Abstract

This study aims to examine the evolution of data collection techniques in educational management research through a systematic review of literature published over the past two decades. The study adopts a literature review design by analyzing scholarly articles, books, and research reports accessed through major academic databases such as Scopus, ERIC, and Google Scholar. The findings reveal a significant shift from traditional techniques such as interviews and manual observation to modern, technology-based approaches such as learning analytics, big data, and the use of social media as alternative data sources. Moreover, the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) is increasingly applied in educational management systems to support more accurate and responsive decision-making. The implications of this research suggest that educational practitioners and researchers must adopt more dynamic and context-aware data collection strategies to effectively address the complexities of today's educational systems. This study presents original value by chronologically mapping the trends in data collection techniques and highlighting the gap between conventional educational management practices and current technological advancements. Therefore, this review contributes significantly to the literature by providing a conceptual and methodological framework that can inform future research and policy development in educational management.

Abstract

Competence of early childhood education teachers will be able to enhance early childhood development according to their needs and basic principles. Children who develop well will become a superior generation in the future. This study explores research trends and patterns in early childhood education, focusing on the competencies that early childhood teachers must possess. A systematic literature review (SLR) was the methodology used. Data was collected from the Scopus database using keywords such as Early Childhood, Education, Teachers, Competence, and Assessment. Over a 50-year period from 1975 to 2025, 664 research articles were identified, with 460 meeting the analysis criteria. Of these, 15 articles were selected for detailed analysis based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The findings show a fluctuating trend in the number of articles published each year, reflecting the changing relevance and focus of teacher competencies in the early childhood education sector. The main topics of the SLR include children, early childhood teacher competencies, early childhood teacher assessment, and early childhood development. The data demonstrate the importance of preparing competent early childhood teachers before they begin teaching in schools. These competencies include leadership, professional, social, and problem-solving skills. Furthermore, various training programs can improve the quality of early childhood education (PAUD) teachers and keep up with evolving trends. This study provides a comprehensive overview of research trends in PAUD teacher competencies.

Abstract

This systematic literature review examines syntactic errors in simple spoken sentences produced by five-year-old kindergarten children. Following PRISMA 2020 guidelines, forty peer-reviewed studies were systematically selected and analyzed to identify dominant error types and underlying factors in first-language acquisition contexts. The findings reveal that omission, word order errors, subject–verb disagreement, and overgeneralization are the most frequently reported syntactic errors, reflecting ongoing grammatical development rather than language impairment. The review further identifies developmental stage, limited exposure to complex linguistic input, cognitive processing constraints, and classroom practices as key contributing factors. These findings highlight the importance of linguistically rich interaction and informed pedagogical strategies to support syntactic development in early childhood education settings.

Abstract

Early childhood Quran memorization has become a rapidly growing tradition in Islamic education in various countries. The talaqqi method as a face-to-face learning approach has been practiced since the time of the Prophet Muhammad, but specific adaptations for children aged 5-6 years have not been explored in depth. Children in the golden age phase have optimal memory capacity but limited attention spans, so the conventional talaqqi method requires modification in accordance with their cognitive development characteristics. The literature gap indicates the need for qualitative research on the pedagogical mechanisms of the talaqqi method adapted to the developmental characteristics of early childhood. This study explores the practice of the talaqqi method in developing the ability of 5-6-year-old children to memorize the Quran, focusing on the adaptation of instructional techniques, structured repetition strategies, and the role of parental involvement. A qualitative case study was conducted at Madrasah Manbaul Uloom Malaysia for four months (June-September 2025), involving 15 children aged 5-6 years, five tahfiz teachers, and ten parents through participant observation, in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, and document analysis. The adaptive talaqqi method optimizes memorization through three pedagogical mechanisms: teacher-student interaction creates accurate articulation modeling while building emotional closeness, segmentation of short verses with structured repetition according to children's working memory capacity, and teacher-parent collaboration creates consistency in the learning environment. Specific instructional techniques include flexible learning duration, the use of Hijaiyah flashcard visual media, a star reward system, and differentiated learning based on the child's individual learning speed. Adapting the talaqqi method based on the cognitive development characteristics of 5-6-year-old children effectively optimizes Al-Quran memorization skills through a developmentally appropriate practice approach. The study recommends implementing a maximum teacher-student ratio of 1:5, a tajwid training program for parents, a formative evaluation system based on differentiation, and a multi-site comparative study to identify variations in the contextual adaptation of the talaqqi method in different countries.

