Abstract

Nowadays, gadgets can be utilized as a tool to stimulate children’ language growth and development. The research is intended to determine the response of early childhood due to the use of gadgets screen as a stimulus for children's language development viewed from behavioristic theory. There are 3 subjects in this research, namely early childhood aged 30-50 months. This research method employs a naturalistic approach. The result reveals that gadgets as a stimulus for early childhood language development viewed from behavioristic theory show different responses, namely 2 children give a negative response and 1 child with a positive response. The negative response is the child experiences speech delays, while the positive response is the child master’s foreign vocabulary and is more expressive in retelling what the child watches from the gadget. Furthermore, it can be concluded that gadget as a stimulus for language development generates negative and positive responses for early childhood, so that adults should be judicious in facing the children by paying attention in some cases, such as timing in using gadgets, content, types of assistance, and giving them many proportions to interact directly.

Abstract

Junior high school students need to be accustomed to thinking creatively. The 2015 TIMSS results show that the creative thinking ability of junior high school students still need to be optimized. This research aimed to discuss creative mathematical thinking ability based on sel efficacy on an independent learning through Google Classroom support. This research employed qualitative descriptive design. The population of this research was the students of class VIII. The subjects of the research were 6 students of class VIII selected based on three categories of self efficacy, they were: high, medium, and low. Two students were found in the high self-efficacy category, two students from the medium self-efficacy category and two students from the low self-efficacy category. The results of this research showed that students with high self-efficacy level were able to complete the four qualifications of creative thinking abilities, they were fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration. Students with the medium self-efficacy level were still having difficulty showing up ideas to determine the unusual way of being used. Students with low self-efficacy level had difficulty in understanding the problem so that it is only able to meet one qualification of creative thinking ability that is fluency. Based on the explanation of the results of this research, it can be concluded that no student with low self efficacy level has a high score of creative thinking ability
