Abstract

The purpose of this study was to analyze the impact of parental involvement on early childhood development through a case study on a group of children in one of the early childhood education institutions. This study uses a qualitative approach with a case study method, where data is obtained through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The results showed that active involvement of parents, both in educational, emotional, and social aspects, has a significant influence on cognitive development, language, motor, and character of children. Factors such as frequency of interaction, quality of communication, and emotional support have been shown to contribute positively in shaping children's behavior and abilities. These findings confirm the importance of collaboration between parents and educators in creating an environment that supports optimal child development.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of inquiry-based learning in enhancing critical thinking skills among students. Inquiry-based learning, as an instructional approach, encourages learners to actively explore problems, raise questions, and construct knowledge through investigation and reflection. This research employs a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design, involving a control group and an experimental group that implemented inquiry-based learning strategies. Data were collected using critical thinking skill tests and analyzed through statistical techniques to determine significant differences between groups. The findings indicate that students who engaged in inquiry-based learning demonstrated higher levels of critical thinking, particularly in areas of analysis, evaluation, and problem-solving, compared to those taught with conventional methods. These results suggest that inquiry-based learning can be an effective pedagogical strategy to foster critical thinking skills, making it highly relevant for educational practices in the 21st century.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to describe and analyze the Neres tradition as part of a series of Seren Taun ceremonies in Kasepuhan Citorek, an Indigenous community of Banten Kidul located in the Mount Halimun Salak National Park (TNGHS). This tradition serves as a ritual of self-purification before the implementation of Seren Taun as well as believed to be able to resist reinforcements, prevent pagebluk, and maintain the fertility of agricultural products. The research uses qualitative approach with post-positivistic paradigm and ethnographic method of communication. Data were collected through observation, interviews, documentation, and triangulation. The results showed that the Neres tradition has more meaning than just the practice of physical hygiene, but is full of symbols that reflect the values of prosperity, chastity and attachment to ancestors. In-depth analysis shows that cleaned household appliances - such as hihid, seeng, Dipper, pangarih, dulang, Basom, and boboko—are not only seen as utilitarian objects, but also symbols of well-being and the continuity of domestic life. This cleansing procession affirms the role of women as Guardians of domestic harmony as well as liaisons between Indigenous values that are passed down through generations. In addition, the use of natural elements such as palias grass, ash from upstream rice, and mulang water strengthens the spiritual dimension that unites humans with the surrounding nature. Thus, the Neres tradition can be understood as a communication ritual that contains symbolic messages, affirms the central role of women in the preservation of culture, and represents the collective identity of the Kasepuhan Citorek community that persists in the midst of changing times.

Abstract

Purpose - This study aims to identify effective strategies for implementing inclusive education based on socio-community participation in Frontier, Outermost, and Disadvantaged (3T) regions of Indonesia. Design/Methodology/Approach - Using a qualitative descriptive design with a case study approach, data were collected through participatory observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation involving teachers, students, school principals, and parents at SDN 05 Saribakti, SMP IT Darul Hikam, and MA Al-Bayyinah, Peundeuy District, Garut Regency. The data were analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s triangulation model. Findings - The findings reveal that inclusive education in 3T areas can be effectively implemented through collaboration between schools, communities, and local governments by emphasizing local wisdom, collective solidarity, and contextual learning. Social strategies such as gotong royong (mutual cooperation), community mentoring, and faith-based engagement strengthen educational inclusivity and student participation. The study also identifies key challenges, including limited infrastructure, conservative community attitudes, and disparities in teacher quality. Originality/Value - The originality of this study lies in integrating Durkheim’s theory of social solidarity with the Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) approach to develop a culturally adaptive model of inclusive education. This integration not only enhances educational access but also promotes social empowerment and sustainable community development in marginalized regions.

Abstract

Purpose – This study aims to explore the role of traditional games, specifically Jajangkungan, in fostering independence and self-confidence among early childhood learners amid the decline of traditional play due to modernization and digital dominance. Design/Methodology/Approach – Employing a qualitative descriptive method with a case study design, this research was conducted at Kober Karima Early Childhood Center. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with children, parents, and educators, supported by participatory observation and documentation. The data were analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s model of data reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing. Findings – The findings reveal that Jajangkungan serves as an effective educational medium that integrates physical, psychological, and social development. Physically, it enhances motor coordination, balance, and body control. Psychosocially, the repetitive process of falling, standing, and mastering the game cultivates perseverance, independence, and confidence. Both educators and parents acknowledge its pedagogical value: teachers view it as a character-building tool, while parents regard it as a complementary means of holistic development. Originality/Value – The originality of this study lies in highlighting Jajangkungan as a culturally grounded learning model that harmonizes traditional values with modern educational objectives. By reviving traditional play as an alternative medium for early childhood education, this research offers a sustainable approach to character education that balances physical vitality, emotional resilience, and social awareness in the digital era.
