PENGEMBANGAN MEDIA DIGITAL “UNO CERDAS TEKA-TEKI” SEBAGAI INOVASI PEMBELAJARAN BERBASIS INTERACTIVE FLAT PANEL (IFP) UNTUK MENINGKATKAN KEMAMPUAN BAHASA ANAK USIA 5-6 TAHUN

Abstract

This study aimed to design and develop  Interactive Flat Panel (IFP)-based digital media as a learning innovation to improve the language ability of children aged 5-6 years. This research used the Research and Development (R&D) method with the ADDIE development model, which includes Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. The research subjects were teachers and children aged 5-6 years at TK Raihan Islamic School. The analysis stage included the analysis of learner needs, curriculum, media, and materials. The design stage produced the digital media design based on the analysis results. The development stage involved validation by media and material experts. The validation results showed 84.44% from the media expert and 95.55% from the material expert, both in the “Very Feasible” category. The implementation stage of the digital media “Uno Cerdas Teka-Teki” showed positive responses from children and teachers in small-group and large-group trials. The small-group trial reached 98.5%, while the large-group pre-test and post-test reached 50.5% and 95%. These results indicate that the IFP-based digital media improved children’s language development very well. The evaluation stage showed that the media was very feasible, practical, effective, and applicable for improving the language ability of children aged 5-6 years.
