Abstract

The background of the research is how to low ability to recognize mathematical concepts of early childhood. The low ability is due to the use of instructional media which is less enjoyable for children when playing and learning in class. Gender of boys and girls may have different orientations in playing and in recognizing mathematical concepts. The purpose of this study is to analyze the differences in the influence of the use of animated films and animation on the ability to recognize mathematical concepts, analyze the differences in the influence of gender on the ability to recognize mathematical concepts, and analyze the interaction between animated films and gender in their effects on the ability to recognize mathematical concepts early childhood. This research uses a quantitative method with a quasi-experimental design using Factorial (2x2). A population of 151 children with a purposive sampling technique obtained a sample of 105 kindergarten B children in the Dahlia PAUD cluster in Batangan’s Kecamatan. The collecting of data in this study from the results of observations and tests and analyzed using two-way ANOVA. The results showed, there were differences in the influence of the use of animated films and animation, F = 17.546 in sig. 0.001, there is a difference in the influence of gender, F = 5.399 with sig. 0.022 and there is no interaction between animated films with gender differences in the ability to recognize mathematical concepts in early childhood, F = 0.130 with sig. 0.719. This research can be used as an alternative in choosing fun learning media to introduce mathematical concepts in early childhood.

Abstract

The process of increasing of motor skills can be done with finger painting activities. The importance of finger painting activities on the development of fine motor and gross motor skills can help improve children's creativity and art. Finger painting in school is drawing activities by using fingertips and colour pulp directly to darwing media. The purpose of the study is to analyze the development of gross motor and fine motor skills in finger painting activities. This research uses qualitative research methods. The approach model used is a case study with 37 childrens of St. Arnoldus Yanssen and Aegela kindergartens the source of research data were, head of kindergarten. Teachers and parents. Data collection techniques are observation, interview, documentation. The criteria used in the research are underdeveloped (UD), beginning to develop (BD), very well developed (VD), and develop as expected (DE) according to Permendikbud about National Standards For Early Childhood Education. Data obtained from kindergarten Arnold Yanssen show that indicators using the right and left hand tendto lead criteria beginning to develop (BD). Data obtained from samples at the Aegela Kindergarten show the highest level of achievement is beginning to develop (BD) in skilled indicators using the right hand and left hand while for the underveloped achievement (UD) the highest in drawing indicators according to his ideas and doing detailed body movements . The results of this study are gross motor development and fine motor development of children in two kindergatens tend to lead to the criteria of beginning to develop for gross motor on the indicator using the right hand and left hand, while fine motor on the indicator self expression through drawing motion. Teachers in kindergarten need to increase knowledge about the development of children's gross motor and fine motor skills, as well as finger painting. It is intended that the teacher can see the full development of the child according to age and then give the children the right stimulus.

Abstract

21st century needs human resources that have an adequate ability to face the global era. This ability can trained at the education stage by using a good method in learning, discovery learning can be choices to release that. This study's aim is to analyze the effect of learning with discovery models on 21st-century skills for elementary school students. This study uses experimental research. Experimental research method is a research conducted on variables for which data are not yet available that it needs to be manipulated through the treatment of research subjects in which the impact is measured. Results of the creative thinking skills gain test showed the average value of the experimental class was 0.72 while the average value of the control class was 0,39. This shows the discovery model gives more influence on the student’s skills to think creatively. Results of the critical thinking skills gain test showed the average value of the experimental class was 0.78 while the average value of the control class was 0.60. This shows the discovery model gives more influence on the student’s skills to think critically. The results of communication skills test showed a significance value of 0.82. This value is higher than 0.05, it means that students communication skills with the discovery model are not higher than group of students that learning with the expository model. The result of collaboration skills showed a significance value of 0.91. This value is greater than 0.05, it’s means that the collaboration skills of students with discovery models are not higher than those of students who learn with expository models. This research is expected to be a reference for teachers in using learning models when teaching.

Abstract

The 4Cs in 21st century skills consist of critical thinking, creativity, communication and collaboration. The skills are very importance in solving problem should be owned by students to face current century global advancement. This research aims to describe problem solving skill pattern of students based on cognitive style after being taught by Problem Based Learning (PBL) model with Ethnomathematics nuances. This mixed method research used sequential explanatory design. The qualitative research part was conducted first and then continued by quantitative research part. The qualitative research used technic and source triangulation. This study consisted of 23 subjects. They were selected based cognitive style test by using Matching Familiar Figure Test (MFFT) at fifth grade of Public Primary School Citimun I, Sumedang. Techniques of collecting data were observation, test, interview, and documentation. Reflective and Impulsive students could understand problems, design solution, and promote problem solving although they were incapable of accurately rechecking. Slow-Inaccurate students could understand problems but they were incapable to plan solution and solve problem. They also could not do rechecking accurately. It could be concluded that Reflective - Impulsive cognitive style typed students had more dominant in problem solving skill than Slow-Inaccurate cognitive typed students. Thus, PBL model with ethomathematics nuances can improve students' problem solving skills.
