Using Murojaah Wheel Media to Aid Qur'an Memorization in Young Children

The ability to read and memorize the Qur'an is crucial for young children, providing long-term benefits for their spiritual and cognitive growth. However, there is a growing concern about children’s decreasing engagement with the Qur'an due to the influence of modern distractions. This study addresses this gap by exploring the use of Murojaah wheel media as a tool to facilitate Qur'an memorization among children aged 4-5 years at As-Shoffah Early Childhood Education. The aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of this media in enhancing memorization skills. Using a quantitative ex-post facto design, the study involved 12 students selected through a saturated sampling technique. A questionnaire administered to teachers served as the primary instrument for data collection. Data were analyzed using simple linear regression with JASP software version 18.0. The results revealed a significant positive correlation between the use of the Murojaah wheel media and the students' ability to memorize the Qur'an (F=8.943, p=0.014). The novelty of this research lies in its focus on the application of interactive learning media in Islamic education for young children. Implications of these findings suggest that incorporating Murojaah wheel media in early childhood education can effectively support Qur'an memorization, providing a foundation for future Islamic learning. Further research on its application in various educational settings is recommended. Highlights: Murojaah wheel media significantly improves young children's ability to memorize the Qur'an. Integrating interactive learning media supports Islamic education from an early age. The study fills a knowledge gap in the application of innovative teaching methods in religious education. Keywords: Murojaah Wheel Media, Quran Memorization, Early Childhood, Islamic Education, Learning Tools

Asking for a friend: Reminders and incentives for crowdfunding college savings

Given the importance of college savings and the novel technologies that make gifting more accessible, new programs have been developed to increase college savings contributions among families and friends. Backer, an online college-savings platform that allows 529 account holders to “crowdfund” their child's education by inviting a team of contributors, is one of the first and largest organizations to facilitate such contributions among families and friends. We conducted a field experiment to examine the impact of a suite of interventions aimed at increasing both parent contributions through visual reminders and the contributions of family members and friends through account incentives. We find that visual reminders significantly increased the amount of contributors and the frequency of contributions. We find similar effects for a combination of visual reminders and relatively large recruitment incentives. This pattern of results indicates that it is likely the reminder component of the interventions, rather than the incentives themselves, that drove the improvements in study outcomes.

Integrating Islamic Values and Sports for Children's Moral Development

The general background shows the need for an educational approach that integrates Islamic values and sports activities to shape children's morals holistically. The specific background underscores the importance of this research at TPQ Al-Mu’minun, which teaches the Qur’an and integrates sports into its curriculum. The existing knowledge gap is the lack of in-depth understanding of the impact of integrating Islamic values in sports on children's behavior. The aim of this research is to analyze how this integration affects the morals of children at TPQ Al-Mu’minun. The results show that sports activities such as archery and martial arts enhance children's discipline, responsibility, and ability to manage emotions. The novelty of this research lies in the holistic approach that combines physical and moral aspects in children's education. The implications of these findings indicate that character education that integrates Islamic values and sports can provide significant benefits in shaping positive morals in children, which in turn strengthens their self-confidence, respectful attitudes, and obedience in daily life. Highlights: The integration of Islamic values in sports contributes to the positive development of children's morals. Activities such as archery and martial arts enhance discipline, responsibility, and the ability to manage emotions. The post-activity reflection process deepens children's understanding of Islamic values in their daily lives. Keywords: Integration Islamic Values, Sports, Children's Morals, Character Education, Reflection

Relegated to the Sidelines: A Qualitative Inquiry of Gatekeepers' Perspectives and Values of Physical Education for Disabled Children.

Several institutional aspects within the U.S. public school system impede the delivery of adapted physical education (APE) services to disabled children, including a lack of understanding and prioritization of these services by the special education team and a lack of qualified APE professionals to deliver these services. Thus, we conducted a qualitative inquiry grounded in a critical-ableism perspective to explore special education gatekeepers' experiences and perspectives of APE. Gatekeepers included parents, physical educators, and school administrators. Using a reflexive thematic analysis, we developed four interrelated themes: (a)disregard, negative, and charity mindsets toward disability; (b) systemic challenges in valuing and prioritizing APE; (c)presence as inclusion: (un)intentional marginalization in physical education; and (d)physical education for my child was a nightmare. These findings illustrate the complexities around the provision of physical education and APE to disabled children.

Objective To develop the knowledge,attitude,and practice evaluation scale for teachers' early childhood sex education and analyze the reliability and validity of the scale,providing evaluation tools for the research on teachers' early childhood sex education. Methods On the basis of relevant guidelines,publications,and the theory of knowledge,attitude,and practice,a preliminary pool of items for the scale was formed by group discussions.The scale was drafted after two rounds of Delphi expert consultation.In May 2023,stratified cluster sampling was conducted,and 535 preschool teachers from Changshou District,Chongqing were selected for a survey.Cronbach's α coefficient,split-half reliability,exploratory factor analysis,and content validity were adopted to assess the reliability and validity of the scale. Results An evaluation scale for teachers' early childhood sex education was formulated,involving 27 items in 3 dimensions of knowledge,attitude,and practice.The total Cronbach's α coefficient of the scale was 0.875,and that of the knowledge,attitude,and practice dimensions were 0.902,0.743,and 0.879,respectively.The total split-half reliability of the scale was 0.937,and that of the knowledge,attitude,and practice dimensions were 0.934,0.821,and 0.912,respectively.The content validity of the scale was good,with a factor loading range of 0.500-0.836 and a cumulative variance contribution rate of 61.57.The average score of teachers' knowledge,attitude,and practice in sex education was 72.85±7.13,with a good rate of 70.84%. Conclusions The developed scale for evaluating teacher's early childhood sex education demonstrates good reliability and validity,and it can be used to evaluate the teachers' knowledge,attitude,and practice in early childhood sex education.The evaluation results indicate that teachers have low levels of knowledge,attitude,and practice in sex education,and relevant departments need to carry out training on the sex education for young children.

Institutionalization Of Children And Their Overall Development

The ideal environment for children's physical, psychological, and emotional development is within a family. All children should live in supportive, protective, and caring settings that enables them to achieve their full potential. Those with inadequate or no parental care are especially at risk of missing out on such nurturing environments. Many children in India lack a stable home and family. These include abandoned, surrendered, and orphaned children, as well as destitute children with families. These children are particularly vulnerable in terms of their right to survival, development, and protection. The State is accountable for protecting the rights pertaining to these children and ensuring appropriate alternative care through its competent authorities, such as nongovernmental organizations and civil society organizations. The Government also enacted the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act 2015, which serves as the major legislative framework for child protection in India, ensuring the security, protection, education, welfare, and development of children in need. The paper attempts to explore the institutionalization of children, the shortcomings of such a process, and the felt needs of the children. It focuses on the concerns of institutionalization and the overall development of children, access to their rights, welfare provisions, and relevant legislations. It also looks at adoption as an alternative to institutionalization. The paper thus examines child care institutions from the perspective of the child and argues that institutional care should be the last resort. It also discusses contemporary social work and advocates for alternative care, along with comprehensive welfare measures to guarantee the protection and overall development of children in need

ИСТОРИКО-ПРОСВЕТИТЕЛЬСКИЙ ФАКТОР В ПЕРЕВОДЕ КАЗАХСКОГО АЛФАВИТА НА ЛАТИНИЦУ

This article is dedicated to the issue of the transition of the Kazakh alphabet from Cyrillic to Latin script. The article provides a review of the literature on the influence of Soviet ideology on education in general and on the influence of this ideology on the two changes in the Kazakh alphabet in the first half of the twentieth century. From our point of view, the modern approach is more flexible, scientific, and consistent with the process of Romanization in neighboring Turkic-speaking countries. We also took into account the position of Russian researchers interested in the problems of education policy in this area. It was important for us to analyze possible didactic and methodological problems associated with the introduction of Latin graphics into the educational sphere, since the education and development of children is a priority task of our society. Further, the collected data will be compared with the policy of translating the modern Kazakh alphabet into Latin and with programs such as “Spiritual Renewal” and “100 new books”. The research methods of the survey are (historical) observation and content analysis. The data were collected through a short-term review. The study results conclude that changing the alphabet twice in eleven years during the Soviet period is less effective and scientific than the current policy of translating the Kazakh alphabet into Latin.

