Inside-Outside Circle Instructional Strategies with Image Media to Enhance Children Language Skills

Abstract


 
 
 Language skills are essential for early childhood, being able to speak clearly and process speech sounds, understand others, express ideas, and interact with others are the building blocks for a child's development. Therefore, this study will examine the effect of the Inside Outside Circle (IOC) instructional strategies with media images on children's language skills. This research is a quasi-experimental design with a posttest only and using a control group. The sample in this study were children in two kindergartens in the village of Banjar Tegal. Data analysis in this study was carried out by quantitative descriptive methods using t-test analysis techniques. The results of this study in kindergarten students in Banjar Tegal Village show that there is an influence of the IOC learning model with picture media on children's language skills (tcount = 6.28> ttable = 2.00). This shows that language skills achieved by groups of children participating in learning with the IOC model with drawing media are better than groups of children who attend learning without the IOC model. The implication is that further research is expected to develop other aspects of child devel- opment through the IOC model.

Enhancing Learners’ Speaking Ability in Project-Based Learning (PjBL):How does the Inside-Outside Circle Technic Work?

“…The teacher can use this activity as a formative assessment by standing in the centre of the circle and listening to the conversations that take place (Akhiruddin & Sujarwo, 2020;Arya Wiradnyana et al, 2020). Previous study explains procedures of implementing insideoutside technic as follows: (1) forming the students in to two groups inner and outer group;…”

Sociology teaching materials development based on the inside out circle model to espouse learners’ multiliteracies

“…Based on a study of the independent curriculum and learning theories, the researchers chose the inside outside circle (IOC) model because it emphasises the importance of the learning process carried out with a team that carries out its activities Akhiruddin et al, 2021;Arya Wiradnyana et al, 2020;Kagan & Kagan, 1994;Nahdi & Yunitasari, 2019). This IOC model is to develop sociology teaching materials because teaching materials are an alternative that can help students achieve learning goals (Yao et al, 2022).…”
