Abstract/Notes: Studi ini merupakan Diskursus mengenai Prinsip, Pendekatan Dan Metode-metode Pembelajaran Yang Relevan Kepada Anak Usia Dini. Adapun kategori anak usia dini adalah masa usia emas (golden age) untuk menanamkan nilai-nilai rohani dan pembentukan karakter serta memperkenalkan mereka dengan pengetahuan dan keterampilan dengan sederhana. Studi ini dilakukan dengan metode deskriptif melalui penelitian literatur yang berkaitan dengan pendidikan anak usia dini dengan menelaah prinsip, pendekatan proses pembelajaran dan metode-metode pembelajaran terhadap anak usia dini. Hasil studi memperlihatkan adanya dua pendekatan proses pembelajaran yakni dari golongan interaksionisme dan kategorial yang masing-masing berorientasi kepada anak sebagai subyek pendidikan serta bermacam-macam metode pembelajaran yang menekankan peran anak untuk memahami, menangkap dan mengetahui apa yang hendak diajarkan oleh guru kepada mereka. Karena itu, satuan pendidikan PAUD dapat menggunakan integrasi atau kombinasi antara pendekatan dari golongan interaksionisme dan kategorial. Demikian pula, satuan PAUD dapat menggunakan beragam metode yang relevan dengan memberikan penekanan bahwa anak-anak usia dini sebagai subyek pendidikan yang perlu diberikan rangsangan untuk menolong mereka bertumbuh dengan utuh (holistic/comprehensive approach) baik rohani, karakter, pengetahuan dan keterampilan.

Abstract/Notes: This article aims to conduct a comparative analysis between early childhood traditional education and alternatives in primary education, such as the Maria Montessori method and Reggio Emilia approach. This article will be relevant and advisable for educators and parents to understand the key differences between each approach. There is no doubt that early childhood education plays an essential role in educating young minds. The question is how to find the best way to educate young children, what to choose: teacher-centered or child-centered models of teaching? Furthermore, from a parental view, the question is not only which method works the best, but also which one is more beneficial for “My Child”. Parents have difficulty choosing the right teaching option specifically for their children, which would help them become successful members of modern society in the future. Taking into consideration our teaching experience of more than twenty-five years, along with researching many pedagogical and educational books and articles, we came to an interesting conclusion about both – traditional and alternatives in teaching young minds. Alongside, we discovered that no matter how beneficial is the true idea of any teaching method, unfortunately, not every school is a true barrier to the philosophy, theory, and teaching approach behind the school's name brand.

