Abstract

This study aims to design a conceptual learning model, referred to as Meaningful-Mindful-Joyful (M3J) Learning, intended to strengthen six core twenty-first-century competencies (6Cs: Character, Citizenship, Critical Thinking, Creativity, Collaboration, and Communication) among university students enrolled in the compulsory Indonesian Language course (Mata Kuliah Wajib Kurikulum/MKWK Bahasa Indonesia), which has tended to remain cognitive-mechanistic and superficially digitalized without addressing students' affective and reflective dimensions. The model was developed through a Research and Development (R&D) approach adopting the Plomp model, focusing on its initial investigation and design phases; needs analysis was conducted through literature review, classroom observation in three higher-education institutions, and in-depth interviews with Indonesian-language lecturers and students, followed by the conceptual formulation of three integrated pillars—meaningful (contextual-reflective), mindful (contemplative awareness), and joyful (a positive learning ecosystem)—mapped onto the 6Cs competency framework. The design process produced a theoretically grounded conceptual model that positions the affective-reflective dimension as an explicit component of Indonesian-language instruction, distinguishing it from prior innovative language-learning models confined largely to cognitive-instructional aspects; this conceptual model is proposed as the foundation for subsequent empirical validation, practicality testing, and effectiveness trials involving experimental and control groups of students enrolled in the Indonesian Language course. Keywords: M3J learning model; 6Cs competencies; deep learning approach; Indonesian language course.

Abstract

Beginning reading skills are fundamental abilities that support children's academic development and communication. However, children with intellectual disabilities often experience difficulties in recognizing letters, associating symbols with sounds, and reading simple words due to limitations in cognitive abilities, attention, and memory. This study aims to describe the improvement of beginning reading skills through animated flashcard media among children with disabilities at SLB ACD Pertiwi Mojokerto City. This study employed a descriptive qualitative approach with seven fourth-grade students with intellectual disabilities aged 10–11 years as research participants. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, and analyzed through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that the use of animated flashcard media provided positive developments in students’ beginning reading skills, as indicated by improvements in recognizing simple words, associating pictures with written words, reading words, and increasing students’ attention and involvement during learning activities. Animated flashcard media provided a more concrete learning experience through the combination of pictures and words, helping children with intellectual disabilities understand reading concepts more easily. Furthermore, the use of this media also increased students’ motivation and confidence in participating in reading activities. Based on the findings, animated flashcard media can be considered an alternative instructional medium to support the improvement of beginning reading skills among children with disabilities in special education settings.
