regression coefficient of 0.795 with a significance value of 0.000 which means that partially teacher professionalism has a positive effect on teacher performance. Meanwhile, the results of the F-test show that the F value is 20,130 and is significant at 0.000. It means that professional allowances and teacher professionalism can simultaneously affect teacher performance.Research implications/limitations – This research is limited to two independent variables, and the research location is only in one area. Future research is expected to explore more deeply the factors that can affect the performance of Early Childhood Education Programs teachers with a broader research location. Practical implications – This research is expected to provide input to early childhood education teachers, school institutions, and education offices related to teacher performance, especially in Bergas District, Semarang Regency. The implication that needs to be applied to keep teacher performance high and optimal is to pay attention to the professional allowances given to teachers and teacher professionalism.Originality/value – This study adds teacher professionalism as one of the factors that can affect teacher performance.

Abstract

Purpose – The early learning of the Qur’an, infused with Islamic values, has been widely regarded as an effective tool in preserving the natural inclinations of children and nurturing their humanity. However, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has presented significant obstacles to Qur’an learning in Early Childhood Education (ECE) institutions. As such, this study seeks to offer a comprehensive description of the challenges faced by these institutions in delivering their teachings during this global health crisis.Design/methods/approach – The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative research. The location of this research was carried out at 4 ECE institutions. Namely: RA Al-Muslimun Nurul Islam, TKIT Asy-Syaamil Qur’anic Fullday School, Integrated Star Islamic Early Childhood Education, and RA Ulumul Qur’an Al Madani.Findings – The current COVID-19 pandemic has created significant challenges for learning the Qur’an in ECE. These issues can be categorized as internal and external factors. Internal factors relate to teachers’ difficulties when conducting practical learning activities outside the classroom. Meeting constraints, large class sizes, and limited time duration often result in an inability to deliver a complete learning experience. Externally, learning losses in early childhood have become apparent, with children experiencing behavioral changes. Not all parents are equipped to accompany their children in instilling Islamic values based on the Qur’an at home. This issue is compounded by parental objections to tuition fees, which creates financial challenges for institutions. Finally, offline learning has been the subject of criticism from the community, which indirectly affects the learning process.Research implications/limitations – This study used a qualitative method related to the problems of learning the Qur’an in ECE during the COVID-19 pandemic. Practical implications – The research presents significant implications for developing Al-Qur’an learning post-pandemic. It also provides valuable insights into formulating policies about Al-Qur’an learning during pandemics. Additionally, the study sheds light on the effectiveness of character building during the challenging times of the COVID-19 pandemic.Originality/value – Potential avenues for further investigation could include examining the effects of COVID-19 on the acquisition of Qur’anic knowledge during early childhood and its potential impacts on personality development. Such research could contribute to a deeper understanding of how the pandemic has influenced educational and psychological outcomes in this context. Paper type Research paper

Abstract

Purpose – The pandemic-era policy that requires schools to conduct face-to-face meetings is an issue that cannot be taken "lightly". The trend of face-to-face learning that has entrenched makes schools, including ECCE institutions, "profitable". There are not many alternatives that can be done, other than using online face to face applications that have been popular such as Whatsapp and other Messanger. However, the use of these applications cannot cover all Early Childhood Education (ECE) learning needs with their own characteristics that are generally different from learning at other levels of education. Therefore, a more suitable online learning system is needed such as through the Si-Pappa Information System/Application. Design/methods/approach – For this purpose, in this study, the PAR (Participation Action Research) Method was used with assisted objects, namely 10 ECE Institutions in Palopo City which have been partners of the Islamic Early Childhood Education IAIN Palopo Study Program. Data collection methods utilizing Performance Tests are reinforced by unstructured interviews and direct observation. Findings – The results of data analysis, the parameters of the results of the implementation of service were achieved, namely the average participant who was able to master the parameters of more than 83%. From this, it can be concluded that the Application of Information Systems (Si-Pappa) can improve the effectiveness of ECCE services during the pandemic in Palopo City. Research implications/limitations – This study related to the problems of learning effectiveness during the COVID-19 pandemic.  Practical implications – The use of the Si-Pappa application allows parents to conduct direct and measurable consultations from the existing menu, making teachers provide methodical assistance because the video calls made are directly integrated into each participant's account so that it can be directly reviewed or confirmed from other menus such as autentic assessment conditions that show photos of children, flow charts or worksheets of learning activities, anecdotal notes related to special or unique conditions of children, and various other comparative data that can be used in determining mood conditions, causes used in making decisions to follow up to determine a wiser and more comprehensive solution for children. Originality/value – The impact of teacher understanding of the concept of learning from home in the context of using applications is that teachers not only view learning applications such as Si-Pappa only as learning tools or media, but are able to appreciate the presence of applications as assistance partners that will make learning more effective.
