IMPLEMENTATION OF UNPLUGGED CODING IN PLAYDATE
Abstract
Pendidikan global semakin menyadari pentingnya mengintegrasikan keterampilan berpikir komputasional sejak usia dini, untuk mempersiapkan anak-anak menghadapi tantangan di masa depan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi penerapan pendekatan unplugged coding dalam mengembangkan kemampuan CT pada anak usia dini di Playdate Zona Kreativa, Bandung. Pendekatan unplugged coding memungkinkan pengenalan konsep pemrograman dasar melalui kegiatan fisik dan permainan sederhana, tanpa menggunakan teknologi digital. Untuk memahami bagaimana para pendidik mengimplementasikan pendekatan ini dan kompetensi apa saja yang diperoleh anak, penelitian ini menggunakan desain studi kasus. Data diperoleh melalui wawancara terstruktur dan observasi non-partisipan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemahaman guru terhadap unplugged coding cukup baik, meskipun masih ada beberapa tantangan dalam implementasi sehari-hari. Contoh implementasi yang diamati menunjukkan bahwa pendekatan ini mampu memperkenalkan konsep dasar CT kepada anak-anak dengan cara yang interaktif dan menyenangkan. Studi ini merekomendasikan perlunya pelatihan lebih lanjut untuk guru dan penyesuaian materi agar lebih sesuai dengan kebutuhan anak usia dini.
