Perancangan Interactive Puppets Edukasi Diskriminasi pada Anak 10-12 Tahun

Abstract

Discrimination is a problem that is still often found in society, especially among children. Children still cannot distinguish between right and wrong treatment regarding the actions and words they do and say. This design was created to educate children through interactive learning media so they do not behave discriminatorily. This design uses several research methods, namely existing studies, literature studies, observation, in-depth interviews, and quantitative data collection in the form of questionnaires. The data will be processed at the experimental study stage, pre-test, and user testing stages. This method was carried out to obtain child behaviour, child psychology, and media data, which became a reference in this design. From the results of research and interviews that have been conducted, the output chosen as the primary media is a contemporary puppet. This media is designed to make learning more enjoyable. Children will be invited to participate in the stories being told and be able to interact freely with the stories as well as supporting media in the form of interactive guidebooks as references and instructions from the leading media. Through this media, it is hoped that it can educate children to respect and love themselves and others, respect differences, and prevent them from discriminating against others.
