Abstract

The limited integration of digital learning media in early childhood education may constrain young learners’ opportunities to develop digital literacy, technical skills, and creativity through meaningful technology-based activities. This study aimed to develop and evaluate Microsoft Paint–based worksheets designed to enhance young children’s digital literacy, creativity, and technical skills. The study employed a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the ADDIE model, comprising Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. The participants were children aged 5–6 years, supported by early childhood teachers and education experts as validators. Data were collected through systematic observations, digital skills performance tests, and validation questionnaires. The data were analyzed using descriptive qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis of expert validation and pretest–posttest performance scores. The findings indicated that the developed worksheets achieved a high level of feasibility, with an expert validation score of 90%. Following implementation, children’s technical skills in operating Microsoft Paint features increased by 45%, with the improvement reaching statistical significance (p < 0.05). The activities also provided opportunities for children to explore creativity through digital drawing, object creation, and illustrated storytelling. These findings suggest that Microsoft Paint–based worksheets can serve as an accessible and structured medium for integrating technology into early childhood learning. The study implies that developmentally appropriate digital worksheets can support the integration of digital literacy, creativity, and technical skills in early childhood education.

Abstract

The limitations of learning materials—which remain conventional and unengaging—are one of the obstacles to supporting early reading skills in children aged 4–5 years. This study aims to develop and test the feasibility of digital storybooks as a medium to support early reading skills in children aged 4–5 years. This study employed the Research and Development (R&D) method using the ADDIE model, which includes the stages of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The study subjects included one content expert, one media expert, and 45 children aged 4–5 years from three early childhood education institutions, with 20 children participating in the main field test. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and validation questionnaires. The data were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively using feasibility percentage analysis. The results showed that the digital storybook medium received a feasibility percentage of 84% from the content expert and 86% from the media expert, both of which fall into the “highly feasible” category. The field trial demonstrated positive responses and engagement from the children during reading activities using the digital storybook medium. Thus, the digital storybook medium is suitable for use as a learning medium and can serve as an alternative to support early reading activities for children aged 4–5 years.

Abstract

Indonesia, as a multicultural nation, faces challenges in fostering tolerance and respect for differences from an early age. Religious moderation education is essential for developing children’s ability to live harmoniously in diverse environments. However, its implementation in inclusive early childhood education (ECE) settings requires further exploration. This study aims to analyze the implementation of religious moderation values, identify factors supporting their internalization, and examine their implications for early childhood education. A qualitative approach was employed using a participatory ethnographic case study design. The participants included the school principal, teachers, staff, parents, and children aged 4–6 years involved in educational activities at an inclusive ECE institution serving children from diverse religious backgrounds. Data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation, then analyzed interactively using the Miles and Huberman model, which involves data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing and verification. The findings indicate that the values of tasamuh (tolerance), i’tidal (justice), muwathanah (national commitment), and qudwah (exemplary conduct) are internalized through daily routines, thematic activities involving cultural and religious diversity, and teachers’ role modeling. Parental involvement also supports the continuity of these values between school and home. The study concludes that religious moderation can be integrated into ECE through inclusive learning environments, role modeling, and family collaboration. These findings highlight the need to strengthen teachers’ competencies and school–parent partnerships to support character education that respects diversity.

Abstract

Excessive smartphone use among young children may reduce parent–child interaction, limit social activities, and potentially hinder cognitive development and diminish children’s motivation to learn. From the perspective of Vygotsky’s social constructivist theory, children’s development occurs through interaction with more knowledgeable individuals, including parents. Therefore, parental involvement is essential in guiding children’s smartphone use. This study aimed to analyze the role of filial therapy in minimizing the negative effects of smartphone use on children’s mental health and learning motivation. The study employed a quantitative approach using an analytical descriptive design focusing on causal relationships. The participants were 75 parents of Kindergarten A children aged 18–38 years. Data were collected through questionnaires using Likert-scale instruments and analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). The findings indicated that the implementation of filial therapy through parental involvement and guidance contributed to minimizing the negative effects of smartphone use on children’s mental health and learning motivation. Uncontrolled smartphone use tended to reduce children’s interest in learning activities and social interaction. Thus, parental guidance through filial therapy can serve as a strategy for promoting more controlled and constructive smartphone use among young children. The findings imply that parents should provide alternative activities that support children’s development, such as physical exercise, reading, painting, social interaction, and shared play activities, to strengthen parent–child relationships and promote children’s mental well-being and motivation to learn.

Abstract

The background of this research stems from the issue of low literacy levels among children in Indonesia, as well as the limited availability of interactive learning media that suit the characteristics of early childhood. By integrating visuals, audio, and animation into flashcard media, children are expected to more easily recognize letters, understand word structures, and increase learning motivation through enjoyable and meaningful experiences. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of multimedia-based flashcards with a logographic syllable approach in improving early literacy skills in young children. The research method employed was a quasi-experimental design with a pretest–posttest control group. The research subjects consisted of 30 kindergarten students, divided into two groups. Data were collected through pretest and posttest observations, then analyzed using normality tests, homogeneity tests, and t-tests with the help of SPSS 22. The results showed a significant difference between the experimental and control groups. The average posttest score of the experimental group (83.47) was much higher than that of the control group (46.60). These findings demonstrate that multimedia-based flashcards with a logographic syllable approach are effective in improving early literacy skills in young children and in supporting enjoyable learning. The implications of this study indicate that multimedia-based flashcards with a logographic syllable approach can serve as an innovative alternative for early childhood teachers in interactive literacy learning.

