Abstract

Early childhood education (PAUD) has a strategic role in forming the foundation of children's character from an early age. In this context, the professionalism of PAUD educators is the main factor that determines the quality of character learning. Professionalism includes pedagogical, personality, social, and professional competencies that synergistically support the process of internalizing character values ​​in children. This literature study aims to examine various research results and current theories that discuss the relationship between the professionalism of PAUD educators and the development of early childhood character. This study was conducted through literature analysis from relevant national and international journals over the past five years. The results of the study show that professional PAUD educators are able to create a conducive learning environment, apply a holistic learning approach, and be role models in behavior. In addition, educators' understanding of the psychological development of early childhood is very important in instilling values ​​such as honesty, responsibility, empathy, and discipline. This study recommends strengthening ongoing training for PAUD educators so that they are able to develop contextual and value-based character learning strategies. In conclusion, the professionalism of PAUD educators contributes significantly to building the foundation of early childhood character education optimally.

Abstract

The project-based learning model (PjBL) has become one of the relevant approaches in early childhood education because it provides space for exploration, direct experience, and active participation of children in the learning process. This study aims to theoretically examine how the application of PjBL can encourage the cognitive development of early childhood. Through the literature study method of various scientific sources published in the last five years (2020–2025), it was found that the application of PjBL consistently correlates with increased cognitive functions such as critical thinking skills, observation, classification, reflection, and early literacy. Project activities allow children to be involved in direct observation of objects, make predictions, organize categories, and convey ideas verbally and visually. In addition, PjBL also encourages children's independence in decision-making and the development of creativity in completing simple tasks independently. Simple projects such as environmental exploration, making creative products, and simulating social roles have been shown to stimulate children's logical and systematic thinking skills. The role of the teacher as a facilitator is crucial in designing projects that are appropriate to the child's developmental stage and interests. The conclusion of this study shows that PjBL is not only an effective method in strengthening cognitive aspects, but also provides an important foundation for children's readiness in facing learning at the elementary education level. This approach is also in line with the spirit of 21st century learning which emphasizes collaboration, creativity, and problem solving.

Abstract

Gender equality in Early Childhood Education (ECE) is a fundamental aspect of building an inclusive and just society from the earliest stages of life. This literature review aims to examine global practices and challenges related to gender equality in ECE, with a particular focus on how gender stereotypes are formed and reinforced in early learning environments. Using a systematic literature review (SLR) approach, this study analyzes 25 recent peer-reviewed articles and policy documents published between 2019 and 2024, sourced from reputable academic databases and institutional reports. The findings reveal that gender bias is often reproduced in teaching materials, classroom interactions, and role modeling, largely due to a lack of teacher awareness and insufficient gender-sensitive pedagogy. Moreover, the dominance of female educators and the underrepresentation of male teachers in ECE contribute to limited gender role diversity for children. Cultural and social norms, particularly in traditional societies, further hinder the promotion of gender equality in early education. In contrast, several countries, particularly in Scandinavia and Canada, have successfully implemented inclusive gender pedagogies supported by policy and teacher training. This study emphasizes the urgent need for integrating gender equality into ECE curricula, enhancing teacher competence, and developing national policies that support equitable and inclusive early learning. The implications highlight the importance of transforming early childhood settings into spaces that actively deconstruct gender stereotypes and promote fairness and diversity from the outset of a child's educational journey.

Abstract

Language development is one of the important aspects in the growth and development of early childhood, especially in the age range of 3-5 years which is a critical period in the formation of communication skills. Parents, as the first and main educators for children, have a strategic role in providing appropriate stimulation to support children's language development. This literature study aims to explore various scientific findings that discuss parental involvement in stimulating children's language through daily interactions, reading habits together, educational games, and the use of appropriate digital media. The method used in this study is a literature review from various relevant national and international journals in the period 2018 to 2024. The results of the study show that active parental involvement, either through two-way communication, play activities, or the habit of reading stories, greatly influences children's vocabulary, syntax, and speaking skills. On the other hand, lack of stimulation or passive communication patterns can significantly inhibit language development. Therefore, it is important for parents to get education about effective language stimulation strategies according to the child's developmental stage. This study recommends the importance of collaboration between parents, educators, and child health workers in creating a conducive linguistic environment for early childhood.

Abstract

This study aims to identify key challenges and formulate strategic solutions for implementing Early Childhood Education (ECE) policy in Tuban Regency, East Java. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis involving PAUD institutions, stakeholders, and local communities. The findings reveal several significant challenges, including inadequate infrastructure, low qualifications and competencies of educators, limited budget allocations, and low community awareness and participation. Discrepancies between national policies and regional readiness further hinder effective policy implementation. Nevertheless, initiatives such as teacher training, the development of Holistic Integrative PAUD, and institutional mentoring have shown promising potential. This study recommends strengthening cross-sectoral collaboration, providing continuous training programs, ensuring equitable funding, and conducting massive public awareness campaigns. The results underline the importance of adaptive and participatory approaches in the successful implementation of locally contextualized PAUD policies. These findings are expected to contribute to more effective and sustainable policy formulation for inclusive and quality early childhood education development in local regions.
