PEMBELAJARAN SIKAP KEAKRABAN DALAM MENGATASI PERILAKU BULLYING DI MADRASAH IBTIDAIYAH NEGERI KOTA BIMA

Bullying behavior that occurs can be overcome by instilling an attitude of mutual acceptance, respect and establishing friendly relationships. This attitude is the most important attitude to be practiced in today's life, to create a peaceful life among others and a peaceful environment, both in the Madrasah environment as an educational platform for generations and in the social environment in general, it is necessary to instill the value of togetherness from an early age to establish friendly relationships, if This relationship can be cultivated well, then good developments in the future will follow and it will be easy to develop. Friendly learning carried out by MIN Bima City to overcome bullying behavior through several methods, namely as follows: (a) Learning that instills understanding, namely teaching students about the benefits and importance of a friendly attitude and the negative impacts of bullying behavior. (b) learning by example, that is, apart from instilling understanding and knowledge, it is very necessary to follow this by providing good examples and role models to students. (c) learning and teaching to instill the habit of establishing close relationships so that it becomes a habit that is ingrained in students to avoid bullying behavior. (d) real action learning, namely after teaching knowledge and understanding and giving examples, it is necessary to pay attention that good attitudes must be implemented in everyday life. (e) learning to give advice as a driver of children's awareness to understand the nature and benefits of friendly attitudes and the bad behavior of bullying that must be avoided. (f) learning that provides sanctions to strengthen students' attitudes towards the meaning of kindness. (g) civilizing learning, that is, after being taught a good attitude, it will be applied repeatedly with istioqomah.

Is it all due to peers? The influence of peers on children's snack purchase decisions

The objective of this study is to examine whether the presence of peers has an impact on children's snack purchasing decisions. In particular, the research analyzes whether the company of a classmate or friend influences children's brand awareness and price perception, and how these factors affect their snack purchases. An incentive-based discrete choice experiment was conducted with snacks varying in price, brand, and healthiness, using the presence or absence of peers as a between-subject treatment. The data was analyzed using mixed logit models and a multinomial logit model. A total of 128 primary school children aged 8 to 10 years were included in the final data analysis. The findings show that the presence of peers strongly influences children's snack purchase decisions, particularly with respect to product type and price. The results highlight that children tend to conform to the group's decision, highlighting that social influence plays a crucial role in shaping children's decision-making processes. This study is the first to investigate the influence of peers on children's actual purchase decisions, thereby extending previous knowledge of the impact of peers on primary school children to the market domain.

Effects of disaster education on children's risk perception and preparedness: A quasi‐experimental longitudinal study

AbstractThe aim of this study was to examine the effects of a disaster education intervention on children's risk perception and preparedness. It also sought to advance longitudinal studies, during an 18‐month time period, of risk perception and preparedness by using a quasi‐experimental methodology in child‐centred disaster research. This study used a quasi‐experimental longitudinal research design to measure the effects of disaster education on children. These effects were examined on children's risk perception and preparedness in the Van and Kocaeli provinces of Türkiye during the 18‐month period, with a sample of 720 school children. Experimental and control groups were randomly allocated, controlling for age, school grade and school enrolment. The disaster education intervention was designed to improve the children's awareness of natural hazards and their knowledge of disaster risk reduction using discussion, visual materials and interactive teaching of emergency management. The results indicate that the disaster education intervention had a positive effect on children's risk perception and perceived importance of preparedness in both study locations. It also helped children to understand the risks and hazards in their living environments. More importantly, this study showed that disaster education enhanced the protective measures taken by children for disasters. This is the first study using the quasi‐experimental longitudinal research design to measure the effects of disaster education on children's risk perception and the importance of preparedness. The findings are of relevance for organisations such as government departments and non‐government organisations when designing or improving disaster education programmes.

