Abstract

This study aims to analyze the application of thematic songs in the development of English vocabulary related to rainbow colors in early childhood. The author chose this topic because of the lack of English vocabulary mastery in children, especially in recognizing colors. The methods used in this study were observation of children, interviews with teachers and parents, and documentation of learning activities. The research subjects were children aged 4-5 years. The results showed that singing songs was an effective method for increasing children's vocabulary, as the rhythm and melody made it easier for children to remember new words such as "red," "orange," "yellow," "green," "blue," "indigo," and "violet." Through the rhythm and repetition in the songs, the children showed enthusiasm by improving their ability to repeat the lyrics and identify colors more quickly. However, some children still had difficulty remembering colors. Overall, this method has proven to be effective, enjoyable, and accelerates children's English vocabulary acquisition, as well as supporting early childhood language development. Overall, this method has proven to be enjoyable and accelerates the development of children's color vocabulary, especially rainbow colors.

Abstract

Early childhood education serves as a crucial foundation for shaping children’s thinking abilities, character, and personality, which in turn determine the quality of future human resources. Critical thinking skills are essential competencies that must be nurtured from an early age so that children are able to analyze, solve problems, and make evidence-based decisions. This study aims to analyze the implementation of science activities as a medium for developing critical thinking skills in early childhood at KB Aisyiyah Pracimantoro. A qualitative approach with a case study design was used to gain an in-depth understanding of the dynamics of science learning. Data were collected through participatory observations, in-depth interviews with teachers and four children aged 4-5 years, and documentation analysis covering the learning period from May to August 2025. The findings indicate that the science activity themed "A Balloon Inflates Without Being Blown" successfully stimulated all indicators of critical thinking, including the ability to ask questions through "why" and "how," observe and analyze process details, make proportional predictions about the relationship between quantity and outcome, solve problems with perseverance, evaluate results by providing reasons, as well as communicate and argue through sequential explanations and articulation of causal understanding. This study highlights that simple inquiry-based science activities are effective strategies for developing early childhood critical thinking skills and are highly suitable for integration into sustainable early childhood education curricula.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the implementation of learning at the Natural Materials Center in stimulating the sensory-motor development of children aged 4-5 years. It also seeks to identify effective forms of play activities and examine the supporting and inhibiting factors influencing its implementation. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach conducted at Kartika III-16 Depo Kindergarten, South Klaten, Central Java. The research subjects consisted of classroom teachers and children aged 4-5 years. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation to obtain comprehensive information regarding learning activities and children's development. Data analysis was carried out through three stages: data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing.The findings indicate that learning at the Natural Materials Center is effective in improving children's sensory-motor skills. Exploratory activities using natural materials such as leaves, sand, clay, water, and grains stimulated hand-eye coordination, strengthened finger muscles, and enhanced precision and concentration. Teachers played a crucial role as facilitators, motivators, and innovators in designing engaging, enjoyable, and developmentally appropriate activities. Supporting factors included teacher creativity in utilizing natural materials, children's enthusiasm for exploration, and active support from parents and the school. However, limited availability of natural materials and differences in children's motor abilities were identified as inhibiting factors.This study demonstrates that learning at the Natural Materials Center not only enhances sensory-motor development but also contributes positively to children's cognitive, socio-emotional, language, and character development in early childhood education.

Abstract

This study aims to describe in depth the efforts to increase children's creativity through the use of natural materials as learning media at BA Aisyiyah Jekani. The background of this research is based on the importance of developing creativity in early childhood as one of the aspects of development that must be stimulated from an early age. Children's creativity is often underdeveloped because learning activities are still dominated by factory-made or printed media, which provide limited opportunities for children to explore freely. Therefore, teachers need to design learning activities that are concrete, engaging, and contextual by utilizing materials that are easily found in the child's surrounding environment.This research used a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. The research subjects consisted of class A teachers and students at BA Aisyiyah Jekani. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis was carried out through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing.The results show that the use of natural materials such as leaves, twigs, stones, seeds, and sand has a positive impact on increasing children's creativity. Children became more active, enthusiastic, and able to produce various creative works using natural materials from their surroundings. In addition, natural materials were effective in fostering children's learning interest, developing fine motor skills, and instilling a sense of responsibility in maintaining the environment. This study concludes that natural materials are effective learning media in improving learning outcomes and student participation at BA Aisyiyah Jekani.

Abstract

There is an urgent need to instill environmental awareness in early childhood (4-5 years old) at PGRI Jati Kindergarten. The purpose of this study was to test the effectiveness of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) approach with the "Grophy Garbage" project model in increasing children's environmental awareness. The research method used was a descriptive qualitative approach with a specific study design, involving 15 Group A children at PGRI Jati Kindergarten. This rigorous methodology applies the Kemmis and McTaggart spiral model (planning, implementation, observation, and reflection) to ensure continuous improvement. Data were collected through structured observations of seven indicators of environmental attitudes, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The novelty of this study lies in the integration of the Grophy Garbage project model—which combines visualization of ideas (Grophy) and exploration of used materials (Garbage)—into the Problem Based Learning (PBL) framework in PAUD. This approach is specifically tailored to the characteristics of early childhood, enabling creative expression and contextual learning based on real problems. Research consistently shows that the implementation of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) through "Grophy Garbage" effectively increases environmental awareness in children aged 4-5 years. Children become more enthusiastic and disciplined in disposing of waste, are able to distinguish between types of waste, and are actively involved in making recycled products from plastic bottles, which also improves their fine motor skills. All indicators of environmental awareness, from attention to cleanliness, participation in caring for plants, to collaboration and empathy, show positive developments. The main challenges faced include limited teacher resources and the need for ongoing digital literacy training, but the benefits significantly shape children's ecological character.

