Desain Pembelajaran Project Insektarium Dalam Mengembangkan Literasi Anak Usia Dini

Abstract

This study aims to develop a project-based Insectarium learning design to enhance early childhood science literacy at Riyadhul Jannah Kindergarten, Subang. The research method used is Research and Development (R&D) with the ADDIE (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation) development model. The research process begins with a needs analysis in the field, followed by the design and development stages of learning products in the form of modules and project-based Insectarium learning media. The implementation stage was carried out in the classroom, involving children aged 4-6 years as test subjects. During the learning process, the children were introduced to basic concepts about insects, their habitats, and the important roles insects play in ecosystems through direct observation and documentation activities in the form of an Insectarium.The results of the study indicate that the Insectarium project-based learning design effectively improves children's science literacy, particularly in the aspects of observation skills, basic scientific understanding, and ecological awareness. The learning design product, consisting of a learning module and teaching aids, was validated by early childhood education experts and practitioners, recei ving a high feasibility rating. Classroom implementation showed positive responses from children, teachers, and parents, making this learning design suitable for use in enhancing early childhood science literacy.