The effects of multilingual pedagogies on language awareness: A longitudinal analysis of students’ language portraits

The purpose of this study is to investigate the use of language portraits as a tool for longitudinally investigating the changes in children's language awareness within a project that combines and implements translanguaging pedagogy and pluralistic approaches in an Italian primary and middle school (from Grade 1 to 8) with a high percentage of immigrant students. The language portraits produced by 71 children (between 9 and 12 years old) before and after their exposure to multilingual pedagogies were analysed using NVivo R1 in order to identify recurring patterns and differences. After engaging in multilingual activities, the emergent bilingual children whose first language portraits did not include their home languages decided to represent them. The majority of the children in the second language portrait also represent the languages spoken by their peers, indicating the recognition of the collective linguistic repertoire, as a result of the implementation of multilingual pedagogies.

Brief report: noise reduction in preschool from a self-regulated learning perspective-implementation of a game-based voice regulation training program.

An 8-week voice regulation training program (VRTP) incorporating everyday activities was implemented in an experimental preschool classroom (EG; n = 34), which was compared with a control preschool classroom (CG; n = 31). The VRTP includes songs, games, and conversations aiming to raise children's awareness of noise levels and teach voice modulation skills. Grounded in the theoretical framework of self-regulated learning, the study's objectives were to evaluate the impact of the VRTP on noise levels, children's self-regulation, and pre-literacy skills. Noise levels were assessed weekly using an electronic noise meter before and during the program. The EG preschoolers demonstrated modest but significant improvements over their pre-VRTP levels of voice modulation, behavioral and emotional self-regulated learning, and pre-literacy skills, in contrast with the CG children. The findings provide evidence that young children's self-regulation may be enhanced in preschool, challenging the field of developmental-educational psychology to consider self-regulated learning during early childhood.

Education to maintain dental health for children at SDIT Al-Madinah Bogor

The degradation of dental hard tissues caused by the acidic activities of bacteria and fermentation, coupled with the disruption of the delicate balance between demineralization and remineralization processes, leads to the formation of cavities known as dental caries. The elevated prevalence of dental caries among children can be attributed to poor oral hygiene practices. This situation arises partly due to improper tooth brushing routines and a preference for consuming cariogenic foods. Educational efforts have been undertaken to address proper tooth brushing techniques, promote a non-cariogenic diet that includes an increased intake of fiber-rich fruits and vegetables, and provide education on hand hygiene as well as regular visits to the dentist every six months. The primary objective of these endeavors is to enhance children's knowledge and awareness of maintaining oral and dental health, with the ultimate goal of reducing the incidence of caries among children. After counseling, it was found that children's knowledge regarding dental health increased by 26.23%.

Increasing Optimization of SDIDTK Training for PAUD Teachers during the Covid 19 Pandemic

The most important period in a child's growth and development is during the toddler years, because during this period the toddler's basic growth will influence the child's subsequent development. The development of language, children's creativity, social, emotional and intelligence awareness during toddlerhood will develop very quickly and is the next foundation in development. Previous research stated that out of 500 children whose development was measured aged 0-6 years in Jakarta, it was found that 11.9% of children experienced growth and development abnormalities. Sleman data for 2021 states that the number of stunting among children is 3445 under five. Based on data from the Jember Health Service, it is stated that the coverage of child growth and development detection has decreased from 60.58% in 2009 and in 2010 to 50.89%. The role of various parties is very important in overcoming growth and development problems in children, one of which is the role of Early Childhood Teachers. Based on these problems, it is necessary to implement strategies to reduce developmental problems in children early by holding cadre training on SDIDTK (Stimulation, Detection and Early Intervention of Child Growth and Development). Increasing optimization of PAUD teacher services with SDIDTK training. The method used is health education and training on SDIDTK. There was an increase in the level of SDIDTK knowledge among PAUD teachers where before training/counseling the average level of teacher knowledge was 52.82 and knowledge after counseling/training was 80.31. Conclusion: Education or counseling or training for PAUD teachers is effective in increasing knowledge related to SDIDTK.

