Optimizing Early Childhood Communication Skills Through Question Board Media
Abstract
Pengembangan keterampilan komunikasi sangat penting pada anak usia dini, karena keterampilan ini merupakan salah satu kompetensi utama di abad ke-21. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi optimalisasi keterampilan komunikasi pada anak usia 4-6 tahun di RA An-Nida melalui penggunaan media papan soal dalam proses pembelajaran. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain eksperimen dengan penilaian pre-test dan post-test. Sampel penelitian terdiri dari 14 anak usia 4-6 tahun. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan rata-rata skor keterampilan komunikasi anak antara pre-test dan post-test, dengan peningkatan sebesar 14,2 poin dan nilai t sebesar 30,4 pada taraf signifikansi 0,00. Penelitian ini merekomendasikan agar optimalisasi keterampilan komunikasi anak usia dini melalui media pembelajaran sebaiknya dibahas pada penelitian selanjutnya.
