Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of sexual education content at the primary education level as a preventive effort against sexual violence toward children of Indonesian migrant workers (IMWs). The study is motivated by the high risk of sexual violence faced by IMW children due to limited parental supervision, unstable family environments, and restricted access to early sexual education, which results in low understanding of body autonomy, safe and unsafe touch, and self-protection strategies. This research employed a quantitative method using a pretest–posttest design supported by qualitative data from interviews. The research subjects consisted of 25 primary school students who are children of Indonesian migrant workers, with interactive sexual education content as the research object. Data were collected through questionnaires, tests, observations, and interviews, and analyzed using validity and reliability tests, descriptive statistics, and the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. The results indicate that the instruments were valid and reliable (Cronbach’s Alpha = 0.914) and that there was a significant increase in children’s knowledge after the implementation of sexual education content. Therefore, sexual education content is proven to be an effective preventive strategy in nonformal education settings.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the Let's Read digital storybook application on the Indonesian language dialogue skills of students at the Kepong Guidance Center (SB), Malaysia. Dialogue skills are an important part of oral language skills because they are related to the ability to convey ideas, respond to interlocutors, and interact actively. The study used a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design of the one-group pretest–posttest design. The research subjects were 25 students with a total sampling technique. Data collection used a structured observation instrument containing 15 aspects of statements with 5 indicators of dialogue skills. Data analysis was carried out through descriptive statistics and inferential tests using SPSS including validity, reliability, normality, and paired sample t-test. The results showed that the instrument was valid and highly reliable. Pretest and posttest data were normally distributed and homogeneous. The average score of dialogue skills increased from 36.2 to 48.9. The paired sample t-test showed a significance of 0.000 (<0.05), so the Let's Read application is effective in improving students' dialogue skills and can be an alternative innovative learning media in non-formal education.