STORY TELLING DENGAN HANDPUPET SEBAGAI METODA SOSIALISASI PENERAPAN PROTOKOL KESEHATAN PADA ANAK USIA PRA SEKOLAH

As an effort to prevent the transmission of Covid-19, people are required to implement new habits by maintaining social distancing and implementing health protocols. Health protocols must not only be understood by adults, but it is also important to apply them to children Socialization of health protocols to children must be conveyed through interesting and fun activities according to their stages of growth and development. The storytelling method is a method that is quite effective in attracting someone's attention, when telling a story to a child, his imagination and emotion will be awakened. To further attract children's interest, storytelling can be done using hand puppets (handpupets). To increase the enthusiasm and enthusiasm of preschool-age children in implementing the health protocol, a hand washing exercise competition was also held, which was participated in by kindergarten/PAUD students in the Tarogong Village area. The results of the activity show that various and interesting methods are quite effective in building preschool-aged children's understanding and awareness of the importance of implementing health protocols

Dental Health Education and Tooth Brushing Together at TPA AMALIA: "My Teeth are Healthy, I'm Growing Great!"

The main concern for children's dental health is damage to the primary teeth. Dental health in early childhood is a child's development that needs attention. This is a crucial concern in maintaining healthy teeth by teaching the habit of brushing teeth to children from an early age to adulthood. The purpose of this activity is to increase children's knowledge and awareness about the importance of maintaining oral hygiene and health from an early age. This community service activity was carried out at TPA AMALIA for 15 students using audio-visual media for the education. There was examination in oral cavity of students and tooth brushing together. The analysis showed an increased in students' knowledge and awareness about the importance of maintaining oral hygiene and health from an early age. At the end of the community service activity, the audiovisual media, dental and toothbrush teaching aid were donated to TPA AMALIA with the hope that teachers and students can practice brushing their teeth properly every time they need.

Developing critical thinking among children and bibliotherapy in the library

Purpose. The paper aims to point out the possibilities of developing critical thinking in children by conducting bibliotherapy workshops in the library based on the template of a traditional children's story. The work is based on a course that the authors run at the Croatian Training Centre for Continuing Education of Librarians to encourage critical thinking in children, develop reading habits and create a critical reader. It is based on workshops that were an integral part of the international project TRACE. Approach/methodology. The paper will present the workshops the authors conducted as part of the Erasmus+ project Traditional children's stories for a common future – TRACE. Workshops are shared with librarians through the Croatian Training Centre for Continuing Education of Librarians. We encourage children to think and create their own opinions using different methods, most of which are based on the modernized Socratic method. Results. Children often do not get to express their opinions by questioning their attitudes. The conducted workshops showed one of how it is possible to use stories with different ethical themes to stimulate critical thinking in children and teach them how to be active participants in their society. Practical use. Considering the possibility of using /combining several methods and conducting workshops in "continuations", it is possible to apply them both in school libraries and children's departments of public libraries. Originality and value. The paper points to the importance of developing critical thinking in children and highlights the value of traditional stories that influence children's awareness of their personality and shaping of their attitudes, contributing to the ability to solve life's problems and the development of a value system and the improvement of interpersonal relationships.

Intergenerational longitudinal associations between parental reading/musical traits, infants' auditory processing, and later phonological awareness skills.

