Abstract

Parents have an essential role in caring for, educating, and meeting the needs of a child, especially in the aspect of growth and development. How parents educate is very important for the growth and development of early childhood. Education and upbringing at home must be harmonized with education at school so that children grow up to be intelligent, independent, and have character, growing into strong and rugged individuals. This research was motivated by a need for parental awareness of children's learning activities at school, inappropriate parenting patterns, and the importance of children's education. This research aims to determine children's development as a communication tool and the model for implementing learning programs in collaboration with parents in early childhood education, especially in Blora Regency. This research was conducted using a qualitative approach obtained through interviews, documentation data, and observation data regarding the implementation of home parenting programs or activities. This research shows that home parenting activities can be carried out through reporting on children's learning progress at school, knowledge of early detection of growth and development, parents' skills in creating work, and involvement of parents as resource persons. Parenting methods are usually carried out at school and sometimes only once a semester; for home parenting, this is done once a month. Implementing home parenting activities can make it easier for parents to provide parenting lessons and learn more about their children's activities.

Abstract

This paper exhibits new empirical evidence of women’s empowerment regarding child education. It examines the impacts of women's empowerment in social and psychological child education, focusing specifically on motherhood. It also criticizes the fragile bonding between mothers and children in respect of women’s empowerment. The researchers use descriptive research design and qualitative methods where they take interviews to get the expected output of the research from the selected population. The findings of this study present the handicaps of mothers that are engaged in jobs in terms of parenting. Most of the mothers opined that employed mothers can earn money which gives them a positive vibe but they fail to manage proper nourishment for their children to educate them properly. So their children face immense difficulties from social and psychological perspectives while unemployed mothers can manage sufficient time to nurture their children. Despite having some visible benefits of women’s empowerment the researchers mainly focus on the mental gap between children and employed mothers and the potential negative outcome of a mother-child mental gap from sociological and psychological perspectives.

Abstract

Children's ability to understand reading information still needs to be guided and directed. Children's ability to think, increase their vocabulary, and develop a literacy culture still needs to improve in optimizing children's brain performance. This study aimed to explore the role of literacy in increasing early childhood interest in reading. This study uses a qualitative methodology with data collection methods using observation and interviews. The subjects in this study were five students' parents as the primary informants who were randomly selected. The data analysis technique uses the Miles and Huberman approach, and the validity of the data uses source triangulation. The findings show that literacy skills are very close to children's daily lives and can be built from infancy. They start when the child can recognize pictures, writing, and numbers to assemble letters into words. Children's reading ability can be influenced by the surrounding environment, namely the family, both parents and teachers. The role of parents can be reading storybooks to children, singing, and reciting nursery rhymes, which is a valuable way of developing literacy in early childhood. So far, learning to read in early childhood is limited to using reading books to provide letter recognition opportunities. Here, the role of literacy through reading books will give a meaningful impression to children learning to read that many people have never known so that it becomes a new thing. The advantage of the results of this study is that the child's reading level has more insight to increase knowledge and a way of thinking to apply much vocabulary.

Abstract

Guided by Bakhtin's theory of dialogism, we understand that children's identities emerge from an open-ended process in which they articulate external resources and integrate them into their ideas to author themselves. This qualitative study draws on Bakhtin's theory of dialogism and a semiotic lens of multimodality to discuss how Linh, a Vietnamese four-year-and-half girl, authored herself in her multimodal stories across home and preschool. Linh's stories were gathered through close observation and were analyzed in connection with her parents’ and teachers’ narratives. Two narrative chains of her stories were chosen to describe how the child articulated adults’ utterances and cultural resources via her multimodal language to express her emergent identities. Findings initiate early childhood education (ECE) teachers and researchers to see children’s stories and identities in ongoingness and attend to the fluidity within children’s ECE settings, homes, and cultures.
