The samples were taken from 30 PAUD teachers who had been certified in Karangawen District, Demak Regency, with a systematic nonprobability sampling. The data analysis technique used a simple linear regression test with a hypothesis test using the t-test, the coefficient of determination (R-Square). The results of the reliability test were 0.745. The data analysis used was the normality test using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov method with a significance value of 0.200> 0.05. Based on the simple linear regression test, it shows a significance value of 0.000, which is smaller than the probability value of 0.05. Thus, it can be concluded that hypothesis Ha stating that there is an influence of teacher certification on the pedagogical competence of PAUD teachers is accepted, and hypothesis Ho is rejected. The results of the R Square value of 0.998 or 99.8%, show that teacher certification has a significant effect on the pedagogical competence of PAUD teachers

Abstract

 Every child born into a family has different genetic characteristics and is exposed to different social environments, including their birth order. Each child's attitude, personality, and behavior will be influenced by those factors. Within the family, the sense of responsibility of the eldest child, the middle child, and the youngest child will differ due to the differences they have as members of the social group. Therefore, it is necessary to examine this to find out the effect of birth order on children's sense of responsibility by taking samples from early childhood aged 5-6 years as the firstborn, the middle child, and the youngest child. This study used a quantitative-correlational method with questionnaires as data collection techniques. The results of this study obtained data and facts that the birth order process showed an influence in several aspects, such as children can respect time, obey the rules, return items according to their place, accept the risk of actions taken, protect their belongings, do not easily blame or accuse others, are willing to admit and apologize for mistakes made, and do activities before being directed or ordered. Birth order is proven to have a significant positive influence on children's sense of responsibility.

Abstract

One aspect of development that must be well-stimulated in early childhood is cognitive development. Cognitive development can be stimulated through children’s basic mathematical skills. These skills can be enhanced through the application of Kosurasi media. This study aims to determine the effect of applying Kosurasi media in improving basic mathematical skills in children aged 5-6 years at TK Dharma Wanita Bandung Wonosegoro. This study used a quantitative method with a one-group pretest-posttest research design. The population and sample consisted of 30 children aged 5-6 years at TK Dharma Wanita Bandung. Data collection was conducted through observation, interviews, and documentation. The collected data were analyzed using normality tests, homogeneity tests, paired sample t-test hypothesis testing, and finally, N-gain score tests with the help of the SPSS V.26 data processing application. The average pretest score was 76.10, while the average posttest score was 115.33. A paired sample t-test hypothesis test yielded a significance result of 0.000 < 0.05, indicating that H0 was rejected and Ha was accepted. This means there was a significant difference in the children’s basic mathematical skills before and after the intervention. Furthermore, the N-gain test produced a score of 57.76%, suggesting that the application of Kosurasi media has a moderately effective impact on improving the basic mathematical skills of children aged 5-6 years.