Abstract/Notes: Artikel ini merupakan Studi Mengenai Implementasi Pendekatan Proses Pembelajaran dan Metode-metode Pembelajaran Pendidikan Kristen Anak Usia Dini.  Di dalamnya, peneliti mengungkapkan mengenai pentingnya pelayanan Pendidikan Kristen kepada anak-anak usia dini sebagaimana kepada orang-orang dewasa.  Oleh karena Alkitab menyatakan bahwa anak-anak adalah subyek pelayanan dan masa yang menentukan dalam pengenalan akan Tuhan dan pertumbuhan iman menuju masa dewasa. Dalam dunia pendidikan, kategori anak usia dini adalah masa usia emas (golden age) untuk menanamkan nilai-nilai rohani dan pembentukan karakter serta memperkenalkan mereka dengan pengetahuan dan keterampilan dengan sederhana. Studi ini diawali dengan paparan sekilas dalam bagian pendahuluan mengenai hasil kajian Alkitab (hermeneutika Alkitab) mengenai pendidikan anak usia dini, baik dari Perjanjian Lama maupun Perjanjian Baru.  Kemudian dilanjutkan dengan paparan sekilas dalam pendahuluan juga mengenai hasil kajian teoritis yang menelaah dengan fokus masalah penelitian dari tesis ini yakni pendekatan proses pembelajaran dan metode-metode pembelajaran terhadap anak usia dini.  Adapun penelitian empiris dalam penelitian ini dilakukan pada satuan pendidikan KBTRI dan TK Ceria Terpadu PESAT Wamena untuk memperoleh gambaran mengenai relevansi pendekatan proses pembelajaran dan metode-metode pembelajaran dengan mengumpulkan data-data yang diperoleh melalui pengamatan dan wawancara terhadap dinamika pembelajaran di kelas antara guru dan murid. Adapun penelitian dalam artikel ini dilakukan dengan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi kasus yang dibangun dari penelitian literatur, dalam hal ini literatur mengenai kajian Alkitab dan kajian teoritis yang berkaitan dengan pendidikan Kristen anak usia dini serta penelitian empiris yaitu pengamatan lapangan yang dilakukan dengan metode pengamatan partisipan dan wawancara yang dilaksanakan tahun 2016 pada lokus penelitian. Hasil studi memperlihatkan bahwa pendekatan proses pembelajaran maupun metode-metode pembelajaran PAK yang relevan terhadap anak usia dini tidak sekedar mengikuti teori-teori pembelajaran sekuler yang cenderung menekankan pengetahuan dan ketrampilan seorang guru/pendidik, kurikulum dan bahan pelajaran atau sarana yang canggih serta fasilitas belajar yang memadai melainkan penting sekali adanya dasar-dasar Firman Tuhan (Alkitab) yang menjadi pedoman utama.  Hasil studi ini juga memperlihatkan adanya dua pendekatan proses pembelajaran yakni dari golongan interaksionisme dan kategorial yang masing-masing berorientasi kepada anak sebagai subyek pendidikan serta bermacam-macam metode  pembelajaran yang menekankan peran anak untuk memahami, menangkap dan mengetahui apa yang hendak diajarkan oleh guru terhadap mereka.  Hal ini yang nampak dan efektif dalam penelitian empiris terhadap KBTRI dan TK Ceria Terpadu Wamena, Papua, setidaknya dalam kurun waktu tahun 2016.

Abstract/Notes: The aim of this study was to develop and field test an instrument that provides an efficient and scholarly tool for exploring curricular beliefs of preservice teachers in the area of early childhood education. The Early Childhood Curricular Beliefs Inventory (ECCBI) was developed through procedures that evaluated the content validity of identified statements, explored the criterion and construct validity, and assessed the internal reliability of the instrument. Through a literature review, four predominant approaches to early childhood education (Developmental Interaction, Cognitive Developmental, Behavioral, and Sensory Cognitive) and four associated models of implementation were identified (Developmental Interaction, HighScope, Direct Instruction, and Montessori). Six areas, in which each of the above differed, were identified: the view of the child, role of the teacher, resources utilized, curricular emphasis, assessment methodology, and characteristics of the learning environment.

Through a literature review, four predominant approaches to early childhood education (Developmental Interaction, Cognitive Developmental, Behavioral, and Sensory Cognitive) and four associated models of implementation were identified (Developmental Interaction, HighScope, Direct Instruction, and Montessori). Six areas, in which each of the above differed, were identified: the view of the child, role of the teacher, resources utilized, curricular emphasis, assessment methodology, and characteristics of the learning environment. A panel of experts classified and sorted a total of 182 statements, and 72 items were subsequently organized into an instrument consisting of four subtests corresponding to the identified curricular models. Scoring of the instrument included recording Likert-scale responses for each statement to a score key divided into four sections, or subtests, representing each curricular model. Scores for each section were added and compared. The subtest with the lowest score was deemed most representative of a respondent's curricular beliefs. Data gathered through field testing of the instrument with practitioners were used to explore further content validity through a factor analysis, criterion validity, and construct validity. Results of a second field test of preservice teachers and the results of the first field test (practitioners) were used to assess internal consistency reliability. Analyses appeared to support content, criterion, and construct validity as well as reliability of the 72-item ECCBI. In an effort to reduce the length of the instrument and to make it less cumbersome, results of the factor analysis were used to create a 24-item shortened version of the ECCBI. Six items representing each of the four subtests having the strongest factor loadings were identified as appropriate statements and were then organized into an alternative instrument.
