Abstract

Teacher and parent involvement with children has been associated with a number of adaptive characteristics in preschool children, and the relationship between family and teacher is an important contributor to school readiness. This study reports a participatory, teacher-parent involvement case study approach designed to facilitate school readiness among disadvantaged preschool children, with a particular focus on social-emotional stimulation. The study aimed to extend the study of social-emotional development from ecological systems theory to the context of children's school readiness, stimulating (1) familiarity with the school environment, (2) adjustment, (3) displaying habits of independence and (4) helping behavior, and (5) tolerance. The study, conducted over a 12-month period, observed specific interpersonal competencies (i.e., attachment, initiative, and anxiety/withdrawal), in contrast, differences in the extent to which positive action was given to children experiencing behavioral problems (i.e., anger/aggression, self-control, or conduct problems) as a function of being prepared to be given action. With participants of the principal, group B teachers, who were willing to 44 children voluntarily participate in this study, Data for this study included field notes, non-participant and participant observations, curriculum documentation, focus group and individual interviews, reflective journals/diaries, and photovoice. Data were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively using thematic analysis and narrative inquiry-based analysis. The contribution of this study can be used as input for policy makers, parents, PAUD teachers, and the community in Indonesia. The implications of this intervention appear to be very effective in building social-emotional competencies beyond the impacts experienced as a function of participation in the early school entry program. Limitations and implications for research can be reviewed for the future.

Abstract

This investigate employments a subjective approach to look at the part of parental communication in upgrading children's dialect insights through the Qur'an and Hadith in PIAUD Labura . Parents play a crucial role in shaping this intelligence, so effective strategies are needed to overcome challenges. One of the key steps is to improve religious understanding by attending Quranic study classes, participating in religious discussions, or reading Islamic books. Establishing a consistent learning routine at home is also essential, such as setting aside time each day to read, memorize, and discuss the Qur'an and Hadith with children. Additionally, creative methods like storytelling about the prophets or using Islamic educational apps can make learning more engaging and enjoyable for children. Good communication between parents and teachers is important to ensure continuity between home and school education. Parents should also actively participate in school meetings and events to support their child’s development more effectively. Moreover, encouraging children to ask questions, engage in discussions, and build a warm emotional connection with them strengthens their involvement in the learning process. Educational technology can be used as a tool to support this learning, and forming small study groups with peers can further encourage interaction and discussion. These strategies enable parents to overcome obstacles and maximize their role in enhancing children's language intelligence through the Qur'an and Hadith.

Abstract

Pengasuhan anak di era modern menghadapi tantangan besar akibat perubahan sosial dan budaya. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengkaji keberlanjutan budaya pengasuhan anak di Madura, khususnya di TK ABA Socah, Bangkalan. Metode penelitian menggunakan jenis penelitian kualitatif berbasis data lapangan dengan melibatkan guru di TK ABA Socah, Bangkalan sebagai subjek penelitian. Data dikumpulkan melalui wawancara mendalam dan dokumentasi, kemudian dianalisis menggunakan model Miles dan Huberman, meliputi: reduksi data, penyajian data dan penarikan kesimpulan. Uji keabsahan data penelitian menggunakan triangulasi sumber dan triangulasi teknik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pola pengasuhan di Madura mengalami transformasi dari pendekatan yang keras dan tegas menuju metode yang lebih humanis dan dialogis. Namun, nilai-nilai seperti kedisiplinan, penghormatan kepada orang tua, dan penekanan pada aspek religius tetap dipertahankan. Perubahan ini terjadi seiring meningkatnya kesadaran akan hak-hak anak serta dampak negatif dari pola asuh otoriter terhadap perkembangan psikologis mereka. Upaya mempertahankan budaya pengasuhan Madura dilakukan melalui penanaman nilai-nilai spiritual sejak dini, pengenalan mata pencaharian tradisional, dan penggunaan bahasa Madura. Faktor utama yang mendukung keberlanjutan pola asuh ini meliputi peran orang tua, lingkungan sosial, serta tenaga pendidik yang berkomitmen dalam menjaga nilai-nilai lokal. Temuan penelitian ini dapat menjadi dasar dalam pengembangan kurikulum pendidikan anak usia dini yang mengintegrasikan unsur budaya lokal dengan pendekatan pengasuhan yang lebih adaptif. Penelitian lebih lanjut direkomendasikan untuk membandingkan praktik etnoparenting Madura dengan budaya lain guna memahami pola pengasuhan yang berkembang di era modern.
