SIGANA Banjir: Game Edukasi Kesiapsiagaan Bencana Banjir Untuk Anak Usia 5-6 Tahun

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pemahaman kesiapsiagaan menghadapi bencana banjir pada anak usia dini, karena pemahaman kesiapsiagaan bencana bagi anak usia dini di Indonesia masih sangat rendah. Kurangnya pemberian pengetahuan kesiapsiagaan bencana khususnya bencana banjir pada anak disebabkan oleh praktik pembelajaran yang kurang efektif, karena guru belum menggunakan media pembelajaran yang beragam. Maka penelitian ini merancang produk aplikasi game edukasi berbasis komputer yaitu media pembelajaran yang menampilkan simulasi kesiapsiagaan bencana banjir. Penelitian dilakukan untuk mendesain media pembelajaran untuk pemahaman kesiapsiagaan bencana banjir pada anak usia 5-6 tahun. Metode penelitian ini menggunakan penelitian dan pengembangan dengan desain model ADDIE (Analize, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluate). Teknik pengumpulan data berupa validasi ahli (Ahli PAUD, Media, Bahasa, dan Kesiapsiagaan Bencana) data uji coba lapangan. Penelitian dilakukan di TK Kelompok B wilayah Kabupaten Lebak. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa permainan edukasi SIGANA Banjir layak digunakan untuk memberikan pemahaman kesiapsiagaan bencana banjir pada anak. Materi pemahaman kesiapsiagaan bencana banjir pada game ini mencakup : pemahaman bahaya dan sistem peringatan dini; pemahaman mengambil tindakan untuk melindungi diri; pemahaman mengurangi dampak bencana

Pemanfaatan Game Edukatif dalam Pembelajaran Matematika : Bagaimana Persepsi Siswa?

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat persepsi siswa terhadap penggunaan game edukasi dalam pembelajaran matematika.

Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini merekomendasikan perlunya upaya dalam meningkatkan ketersediaan game edukasi yang sesuai agar manfaat penggunaan game edukasi dapat lebih optimal dalam pembelajaran matematika

Building resilience beyond the COVID-19 pandemic: can it work through creative play with digital puzzles?

The COVID-19 pandemic worldwide has had significant repercussions for early childhood education. In this article, we begin by discussing the impact of a world health pandemic on education and the challenges of conducting a literature review following the COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, we examine the challenges of conducting a literature review on building resilience in young children in the digital era. The four sections categorize the resilience literature into the following themes: (1) defining resilience in young children, (2) powerful play for resilience in young children beyond the COVID-19 pandemic, (3) creative play building resilience in young children, and (4) digital puzzles for resilience: the case of early childhood classrooms in Indonesia. Each of the four themes is presented with a narrative whose content is current, followed by a literary consensus. The article ends with changes to build resilience in young children using creative play through digital puzzles. Digital puzzles as media for creative play support young children in developing skills that will make them happier and more resilient in overcoming daily hardships. Young children can become individuals who successfully face daily hardships creatively to reconstruct themselves after experiencing bad conditions due to the COVID-19 pandemic

Using Communicative Approach in Teaching Speaking Competence of Young Learners through Home-based Learning

This study aims to probe into the use of communicative approach in teaching speaking competence of young learners through a Home-based Learning approach. To master a language, the learner should sharpen their speaking skills/competences. In Indonesia, English is taught as a foreign/second language to young learners. Developing speaking competence will teach young learners English beyond grammar and word function, so that they could freely express their opinions. Being able to express themselves, young learners will have good self-esteem which would, in turn, help them in learning new things and other languages. However, the COVID-19 pandemic urged teachers to alter their method of teaching speaking to young learners as they learn from home and meet their teachers online through a virtual meeting platform. This study found that the materials designed by the teacher do impact in stimulating young language learners to improve their communication skills in English. Keywords: communicative approach, speaking skill, teaching young learner

ASEAN 4 KIDS: AN INTERACTIVE APPLICATION FOR LEARNING ASEAN CULTURE

With three years to the implementation of ASEAN Community in 2015, knowledge about ASEAN is the basic fundamental building block to the success of the ASEAN Community. A research has revealed that currently there is still a significant knowledge gap about ASEAN among young generation. Therefore, this project aims to fulfill this gap by designing and developing an interactive application for learning ASEAN culture named “ASEAN 4 KIDS”. Objective of this project are to develop an interactive application that encourages young children especially primary school students to learn some basic knowledge about ASEAN and culture of each member countries. The project also aims to raise awareness and understanding of ASEAN, its people and cultures to the target users through ICT. Additionally, the objectives are to explore the use of game-based approach in promoting culture learning as well as to evaluate the effectiveness of the application in learning ASEAN culture. Currently in the market, there are limited numbers of culture teaching applications that integrate various aspects of culture. Furthermore, the products that actually focus on teaching ASEAN Culture are very scarce. Using Flash and Augmented Reality, the system exposes the young children to the technology while they learn from the animation lessons and play the interactive games which are the mechanism to teach about ASEAN and deliver the educational content. Besides, the proposed system, this project also involves the study of how culture is being taught in school and the study of young children nature. As a result, the lessons and games are age-appropriate and match the abilities of the children. As a consequence the system is not only creating a joyful learning for the children but also help create awareness and understanding about ASEAN among them. The prototype system was tested with 5 primary school children aged between nine to twelve years old under the instruction of the developer and parents. The result of the testing showed the excitement of the children towards the system which is a good sign for the implementation in the real learning environment later on

Socialization Skills and Cooperative Games During The Pandemic: An Experimental Study on Students Having Slow Development of Communication

Children are affected by the Covid-19 pandemic, which has lasted nearly three years. The pandemic condition, which requires everyone to stay at home and interact at home, has a negative impact on the development of children's social interactions, particularly their socialization skills. It was discovered that there was a delay in the development of children's socialization due to hampered social learning processes, lack of direct social interaction, lack of social stimulation, and so on, causing children to grow up as individuals who were shy, inferior, and lacked social confidence, necessitating an intensive effort to accelerate their socialization skills so that children's mental development is not hampered, and they can re-adapt to their peers. The experimental design used was a two-sample pre-test-post-test design, with all respondents divided into experimental and control groups. Purposive sampling was used in this study. A socialization skills questionnaire was used as the research instrument. Pearson's alpha was used for validity tests, and Cronbach's alpha was used for reliability tests. Multiple regression was used in hypothesis testing. The data analysis revealed that the difference between pre-test and post-test scores had a t-value of 5.079 and a probability value (sig. 2-tailed) of 0.000 (P0.01) . This finding indicates a difference in socialization skills between KE and KK