An Appraisal of Nigeria’s Philosophy and Goals of Education on Gender Issues

This paper profiles the Nigeria philosophy and goals of education on gender issues. It relies entirely on secondary data and describes the educational situation in the Nigeria philosophy and goals of education on gender issues bringing out the objectives and strategies that the Nigerian government has embarked upon to provide access and quality education for children.

The effect of the policy statement on women is negative as man is the main focus. The paper adopts the feminism theory, using the qualitative design method of analysis to describe/appraise Nigeria philosophy and goals of education as they bother on gender issues. The paper concludes that the National Policy on education should be gender neutral to avoid the negative effect on the girl-child education in Nigeria.

Parental Education and Attitudes Towards Institutionalization of Children in West Java, Indonesia

BackgroundIn low- and middle-income countries, orphanages are often perceived as a means to secure education for children. Consequently, many parents send their children to orphanages, unaware of the potential risks involved. ObjectiveThis study aims to explore caregivers' attitudes toward child institutionalization in the context of placing children in orphanages. Participantsand Settings: Data were collected from 736 caregivers of children aged 0-7 years in Cianjur, West Java, Indonesia, in 2017. MethodsDescriptive analysis and logistic regression were used to assess caregivers’ attitudes and the likelihood of agreeing or disagreeing with six statements about child institutionalization. ResultsThe study found that most caregivers agreed that poor children are better off being raised in orphanages, but parents remain responsible for the child even after placement. Logistic regression showed that caregivers with higher levels of education were less likely to agree with placing children in orphanages compared to caregivers with lower levels of education. ConclusionsThis study highlights the importance of higher formal education in reducing caregiver support for institutionalization.

KARL ORFF AND SHINICHI SUZUKI ON THE IMPORTANCE OF EARLY CHILDHOOD MUSIC EDUCATION

In this article the authors consider pedagogical concepts of Karl Orff (Germany) and Shinichi Suzuki (Japan), regarding music education of young children. As is known, they dedicated their lives to the musical and aesthetic education of children and made an invaluable contribution in world music pedagogy. Leading scientists and researchers highly rate their activities. The article presents an analysis of scientific sources, brief biographical data and information. In particular, it is reveals that the creative atmosphere in his family influenced the becoming of K. Orff as a composer, musician and teacher. The desire for improvisation, composing music, poems and stories, staging theatrical performances became the core that contributed to the emergence of an integral system of music-aesthetic education of children called «Orff-pedagogy». Its basic principle defined by the concept of «learning-doing creating». Various types of musical activities, on which he relied in his work, aimed to emotional-creative and moral-aesthetic education of the younger generation.The uniqueness of Suzuki's method emphasized by the necessity of forming creative activity in the process of musical-performance activity, in particular, in playing the violin, from the earliest childhood. The materials of the article also allow us to understand that Suzuki's "method of talent education" implies: reliance on the belief, regardless of the child's capabilities, that every child has musical abilities; manifestation of the teacher's love for young performers; training them to creative labor; joint work of the teacher and parents in the musical education of children; manifestation of care and mutual assistance.In spite of the fact that K. Orff and S. Suzuki are representatives of different ethnic groups, cultures and traditions, but their pedagogical views have much in common. This is, above all, the manifestation of great love for children, the desire to bring them up to be creatively active not only in the process of communicating with music, but also in their relationship with the world around.