Abstract

Daycare management in Indonesia still shows gaps between national standards and actual practices, particularly in program planning, organizational structure, work plan implementation, and supervision, resulting in uneven quality of early childhood education services. This study aims to analyze the implementation of daycare management standards based on Permendikbud No. 137 of 2014 concerning National Standards for Early Childhood Education (PAUD). The research uses a qualitative method with a case study approach, through interviews with four daycare heads and four teachers in Malang, with data analysis using the Miles and Huberman interactive model, which includes data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results of the study show variations in the implementation of standards. Program planning is not yet fully based on the holistic developmental needs of children. Organizational aspects show a management structure that is not yet systematic. The implementation of work plans is in line with the curriculum but faces challenges in terms of continuity of activities and parental involvement, while supervision is still internal and not yet optimal. In conclusion, the implementation of daycare management standards is not consistent in all aspects, requiring strengthening in governance. The implications of this study emphasize the importance of daycare managers' efforts to optimize standards-based management practices, as well as the need for regulatory and policy support from the government to improve the quality of early childhood education services in a sustainable manner.

Abstract

Early childhood sexuality education is essential for equipping children with an understanding of body parts, self-care, privacy boundaries, and self-protection. However, its implementation continues to face challenges, including cultural taboos, limited knowledge among educators and parents, and a lack of digital learning media suited to young children’s developmental characteristics. This study aims to develop and evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of TAP TAP, an Android-based application for early childhood sexuality education that integrates a deep learning approach. The study employed a research and development method using the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation). The participants included children aged four to six years, teachers, and parents from two early childhood education institutions. Data were collected through observations, interviews, and questionnaires to assess application feasibility, user responses, and the development of children’s understanding of sexuality education. The data were analyzed descriptively through formative and summative evaluations. The results indicate that TAP TAP was rated as highly feasible based on assessments by subject matter, media, and information technology experts. Teachers and parents provided very positive responses to the application, while observations during small- and large-group trials indicated a very high level of development in children’s understanding of sexuality education. These findings suggest that TAP TAP has the potential to serve as a learning medium for sexuality education that is appropriate for young children’s developmental characteristics. The implication is that teachers and parents can use the application to support meaningful learning, foster self-awareness, and create enjoyable learning experiences through guidance tailored to children’s developmental stages.

Abstract

The implementation of inclusive-integrative character education in PAUD still faces obstacles in the form of uneven stakeholder involvement and a school culture that is not always supportive. This situation causes the goals of the I-ICE Program to not be achieved optimally in various PAUD units. This study aims to analyze the influence of partnership and school culture on the implementation of the Inclusive-Integrative Character Education (I-ICE) Program. The study used a quantitative approach with a survey design and involved 32 respondents consisting of teachers, parents, and education staff with diverse educational backgrounds, statuses, and career paths. Participants were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected through a Likert scale questionnaire and analyzed using multiple regression analysis after meeting the classical assumption test. The results showed that partnership and school culture had a positive and significant effect on program implementation (p < 0.001), with an R² value of 0.602. The study concluded that the success of the I-ICE program was determined by cross-engagement collaboration and a supportive school culture. The implication is that strengthening strategic partnerships and habituating positive values needs to be prioritized to maintain the sustainability of the I-ICE program. These findings confirm that partnerships contribute more than school culture in driving the effectiveness of program implementation.

Abstract

Cases of sexual harassment and sexual violence against young children remain a serious problem in Indonesia. Children aged 5–6 years are in a critical period of development; however, many still struggle to identify body parts, understand the functions of body organs, and distinguish private body parts that need to be protected. This situation is exacerbated by the limited provision of sexual education in schools, as the topic is often considered taboo, as well as the lack of learning media suited to young children's developmental characteristics. In response to these challenges, this study aimed to develop an educational animated video to improve children's understanding of sexual education through an innovative approach that is child-friendly, enjoyable, and consistent with moral values. The study employed a Research and Development (R&D) method using the ADDIE model, which consists of five stages: analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The participants were 17 children aged 5–6 years at TK Bakti Mentari, Mantikulore District. The research instruments included observation, interviews, documentation, and validation by material and media experts. The validation results indicated that the animated video achieved an overall score of 74%, placing it in the “Feasible” category for use. An effectiveness test using a paired-samples t-test revealed a significant difference between the pretest score (49.35) and the posttest score (89.29), with a significance value of p < 0.001. These findings indicate that the educational animated video improved children's understanding of sexual education. Therefore, this media can serve as a strategic alternative for teachers and parents to introduce sexual education from an early age in an appropriate, context-sensitive, and preventive manner to help protect children from the risk of sexual violence.