The intergenerational transmission of language/reading skills has been demonstrated by evidence reporting that parental literacy abilities contribute to the prediction of their offspring's language and reading skills. According to the "Intergenerational Multiple Deficit Model," literacy abilities of both parents are viewed as indicators of offspring's liability for literacy difficulties, since parents provide offspring with genetic and environmental endowment. Recently, studies focusing on the heritability of musical traits reached similar conclusions. The "Musical Abilities, Pleiotropy, Language, and Environment (MAPLE)" framework proposed that language/reading and musical traits share a common genetic architecture, and such shared components have an influence on the heritable neural underpinnings of basic-level skills underlying musical and language traits. Here, we investigate the intergenerational transmission of parental musical and language-related (reading) abilities on their offspring's neural response to a basic auditory stimulation (neural intermediate phenotype) and later phonological awareness skills, including in this complex association pattern the mediating effect of home environment. One-hundred and seventy-six families were involved in this study. Through self-report questionnaires we assessed parental reading abilities and musicality, as well as home literacy and musical environment. Offspring were involved in a longitudinal study: auditory processing was measured at 6 months of age by means of a Rapid Auditory Processing electrophysiological paradigm, and phonological awareness was assessed behaviorally at 5 years of age. Results reveal significant correlations between parents' reading skills and musical traits. Intergenerational associations were investigated through mediation analyses using structural equation modeling. For reading traits, the results revealed that paternal reading was indirectly associated with children's phonological awareness skills via their electrophysiological MisMatch Response at 6 months, while maternal reading was directly associated with children's phonological awareness. For musical traits, we found again that paternal musicality, rather than maternal characteristics, was associated with children's phonological phenotypes: in this case, the association was mediated by musical environment. These results provide some insight about the intergenerational pathways linking parental reading and musical traits, neural underpinnings of infants' auditory processing and later phonological awareness skills. Besides shedding light on possible intergenerational transmission mechanisms, this study may open up new perspectives for early intervention based on environmental enrichment.

What can drawings tell us about children's perceptions of nature?

The growing disconnect between children and nature has led to concerns around the loss of ecological knowledge and reduced nature connection. Understanding children's perceptions of nature is vital for engaging them with local wildlife and mitigating this growing disconnect. This study investigated children's perceptions of nature by analysing 401 drawings made by children (aged 7-11) of their local green spaces, collected from 12 different English schools, including state-funded and privately funded. We assessed which animal and plant groups were drawn the most and least often, quantified each drawing's species richness and community composition, and identified all terms used in the drawings to the highest taxonomic resolution possible. The most commonly drawn groups were mammals (80.5% of drawings) and birds (68.6% of drawings), while herpetofauna were the least commonly drawn (15.7% of drawings). Despite not explicitly being asked about plants, 91.3% of drawings contained a plant. Taxonomic resolution was highest for mammals and birds, with 90% of domestic mammals and 69.6% of garden birds identifiable to species, compared to 18.5% of insects and 14.3% of herpetofauna. No invertebrates other than insects were identifiable to species. Within plants, trees and crops were the most identifiable to species, at 52.6% and 25% of terms respectively. Drawings from state-school children had higher plant richness than those from private-school children. Animal community composition differed between school funding types, with more types of garden birds drawn by private-school than state-school children, and more types of invertebrates drawn by state-school than private-school children. Our findings indicate that children's perceptions of local wildlife are focused on mammals and birds. While plants feature prominently, plant knowledge is less specific than animal knowledge. We suggest that this skew in children's ecological awareness be addressed through better integration of ecology within national curricula and more funding for green space within schools.

Interpersonal Communication of Da’i in Raising the Religious Awareness of Children in Conflict with the Law (ABH)

Currently there are many children who have to deal with the law, caused by cases of fights, robberies, murders. To deal with children who are affected by this case, a rehabilitation center is needed as a place for protection and education for children. Center for Social Rehabilitation of Children Requiring Special Protection “Handayani Jakarta” is a rehabilitation center that provides religious guidance as a method of rehabilitation for children involved in criminal cases. Religious Supervisors, in this case called da'i have an important role to choose the right communication in increasing children's religious awareness so they don't repeat their actions. This study aims to determine the interpersonal communication of preachers at BRSAMPK Handayani Jakarta and the interpersonal communication of preachers in increasing the religious awareness of children in conflict with the law. The theory used in this study is the theory of competence communication, while the method used is a qualitative method with a constructivist paradigm. Data collection techniques through direct observations, interviews, and document studies. The results of the study show that preachers in building interpersonal communication are by understanding children's character, fostering children's trust, providing guidance with a sense of humor, using language that is easy to understand and applying a firm attitude in guidance. In increasing ABH's religious awareness, the way of interpersonal communication used by da'i is to provide motivation, communicate persuasively, and conduct question and answer dialogue.
