Kesiapan sekolah pada anak usia dini merupakan salah satu faktor penting yang berperan dalam mendukung keberhasilan proses pembelajaran pada jenjang pendidikan selanjutnya. Salah satu unsur yang memengaruhi kesiapan sekolah anak adalah keterlibatan orang tua dalam memberikan stimulasi perkembangan, dukungan emosional, serta menciptakan suasana belajar yang kondusif di lingkungan rumah. Namun demikian, pada kenyataannya masih terdapat sebagian orang tua yang belum memiliki pemahaman yang optimal mengenai cara mendukung kesiapan sekolah anak usia 5–6 tahun.

2026-04-24T12:44:18+00:00

Early Childhood Education (PAUD) in kindergarten is the foundation for children's development, including creativity. Creativity can be fostered through the right environment and learning, but conventional teacher-centered methods often limit children's expression. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach to explore the application of traditional games in enhancing creativity in kindergarten children. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, then analyzed using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman. The results show that traditional games encourage children to be more active, confident, and creative, both cognitively, physically, and socio-emotionally. Children learn to express ideas, solve problems, imagine, and collaborate with friends. These findings confirm that traditional games are effective as a fun, contextual learning method, and are able to optimize children's creative potential, while also being an innovative alternative relevant to local culture

The Role of Islamic Religious Education Teachers in Shaping Students' Character

2026-05-13T08:26:46+00:00

This study aims to explain the function of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teachers in building student character in the digital era, as well as exploring strategies, obstacles, and the effectiveness of its implementation in schools. The method used is qualitative with a case study approach, which was conducted at SMP Negeri 2 Kotabumi. Data collection techniques include observation, in-depth interviews, and document collection. Data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model, which consists of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusions. The results of the study indicate that PAI teachers have an important function as moral educators, spiritual guides, and connectors of character values through an approach that is adapted to the context. In the digital era, PAI teachers adjust their teaching methods by using digital tools such as da'wah videos, online learning platforms, and social media as educational resources. This strategy has proven effective in attracting students' attention and at the same time instilling the values of honesty, responsibility, tolerance, and ethics in media. However, teachers also face challenges such as time constraints, inability to have digital literacy skills, and the negative impact of social media on student behavior. To overcome these obstacles, PAI teachers combine character education into the learning process, religious guidance, and online communication on an ongoing basis. The role of teachers will be maximized if supported by cooperation between schools, parents, and the community. This study provides a theoretical contribution to the development of a character education model based on Islamic values and in accordance with the challenges of the digital age. Practically, the findings of this study serve as a reference for strengthening digital teacher literacy, developing an adaptive curriculum, and involving parents in shaping students' character as a whole.

This article aims to determine how the application of group learning methods can increase the enthusiasm for learning in early childhood at Ra Al Islamiyah. The enthusiasm for learning is very important in the learning process because it can influence the activeness, attention, and involvement of children during learning activities. In this case, teachers and parents have a crucial role in fostering enthusiasm for learning in children from an early age. Therefore, learning methods are needed that are interesting and directly involve children, one of which is through group learning activities. To achieve this goal, the author conducted research at one of the early childhood education institutions, RA Al Islamiyah. This research was also supplemented by a literature review by studying various scientific sources such as books and journals related to early childhood learning. The results of the study at Ra Al Islamiyah showed that the group learning method can increase children's enthusiasm for learning. Children appear more active, more enthusiastic, and more interested in participating in learning activities when they study with their friends in small groups. In addition, group learning activities also help children learn to work together, communicate, and dare to express their opinions.
