DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY AS A LEARNING MEDIUM IMPLEMENTED IN EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION PROGRAMS (A CASE STUDY AT KINDERGARTEN PLUS OF AL GEBRA BANDUNG)
This research is motivated by digital technology being a challenge in the field of education in this modern era. Intracurricular learning activities are designed so that children can achieve the abilities stated in the learning outcomes. The essence of intracurricular learning activities is meaningful play as an embodiment of "Freedom to Learn, Freedom to Play". Face-to-face teaching can be handled virtually with just a videophone, teleconferencing used for digital learning. This research was carried out at TK Plus Al Gebra Bandung. Researchers use qualitative research. A qualitative approach is a research procedure that produces descriptive data about people's behavior and written or spoken words. The aim of this approach is to find truths that can be accepted by human common sense. The research method used is the case study method. The case study method allows researchers to gain an in-depth understanding of a particular phenomenon or case being researched. By focusing on one or a small group of cases, research can explore the factors that influence the phenomenon as a whole. This research can be concluded that if applied wisely, digital technology can help and improve learning in PAUD. However, its success relies heavily on careful planning, strong support, and active involvement from everyone involved. Technology in PAUD is not just about incorporating digital tools into the classroom, but also about creating learning environments that are innovative, inclusive and encourage children's development.
