Investigating Self-Motivation Skills in Early Childhood Education during the COVID-19 Pandemic in Indonesia
Summary:
This study aims to investigate self-motivation skills in early childhood education (ECE) during the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia. Early childhood children have low learning motivation during the COVID-19 pandemic, because they are bored with activities at home every day. Self-motivation skill means a behavioral tendency to encourage oneself and others to fulfill the needs. We posed a research question, how did parents, early childhood teachers and government/other sectors motivate children. We did interview to five parents and five preschool teachers in DKI Jakarta as a pilot study. The result revealed that parents, teachers and government could help children in dealing with problems at home, so that children did not become stressed continuously. Parents worked with teachers through effective communication by email, whatsapp, zoom meetings, etc. to plan, act and evaluate lessons each week. The government cooperated with stakeholders to develop ECEC guidelines, facilitate internet access with free quotas, train ECEC teachers to use curricula and technology in learning during the COVID-19 pandemic, and conduct researches. In addition, they also provide staple foodstuffs for the community to overcome food shortages, because parents did not get sufficient income, and vaccine to prevent the spread of the novel corona virus.Profile:
