Abstract

This research was motivated by the phenomenon of children increasingly engaging in gadgets and screen-based activities, which may negatively impact their development in the future. Therefore, this study focuses on introducing chess as an effort to improve memory skills in early childhood. The aim of this research is to explore how the introduction of chess to young children can enhance their memory abilities. This study employed Classroom Action Research (CAR) conducted in two cycles, involving children aged 5–6 years as the subjects. Data collection techniques included observation, tests, interviews, and documentation, which were analyzed using a qualitative approach through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that children's memory abilities improved by 80.16%, categorized as Very Well Developed (BSB). These findings indicate that introducing chess is effective for use in early childhood education. The results are recommended as a reference for teachers, schools, and future researchers in developing strategies to support cognitive development in early childhood.

Abstract

Stunting is a chronic nutritional problem that is still a serious concern in Indonesia, especially in West Nusa Tenggara, where the prevalence reaches more than 30%. In addition to impacting delayed physical growth, stunting also has implications for children's brain and cognitive development, which is characterized by low IQ scores, language delays, and reduced problem-solving skills. This study aims to analyze how sensory modalities can be used to stimulate the brains of stunted children in Mataram, focusing on strategies applied by teachers and parents. The study used a qualitative descriptive approach with a phenomenological design, involving six stunted children at Dwijendra Mataram Kindergarten, as well as supporting data from teachers and parents through observation, structured interviews, documentation, and simple questionnaires. The results indicated that stunted children responded more slowly to visual and auditory tasks but were more adaptive to tactile and kinesthetic stimulation, while 70% of teachers had never received special training and 65% of parents did not understand the importance of sensory-based brain stimulation. These findings confirm that stunting in Mataram is not only influenced by malnutrition, but also by limited stimulation of the human senses, namely the senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch. both at school and at home. The originality of this research lies in the introduction of the concept of modality task fit, which emphasizes the importance of choosing the type of stimulation according to the strength of the sensory pathway of stunted children. This concept contributes to early childhood education and public health by offering a precise, systematic, and effective intervention framework. The study's conclusions emphasized the importance of combining nutritional improvement with multi-sensory-based brain stimulation to optimize the cognitive development of stunted children.
