1.provide in your own words with one example in each case the definition of the following words in an educational context ?
1. Traditional media is media that has nothing to do with the internet. Traditional media marketing is a one-way conversation and is a closed system. Traditional media is mass marketing as oppose to one-on-one marketing like new media is. Traditional media is also more about the company whereas new media is more about the customers. New media is made in real time while traditional media is pre-made and scheduled.
2. modern media : are forms of media that are native to computers, computational and rely on computers for redistribution. Some examples of new media are telephones, computers, virtual worlds, single media, website games, human-computer interface, computer animation and interactive computer installations
3. educational media : These are any means of communication between the teacher and learner that allow interaction and feedback between the two parties (Angelo et.al,1993).Halverson (1992)define educational media as things used in the classroom to aid teaching and training .The author looks at the concept as synonymous to instructional media, that is objects, premises, events, machines, models or computer programs with which learners interact to form concepts ,practice, skills and then draw conclusions out of verbal explanations so as to change their behavior or attitude.
4. hardware : Hardware is the physical equipment or mechanical/electrical that make for a medium system operate e.g. a central pressing unit (CPU), mouse and keyboard. The hardware is used to run devices e.g motion pictures, video tapes, DVD players, radio TV, tape recorder, projectors, cameras and laptops. The hardware enables teacher to deal with more learners at least cost.
5. technology : TechnologyThe word technology is derived from two Greek words; -Techno (technique/how) and-Logy (knowledge/study).Technology = Technical know-how or technical knowledge.Man uses materials sources of power, machines and tools to make work easier and productive in the sake of satisfying his/her needs/wants.Whereas science tries to explain why things happen technology is concerned with how things happen.
6. software : SoftwareSoftware refers to data or programs not forming part of the hardware but used when operating the hardware eg a film in a camera, a transparency in an OHP, a cassette in a tape recorder or a program in a computer. It controls the computer’s operation.
7. interactive media : Interactive mediaThese are media format that allow/need some level of physical activity which much be shown by the learner rather than told eg a learner controlling a computer program.The pace and sequence of information is controlled by the learner.Since these media need the learner’s response, they catch the learner’s attention and interest greatly.The media enable learners to link data, information and ideas and also address learning styles, provide an effective learning environment in which learners can explore, add to and composes new learning at their own pace. However, the media are costly to develop and also require a detailed and careful planning thus they call for specialists.
8. educational technology : Bruce & Marsh (1996) looks at it as a logical arrangement of educational activities aimed at improving the learning – teaching process.
Richmond (1970) views the term as a scientific approach in solving, organizing, implementing and evaluating educational activities (teaching-learning).
The National Council for Educational Technology-UK defined the term as the development, application and evaluation of educational system for improving human learning process.

3. What is education media and how does it involve educational technology?
Educational media is a media for learning and teaching or learning software. Media itself means a method of communication. Educational media is primaliry aimed at producing the optimal combination of media so as to support learners.
Educational media and technology can be defined as all means of communication like prints, graphics, animations, audios and audiovisuals. Educational multimedia technology incorporates all the qualities of prints, graphics, animations, audio and audiovisuals and technology is defined as any object or process of human origin that can be utilised to convey media and multimedia. In this sense, technology includes phenomena as diverse as books, films, television, and the internet. In education, media are the symbol systems that teachers and learners utilise in representing knowledge and technologies are the tools that allow them to share their knowledge representations with others (Thomas, 1998).
Educational media and multimedia technology are the channels of transmitting information to learners’ and are also those gadgets, and machines that are needed in transmitting information to learners’. There are various types of educational media and multimedia technology currently utilised in teaching and learning processes which are: computer system, microphone, mobile device, interactive whiteboard, digital-video-ondemand, online media stream, digital game, pod-cast and so on. Computer system relevance in the classroom allows teachers to demonstrate a new lesson, animate, present new materials, illustrate how to use new programs and show new websites. In a noisy classroom or large classes, learners will be able to hear their teachers’ instruction clearly and in the process learn better with the use of microphones (Webcrawler, 2013). Mobile devices such as clickers or smartphones can be utilised in enhancing feedback activities during and after instruction delivery by the teacher. An interactive whiteboard provides touch control of computer applications which enhance the experience in the classroom by displaying visuals that can be viewed on a wider screen by learners’. This assist in visual learning, and interactivity for learners’ to draw, write or manipulate images on the interactive whiteboard. The digital video eliminates the need for in-classroom hardware players and allows teachers and learners to access video clips immediately without the internet access. Online media streams can enhance streamed video websites for classroom teaching and learning processes. The digital game motivates the learners in learning a particular concept at hand and its use is increasing everyday. Podcast is relatively new invention that allows teachers to publish files to the internet where learners’ can subscribe and receive new files from people by a subscription (Thomas, 1998).
4. Describe how some scholars become convinced to the decision of using the concept educational media and technology.
Educational technology which is the parent of Percival and Ellington learning media in the book Educational Technology, translated by Sudjarwo (1988: 9-10), writes a definition of educational technology, namely:Educational technology is the development, application and evaluation of systems, techniques and tools with the aim of improving the learning process for humans (Council for Education for Technology for the United Kingdom). Educational technology applies empirical testing techniques to improve learning situations (Nation Center for Programmed Learning United Kingdom). Educational technology is a systematic way in the design, implementation and evaluation of the teaching / learning process as a whole to achieve specific instructional goals. learning media are anything, objects, or even the school environment that build conditions that can make students improve the processes, situations, and effectiveness of teaching and learning
5. Discuss five principle functions of educational technology so as to improve the overall efficiency of teaching-learning process in classrooms.
a. The use of technology helps teachers meet their learners’ educational needs. According to Bransford, Brown, and Cocking (2000), the application of computer technology enables teachers and learners to make local and global societies that connect them with the people and expand opportunities for their learning.
b.technology provides so many alternatives as making teaching interesting and more productive in terms of advancement (Patel, 2013).
c. The usage of technology in class that can helps teacher for teaching vocab with multimedia texts in classroom assists learners in become familiar with vocabulary and language structures. The application of multimedia also makes use of print texts, film, and internet to enhance learners’ linguistic knowledge. The use of print, film, and internet gives learners the chance to collect information and offers them different materials for the analysis and interpretation of both language and contexts (Arifah, 2014).
d.Dawson, Cavanaugh, and Ritzhaupt (2008) and Pourhosein Gilakjani (2014) maintained that using technology can create a learning atmosphere centered around the learner rather than the teacher that in turn creates positive changes. They emphasized that by using computer technology, language class becomes an active place full of meaningful tasks where the learners are responsible for their learning.
e.Drayton, Falk, Stroud, Hobbs, and Hammerman (2010) argued that using computer technology indicates a true learning experience that enhances learners’ responsibilities. Technology encourages learners to learn individually and to acquire responsible behaviors. The independent use of technologies gives learners self-direction