Abstract

This qualitative study explores how elementary English teachers negotiate their understanding and practice of reading pedagogy in an era where artificial intelligence tools can instantaneously summarize, analyze, and interpret complex texts. Drawing on reader-response theory and postmodern pedagogical frameworks, this research examines the tensions between traditional notions of "deep reading" and AI-mediated comprehension practices. Through semi-structured interviews with twelve English teachers from diverse school contexts, this study investigates how educators conceptualize authentic comprehension, critical literacy, and the role of intellectual struggle in reading development when students have access to AI assistance. The findings reveal significant concerns about the erosion of effortful reading practices, the shift from personal interpretation to AI verification, and the complex negotiation between accessibility and intellectual growth. Using the pedagogical narrative of Freedom Writers (2007) as a conceptual anchor, this study argues that while AI tools may democratize access to difficult texts, they simultaneously threaten the transformative, meaning-making processes that have long been central to reading education. This research contributes to ongoing debates about literacy education in digital contexts and offers implications for reimagining reading pedagogy that acknowledges both the affordances and limitations of AI technologies. This study particularly focuses on elementary school teachers in Surakarta, Indonesia, as they navigate how to integrate AI technology in early reading instruction while maintaining authentic comprehension and character-based literacy learning.

Abstract

This paper analyzes Supreme Court Decision No. 179 K/Ag/2017 on murabahah financing disputes. It focuses on force majeure, the principle of pacta sunt servanda, and good faith in assessing debtor business losses. This analysis helps explain the Supreme Court's decision within the framework of Islamic economic law. The method used is philosophical jurisprudence, with a descriptive-analytical approach to the decision. This approach clarifies how judges consider force majeure, pacta sunt servanda, and the good-faith standard. The study found that the force majeure argument was rejected because there was no direct causal link between the BPJS policy and the business losses. As a result, pacta sunt servanda still applies. The debtor's good faith was not enough to exempt them from murabahah payment obligations. Theoretically, the decision affirms that the limits of force majeure in murabahah contracts reinforce the principles of pacta sunt servanda and good faith. The practical implication is that the decision guides Islamic banking practitioners and customers. Proof of force majeure must include direct causality between regulatory uncertainty and business risk. Without this proof, the judge will apply the principles of pacta sunt servanda and good faith. This study contributes to the development of Islamic contract law by emphasizing the consistency of judicial interpretations of extraordinary circumstances. It highlights the importance of the burden of proof in establishing the existence of force majeure in Islamic nancing disputes. By strengthening legal certainty, this decision promotes responsible risk management and contractual compliance in murabahah transactions. Ultimately, the ruling supports a balance between justice and legal certainty in resolving disputes under Islamic economic law.

Abstract

Purpose: The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence has begun to reshape religious scholarship, including Hadith studies, by enabling large-scale authentication, textual analysis, and digital dissemination of Prophetic traditions. Despite these developments, the adoption of artificial intelligence in Hadith research raises persistent concerns regarding epistemic reliability, ethical integrity, and the preservation of scholarly authority, resulting in a fragmented and uneven body of literature. Methodology: To address this gap, this study conducts a systematic literature review to synthesise current research on the opportunities, applications, and ethical challenges of artificial intelligence in Hadith studies. Guided by the PRISMA protocol, relevant studies were identified through structured searches of Scopus, ProQuest, AskZad, and Google Scholar. After screening and eligibility assessment, 41 primary studies were included for qualitative synthesis. Results: The analysis yielded four main themes: AI for Hadith authentication and verification, AI-driven text processing, classification, and corpus development, AI applications for Hadith education, literacy, and information access, and ethical, epistemological, and normative challenges of AI in Hadith studies. Applications/Originality/Value: The findings show that artificial intelligence enhances efficiency, scalability, and accessibility across authentication, linguistic processing, and educational contexts, while simultaneously exposing risks related to fabrication, misinterpretation, bias, and authority displacement. This review concludes that artificial intelligence can meaningfully support Hadith scholarship only when integrated within robust ethical frameworks, sustained human oversight, and established principles of Islamic epistemology, ensuring that technological innovation reinforces rather than undermines the integrity of Prophetic knowledge.

Abstract

The utilization of digital media in language learning for children with special needs aged 4-5 years at KB Aisyiyah Pracimantoro. The research objective is to determine how digital media can enhance the language abilities of children with special needs and to identify the challenges educators face in its implementation. The research method uses a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with the Principal, educators, and parents, as well as 30 minutes of participatory observation in class using a structured observation guide that assessed seven ability indicators of children on a scale of 1-4. Data analysis techniques used the Miles and Huberman interactive model, which includes data reduction, data presentation, interpretation, and conclusion. Data validity was ensured through source triangulation and method triangulation. The research results show that digital media, particularly educational videos with songs and movements, as well as interactive educational applications, are effective in improving the language abilities of children with special needs by increasing focus, motivation, vocabulary acquisition, and articulation. Interview results confirm that children who previously had difficulty pronouncing simple words showed significant development after routinely using digital media. However, implementation faces challenges, including limited devices and internet connections, difficulty finding specific content, managing children’s behavior, and the need for continuous teacher training. The research concludes that digital media is a potential tool for language learning among children with special needs, but requires infrastructure support, relevant content development, and increased educator capacity for optimal use.