한국 부모의 자녀 교육 불안의 계층화: 공정성 인식의 매개효과를 중심으로

[Purpose] The purpose of this study is to define the anxiety of Korean parents regarding their children's education as a subtype of social anxiety and to analyze the factors influencing it. In particular, this study explores how parental education and income in Korean society affect anxiety about children's education and further investigates whether this relationship is mediated by parents' perceptions of fairness. [Methods] Using data from the 7th wave of the World Values Survey (WVS Wave 7) for Korea, a one-way ANOVA was conducted to examine whether there are differences in the level of anxiety about children's education based on parental education and income, thereby identifying the stratification of such anxiety. Next, a multinomial logistic regression analysis was performed to determine whether parental education and income continue to influence anxiety about children's education even after controlling for various influencing factors. Lastly, to verify whether the relationship between parental education and income and anxiety about children's education is mediated by parents' perceptions of fairness, PROCESS (Model 4; Hayes, 2012) was used. [Results] The results of the one-way ANOVA showed that as parental education increases, anxiety about children's education also increases, whereas higher parental income tends to reduce this anxiety. The multinomial logistic regression analysis revealed that anxiety about children's education among Korean parents is more influenced by income than education, and that age, residential area size, extroversion, religiosity, and subjective health status also have significant effects. Mediation analysis confirmed that the relationship between parental income and anxiety about children's education is partially mediated by perceptions of fairness in income and asset distribution, as well as fairness in educational, employment, and promotion opportunities. [Conclusion] The findings of this study demonstrate that anxiety about children's education in contemporary Korean society is stratified by income and that this anxiety can be interpreted as a negative emotional response arising from lower perceptions of social fairness. Based on these results, the limitations of this study and directions for future research are also discussed.

PENDIDIKAN ANAK DALAM KELUARGA

The family environment is the first and main place for children's education. It is the family that forms the character that will continue to imprint on the child for the future. A good education system must show the conceptual order of the educational process in the family as a realization of parents' responsibility for their children's education. These aspects such as worship, behavioral teachings, and education that increase children's intellectual, emotional, and spiritual intelligence. The success of education in school is highly dependent and influenced by education in the family. Children who are in a family that is not harmonious (broken home) will have a bad impact on children's learning achievements, behavior, and even mentality

Economic education of preschool children. A pedagogical view of the phenomenon

The article presents the significance of economic education in a person’s life and the need for it from an early age. The stage of development from which education on the basics of economy should start is the preschool age (3-6 years). The age of the ancestors, the initial stage of the child’s consumer socialization, during which its effects and ideas about the world of consumption are shaped. The consumer behavior of preschool children is determined by parents, who can use the purchasing process in the upbringing process. This issue is very relevant, since it constitutes an integral part of each person’s life and it’s also a subject of interest in many fields of social sciences, each of which introduces a different view, hence it’s multidimensional nature. The essence and significance of the process of economic education, including equipping children with knowledge about economics as well as basic ability of its usage in certain life situations were presented based on the research of recent publications collected from the Scopus and Google Scholar databases. The article points out the existence of tools that could be used in the methodology of preschool teacher’s work. The offered examples taken from pedagogic practice could help teachers with implementing methods of efficient economical education in the field of preschool pedagogy. The findings presented in the article point towards the need for economic education of preschool children and show its integral and timeless nature. One of the tasks of economic education in kindergarten is to shape the foundations of economic culture, which emphasizes the relationship between economic education and morality.

Dance Education in Promoting Children's Sociality and Study on the Role and Mechanism of Emotion Development

A Life's Work? Unpacking the Existential Meaning of Educational Mobilities for Migrant Families

ABSTRACTIt is axiomatic that middle‐class Asian migrant families invest heavily—practically and emotionally—in their children's education. Scholarship has linked this investment to strategies of capital accumulation. There has been little discussion, however, about the transformative nature of these strategies and how they might be framed in terms of migrants' whole lives. This paper applies theoretical concepts from migration studies and a framework proposed by philosopher Charles Taylor, to argue that educational migration should be seen as profoundly life shaping.
