Abstract

Early Childhood Educators and Teachers phenomena in Indonesia today can be said there has been no significant improvement of the quality aspect to profesian and mental readiness in carrying out the functions and duties of the principal. Regulation to improve the quality of the profession with the demands of strata S1 for early childhood educators and teachers not yet fully implemented. There are still many educators and early childhood teachers who have not reached the strata S1 moreover, educators and early childhood teachers similar (non-formal), where for educators and early childhood teachers (non-formal) is still widely managed by the PKK that basic education is still very heterogeneous. This can be confirmed by the findings of the study nearly 50% of educators and teachers have a background in high school education up to S1, even for similar early childhood educators and teachers there who have a background in primary education 6%, secondary 11%. While educators and early childhood teachers who have the educational background that does not comply with the demands of the profession at 38.6%. The above conditions are caused because of the jobs that are considered the easiest and many educators and teachers are becoming even more into early childhood teachers. Ordinary people think so educators and early childhood teachers are very easy it is expressed by 39% of respondents number, origin have a bit of a whim, can sing, clap, invited to play children and nurture and soothe the child when the petulant. Society in general has not been widely realized that early childhood is a very fundamental stage in order to form and mature children. If at this stage the process of formation and maturation of children is not optimal possibility at a later stage the child was not mature so that the process of obtaining the learning experience will be obstacles. Learning outcomes according to standards development as expected the government not be thought of educators and teachers (66.3%). What is certain early childhood educators and teachers in the field are able to make smart kid writing, numeracy and literacy needed for the provision of enrollment in primary school (49%). People still think of early childhood is not so important that the focus on learning experience is not too optimal, early childhood learning course played only later when the child in primary school. Not to mention the cultural factors that shape the mental profession of early childhood educators and teachers are still considered weak. Mental "nrimo" accepted all the conditions of educators and teachers without any action to change the condition becomes more advanced. That ultimately harmed educators and early childhood teachers and positioned in a weak state. For example there are many educators and early childhood teachers who received honorariums range 300-700 thousand rupiah. This condition they receive as a matter of course and with the pretext for seeking experience as well as a springboard to get the opportunity and the honor of being better but all this is not followed by action to up grade themselves. Back here that so our thinking together how and to what extent the role of government, association and organization for institutions as well as educators and early childhood teachers. What action can be given as a responsibility to alleviate professionalism of educators and early childhood teachers in Indonesia. It is a reality that we also must be able to change the paradigm that exists today.

The research aims to 1) describe deaf children language development, 2) explain the application of deaf children language ability development in TLO (Taman Latihan dan Observasi) class in Semarang State Special School, 3) explain push-pull factors of the application of deaf children language ability development in TLO (Taman Latihan dan Observasi) class in Semarang State Special School. The research employed a qualitative descriptive method to understand the phenomenon happened by the research subjects, namely the language they possess, and push-pull factors of deaf children language ability. The subjects of the research are deaf students at the age of 3-5 in the TLO class of Semarang State Special School. The data of the research were collected by observation, interview, and documentation. They were analyzed by data reduction, data presentation, verification, and conclusion. The results show that most of all deaf children in TLO class were cried at post delivery as normal do. The fact that they have no stimulation response is a symptom their parents observe. Therefore, the push-pull factor here is the active role of the parents. Hence, there are three conclusions according to the research, namely the cry of deaf children at post delivery as normal do, heart to heart approach done by teachers and the active role of the parents in deaf language development. It is suggested that the teachers are expected to be more creative to conduct teaching activity.

Abstract

The teaching of simple musical production is one of common practice in Indonesian early childhood education. This however is accompanied by the fact that most Indonesian early childhood centers has no ability to provide musical instrument to supports their children’s learning.  Considering  that  exposure  to  music  is essentially importance  to  encourage children’s sense of aesthetics the Semarang University’s Department of EarlyChildhood Education initiated a short course on the teaching of music to young children for the teachers of disadvantaged centers. Unlike typical course on music, in this short course plastic and metal wastes were used to substitute musical instruments. The wastes were those, which can produce the sound of percussions, such as used water gallons, jerrycans, and metal biscuit cans. Percussions are chosen considering the fact that the teaching of music in Indonesia is combined with fine motor development stimulation. In addition, percussion is much simpler for children to play compared to others. At the end of the short course, the department has learnt that not only the program has given an alternative for the teachers of how to teach music to their children, but also has giventhem much confidence to do that. On the other hand, even though the use of plastic and metal wastes were also an emergency exit strategy, somehow the teachers have learnt to not depend on the “real”, mostly expensive musical instruments amidst the lack of financial support. This has also allowed teacher to not ask for more money from theparents.
