Abstract

Naturalist intelligence is a crucial aspect of early childhood development as it encourages children to recognize and directly interact with the natural environment. However, children's interaction with nature has declined due to the dominance of academic curricula and the increasing use of technology in learning, which limits environmental exploration and potentially hinders their cognitive and social development. Amid these challenges, it is essential to understand how learning strategies can be optimized to stimulate children's naturalist intelligence in a contextual manner that reflects the dynamics of field implementation, the challenges encountered, and the solutions adopted. This study employed a descriptive qualitative method using a case study approach. The research subjects were 12 students at Bahtera Multiple Intelligence Preschool, Malaysia. Data collection techniques included observation, interviews, and documentation of learning activities involving children aged 3–4 years. The results indicate that nature exploration, messy play, and nature walks are effective approaches in stimulating naturalist intelligence. These strategies are supported by the use of indoor exploration spaces and nature-based materials as solutions to external constraints such as weather conditions and high exposure to digital technology among children. These findings contribute to the development of adaptive learning strategies tailored to the characteristics of naturalist intelligence in early childhood.

Abstract

This study aims to identify, map, and analyze various learning strategies for gifted and talented students in primary schools based on recent scientific literature. The method used is a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) conducted following the PRISMA 2020 framework. The sample comprised 28 scientific articles published between 2020 and 2024, retrieved from SCOPUS, Web of Science, ProQuest, Garuda, and SINTA databases. Data were collected using an extraction sheet containing variables such as title, author, year, country, method, sample, and findings related to learning strategies for gifted students. The data were analyzed descriptively and thematically to identify patterns, trends, implementation constraints, and implications associated with various learning strategies. The results reveal that differentiated instruction, digital technology integration, and project based constructivist approaches can optimize the development of gifted students, although their implementation in primary schools is still limited due to insufficient teacher training, technological constraints, and the absence of adequate implementation guidelines. The novelty of this study lies in its comprehensive synthesis that explicitly compares previous reviews and highlights the unique contribution of this work in linking instructional strategies with policy implications and teacher professional development. Furthermore, this study provides practical implications for teachers, curriculum developers, and policymakers by offering evidence based recommendations to enhance instructional practices. In conclusion, an adaptive learning approach based on the needs of gifted students requires teacher training, curriculum adjustment, and strengthened technological infrastructure to ensure effective and sustainable learning practices.

Abstract

Bullying in early childhood is a serious issue that negatively affects children’s social and emotional development. At this stage, children may act either as perpetrators or victims, both of which can influence character formation, emotional regulation, the ability to build social relationships, and the development of prosocial behavior. This study aims to examine the relationship between bullying behavior and social-emotional development in early childhood. A quantitative approach with a correlational method was employed. The sample consisted of 398 early childhood students from one early childhood education institution, selected through a total sampling technique. The research instrument used was a Likert-scale questionnaire that had been tested for validity and reliability. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive statistics, Spearman’s correlation test, cross-tabulation, and ordinal logistic regression. The findings indicate that most children fall into the low category of bullying and the moderate-to-high category of social-emotional development. Spearman’s correlation test revealed a significant positive relationship between bullying and social-emotional development (p = 0.001; r = 0.177). Furthermore, ordinal logistic regression analysis showed that social-emotional development significantly affects the level of bullying (p = 0.007; parameter estimate = 2.818). These results suggest that bullying behavior is significantly associated with the social-emotional development of early childhood students.

Abstract

Physical education (PE) plays a pivotal role in fostering children's motor skills and physical fitness, especially at the primary school level. However, declining levels of physical activity and student engagement have prompted educators to seek more interactive and effective teaching strategies. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of flashcard-based instruction in improving the physical fitness of elementary school students during PE lessons. Unlike previous studies that mainly applied flashcards for cognitive learning or basic motor instruction, this study examines their direct impact on physical fitness outcomes. This approach positions flashcards not only as conceptual aids but as visual-motor triggers designed to enhance exercise intensity and movement quality during PE lessons. A quasi-experimental design with a pre-test–post-test control group format was employed. A total of 84 fifth and six-grade students from two public elementary schools in West Java, Indonesia, participated in the study. The experimental group (n=42) received PE instruction integrated with flashcard media, while the control group (n=42) followed conventional PE lessons without media aids. Physical fitness was measured using the Indonesian Student Physical Fitness Test (TKSI) Phase C, comprising five test items. Data were analyzed using paired sample t-tests and independent sample t-tests. Both groups showed significant improvement in post-test scores (p < 0.05). However, the experimental group exhibited a significantly higher gain score (M = 5.12) compared to the control group (M = 2.34), indicating greater effectiveness of flashcard-based instruction. Flashcards enhance student engagement, comprehension, and movement execution in PE lessons. As a practical and low-cost instructional tool, flashcards hold promise for improving physical fitness outcomes among elementary school students, particularly in resource-limited educational settings.

Abstract

Management is a structured and planned process conducted through several stages to achieve predetermined goals and objectives. Health and nutrition services are defined as efforts provided by schools or health-related organizations to optimize early childhood development. Holistic Integrative (HI) activities are government-initiated programs designed to stimulate key aspects of early childhood development through collaboration with schools, parents, and relevant institutions or agencies. Holistic integrated health and nutrition service management consists of planning, organizing, implementing, and supervising the HI process. This research was conducted in Kaliwates District, Jember Regency, specifically at Rukun Harapan Kindergarten and PGRI Kebon Agung Kindergarten, utilizing a descriptive qualitative method. The data collection process involved interviews, observation, and documentation. This study aims to analyze and elucidate holistic integrative health and nutrition service management practices suitable for kindergarten institutions. Furthermore, the findings may help the local government make informed policy decisions and provide foundational considerations for the development of holistic integrative health and nutrition service management concepts. The results demonstrate that both institutions engage in planning for health and nutrition services, including scheduling, operational budgeting, allocation of human resources, provision of supporting resources, and organizational management related to the division of health and nutrition service tasks. Additionally, the study identifies aspects of implementation and supervision management, as well as obstacles encountered in delivering holistic health and nutrition services in both institutions. In conclusion, several aspects can be optimized since they are not in line with the rules set by the government regarding early childhood education (PAUD) in kindergarten.

Abstract

This study addresses the critical need for innovative digital media to instill Religious Moderation (ECRM) and Islamic values ​​early, contrasting traditional methods with the pervasive digital environment young children inhabit. The primary objective is to develop a scientifically grounded ECRM Conceptual Framework and produce a detailed Digital Product Blueprint for an Interactive Mobile Game, aligning with CEJ's focus on Holistic & Islamic ECCD and Neuro-Pedagogy. Employing the Research & Development (R&D) approach using the 4D model (Define-Design), the research scope halts at the design stage. The Define phase encompasses a needs assessment to analyze the alignment between existing Islamic curriculum, the necessity for early radicalism prevention, and young children's high digital exposure. Data were collected via document analysis (e.g., of the current PAI curriculum and international journals on digital literacy), supported by existing research on the integration of digital tools in religious education. The Design phase involved drafting the ECRM Mobile Game blueprint, detailing game mechanics, narrative flow (storyboard), and UI/UX optimized for neuro-pedagogical principles to foster affective and behavioral growth. This ensures the output is an expert-reviewed, technology-based product blueprint rooted in Islamic educational objectives. The key finding is the production of a validated ECRM Mobile Game Blueprint, ready for prototyping and future effectiveness testing.