Abstract

Early Childhood Education (PAUD) plays a strategic role in shaping children’s early development, with parental involvement serving as a critical determinant of program effectiveness. This study examines the marketing strategies employed by TK Al Hikmah Muslimat NU Tuban to enhance parental participation in early childhood education. The findings indicate that clear market segmentation, positioning based on Islamic values, and consistent communication through digital platforms contribute positively to parental engagement in school activities. Despite these strengths, parental participation remains constrained by time limitations and persistent perceptions of parents as passive recipients rather than active educational partners. This study highlights the importance of developing flexible and interactive partnership models supported by digital communication to foster sustainable parental involvement. The findings offer practical insights for PAUD institutions seeking to strengthen parent–school partnerships through strategic marketing approaches.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the implementation of bead-stringing play activities as a solution to stimulate the fine motor skills of children aged 4–5 years at TK Al-Kautsar Bontang and to identify the teacher’s role in providing stimulation that enables children to gradually develop their fine motor abilities according to their individual capacities. The research employed a descriptive qualitative method with 10 Class A children and 1 teacher as the subjects. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. The bead-stringing activities were carried out through five stages: introduction to the activity, texture introduction, free bead-stringing, structured ABAB patterns, and structured AABB patterns. The results of the study show that providing different stimuli at each process effectively encouraged the development of eye–hand coordination, finger control, accuracy, concentration, and children’s independence. The activities, conducted regularly two to three times a week with teacher assistance, proved effective in stimulating the fine motor skills of children aged 4–5 years. Bead-stringing can be used by teachers as a gradual strategy to stimulate children’s fine motor development, especially for children who still need practice with focus and hand flexibility. The teacher plays an important role by providing demonstrations, guidance, and variations of materials, making the activity more engaging and enjoyable. The teacher’s sensitivity in observing each child’s abilities also enables the gradual adjustment of stimuli.

Abstract

This study aims to provide a conceptual analysis of the application of Total Physical Response Storytelling (TPRS) in early childhood English language learning by examining its theoretical foundations, pedagogical components, and potential effectiveness for children aged 3–6 years. TPRS integrates Krashen’s comprehensible input principle, Asher’s Total Physical Response (TPR), and Ray’s narrative-based interaction to create a natural, enjoyable, and meaningful learning experience. A review of Scopus-indexed literature indicates that existing research on TPR and storytelling remains fragmented and predominantly focuses on vocabulary development or school-aged learners. None of the reviewed studies investigate TPRS comprehensively within early childhood settings, particularly regarding its effects on listening comprehension, language retention, and early storytelling skills. The analysis highlights that TPRS has strong potential to enhance vocabulary mastery, increase learning engagement, and build children’s confidence in language use through integrated movement and narrative activities. These findings position TPRS as a promising and developmentally appropriate approach for early childhood English instruction. The study further recommends future empirical research to validate the effectiveness of TPRS across diverse linguistic outcomes and to establish its role as a holistic framework for early language acquisition.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the experience of children aged 4–5 years in developing problem-solving skills through the integration of coastal culture in early childhood education. The background of this research departs from the need to strengthen contextual learning that provides space for children to explore, think critically, and work together through real experiences that are close to their lives. The research method used is qualitative with a phenomenological approach. The subjects of the study included 12 children, a teacher, and three parents. Data were obtained through participatory observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation, then analyzed through bracketing stages, identification of important statements, grouping of themes, and preparation of textural and structural descriptions. The results of the study show that coastal culture provides a rich and meaningful context for children to recognize problems, analyze causes, and choose solution strategies. Children are able to identify problems in games such as simulating fish markets, loading and unloading boats, and pulling nets, as well as developing cognitive, social, and motor strategies. Coastal culture-based learning also improves cooperation, independence, and children's ability to try solutions independently before asking for help. This study concludes that coastal cultural integration is effective as a contextual learning model that supports early childhood problem-solving skills. The contribution of this research lies in the development of local culture-based learning alternatives that are relevant, meaningful, and can be applied in early childhood education practice.

Abstract

Islamic Religious Education (IRE) at the Early Childhood Education stage plays an important role in shaping children's religious values and behaviour. The main challenge faced by ECE teachers today is how to present IRE material effectively so that it is easily understood by students. This study aims to analyse the application of interactive learning in improving children's understanding of PAI material at RA Masjid Al-Azhar Permata Puri. The study uses a qualitative approach with a field study method. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis was carried out through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results of the study indicate that interactive learning is applied through group activities, practical activities, and the direct involvement of children in the learning process. The findings also indicate that this strategy is able to increase the enthusiasm, participation, and conceptual understanding of students towards PAI material. Thus, interactive learning is considered relevant and effective in supporting the success of PAI learning in early childhood.

Abstract

Social-emotional development is a core dimension of early childhood education because it shapes children’s ability to build relationships, manage emotions, and adapt to social environments. A growing body of research indicates that traditional games can foster these competencies through activities that require cooperation, interpersonal communication, and self-regulation. This article presents a systematic literature review to map and synthesize empirical evidence on the contribution of the traditional game engklek to young children’s social–emotional development. The literature search was conducted across Google Scholar, Garuda, DOAJ, ERIC, and institutional repositories, covering publications from 2015 to 2025. Study selection followed the stages of identification, screening, and eligibility assessment, resulting in 14 articles that met the inclusion criteria and were thematically analyzed. The synthesis indicates that engklek contributes to three main domains: (1) social skills (e.g., cooperation, rule-following, and communication), (2) emotion regulation (e.g., frustration control and persistence), and (3) prosocial behavior and peer interaction quality (e.g., empathy, sharing, and conflict resolution). These findings suggest that engklek functions not only as a cultural practice but also as a pedagogical medium that aligns with play-based learning grounded in local contexts. The review supports integrating traditional games into early childhood curricula and developing contextual, inclusive, and child-friendly instructional strategies.
