Abstract

This study is based on the low level of creativity among early childhood children in expressing ideas and creating independently. This issue is evident when children appear confused and lack confidence when asked to create free-form works without examples from teachers. Based on data analysis from previous studies, the low level of creativity in children is caused by monotonous teaching methods and the use of less engaging media. Therefore, a learning medium capable of optimally stimulating children's creativity is needed, one of which is loose parts media. This study aims to develop early childhood creativity through the use of loose parts media by utilizing natural materials available in the surrounding environment for Group B students at RA Mambaul Ulum Jatirogo. The research adopts a qualitative approach with a descriptive qualitative design. It was conducted at RA Mambaul Ulum Jatirogo, with the research subjects being Group B students. Data collection methods used include interviews, observation, and documentation. The data analysis process includes data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results of the study are as follows: 1) The creativity development of RA Mambaul Ulum students increased by 70% compared to before using loose parts media. 2) The implementation of loose parts media was conducted from Monday to Thursday using materials provided by the teacher.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the effectiveness of scaffolding as a language learning technique for early childhood education. Using a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach, the research analyzes 40 related articles to identify patterns, strategies, and supporting factors in the implementation of scaffolding. The results reveal that scaffolding significantly supports early childhood language development, particularly in phonology, grammar, and vocabulary. Three main patterns in scaffolding implementation were identified: breaking complex tasks into manageable steps, using interactive dialogues to model correct language, and providing real-time corrective feedback. Approximately 85% of the analyzed studies reported significant improvements in children’s language abilities through this technique. Furthermore, scaffolding has been proven effective in enhancing early literacy skills, such as reading and constructing word structures. However, the study also highlights challenges, such as the lack of training for educators and limited supporting resources. These findings emphasize the importance of professional training, the use of educational technology, and parental involvement to maximize scaffolding effectiveness. Grounded in Vygotsky's socio-cultural theory, scaffolding serves as a temporary support framework that enables children to reach their Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD). This study contributes to the literature on early childhood education by providing practical guidance and strategic recommendations for educators to effectively implement scaffolding.
