IMPLEMENTASI E-BOOT UNTUK MENINGKATKAN KETERAMPILAN BERFIKIR DAN BAHASA INGGRIS PADA ANAK USIA DINI DI TK ISLAM AL KARIMAH

Abstract

Education units can implement the Independent Curriculum in stages according to their respective readiness. One of the implementations of the Independent Curriculum is student-centered. Of course, this activity is very good if the school is able to implement it. This is in line with Permendikbudristek No. 5 of 2022. Robot-assisted foreign language learning is an integral part of Technology Enhanced Language Learning which is getting a lot of attention along with the development of speech recognition and synthesis technology. The problems encountered in implementing this are that teachers do not have competence in the field of IT, students lack interest in learning and their English language skills are relatively minimal and teachers have difficulty using PMM (Merdeka Mengajar Platform). The methods used are design, implementation, training and guidance as well as the evaluation stage. Based on the results of evaluations carried out directly and through the distribution of pre and post test questionnaires, it can be seen that the skills and knowledge of teachers and students have increased regarding the use of IT in learning, it can be seen that teachers are skilled in use of PMM, and children become enthusiastic in receiving learning, especially English, so that children's vocabulary increases quickly.