What is the Importance of Early Childhood Education?
Early
childhood education is an education that preparing children before go to
elementary school. Early childhood education offered for children under six
years old through various types of media and methods. Institutionally, early
childhood education that already exist in Indonesia is a package in the form of
Kindergarten and Playgroup but people can do it independently. Early Childhood
Education (ECE) aims to help the cognitive and social development of preschool
children before they enter the elementary school. At an early age of 0-6 years
the brain develops extremely fast up to 80%. At that age the brain receives and
absorbs various kind of information, does not see good and bad. Those are the
times when children’s physical, mental and spiritual development will begin to
form. Because of this, many people said that this kind of period called the
golden age.
Based
on the result of the study, around 50% of the intelligence of adults has
occurred when a child is 4 years old, 80% has developed rapidly about brain
cell when the child is 8 years old and reaches its peak when the child is 18
years old, and after that despite improvements in nutrition will not affect
cognitive development. According to Byrnes, early childhood education will
provide preparation for children to face the future, the closest is facing
school. “At the present, some kindergartens have asked students who want to
register there to be able to read and count. In kindergarten, children had
begun to be taught social skills and problem solving. Because those abilities
can be formed from an early age” explained Byrnes.
Then
according to Byrnes also, that early childhood education is important, because
it is at the age that children form the best education. It is at this age that
children must form their readiness to face school and the future. And this is
also the best investment that can be given to children is educational
preparation at an early age. Indeed, it cannot be denied that early childhood
education is a very basic and strategic education in the development of human
resources. Once the importance of education is not surprising that many
countries pay enormous attention to the implementation of this education until
the Indonesian government also provides free education services up to the
junior high level. Therefore, early childhood education is very important for
Indonesian children in the future.
A lot
of psychological flow talk about the importance of self-esteem or humanism
self-esteem, especially Rogers and Abraham Maslow. Rogers divide the concept of
self into three parts, namely : (1) self-ideal, (2) self-image, and (3)
self-esteem. Self-image is perception that we are against ourselves. Whereas
assessment against ourselves, good-bad, smart-stupid this is called
self-esteem. People who have self-esteem optimal is called self-ideal. High and
low self-esteem depending on the ideal distance between yourself (ideal self)
and self-image. If long, low self-esteem. But if the distance is short the
pride is high (Musbikin,2004 : 96)
Harter
in Papalia (2009:383) say that as well as self-concept, self-esteem in the
early childhood tends to be all or nothing; ‘I’m good’ or ‘I’m bad’. Only in
middle childhood can a personal evaluation of competence and ability based on
internalizing a child’s parent or social standard become important in shaping
or maintaining a feeling of self-worth. In some literature, the term of
self-perception is also used which is a collection of beliefs and feelings that
children have towards themselves. This assessment is very influential on the emotional
development, behaviour and adaptation of children in the social environment.
Children usually judge themselves in a simple form, for example “I can wear my
own clothes already” or “I have many friends”. How high self-esteem of children
is very influential in the preschool period where they begin to learn to learn
new things.
Self-esteem
is a continuous process. Self-esteem that has been formed at an early age will
have a very significant influence on the behaviour of children’s lives in the
future. Real steps and the use of appropriate strategies need to be done by the
teacher and the school in order to pour out the development of children’s
self-esteem in the process learning. It must be realized that the growth of
respect their children for oneself is inseparable from how other people respect
their children. So the important is the development of self-esteem for each
individual, it is necessary to have synergic cooperation between teachers in
schools and parents.

THE
IMPORTANCE OF EDUCATION Early Childhood
According
to the law 20 Article 1, point 14 of 2003 on Early Childhood Education (ECD) is
a development effort aimed at children from birth to age 6 years conducted
through the provision of educational stimulation to help the growth and
development of the physical and spiritual so that children have the readiness
to enter further education. Education is an important asset for the progress of
a nation, therefore, every citizen is obliged to follow education, better early
childhood education, elementary education, secondary education or higher. In
the field of education a child from birth require appropriate care in
fulfilling the needs of education along with the understanding of the characteristics
of children according to their growth and development will be very helpful in
tailoring the learning process for children with age, needs and conditions of
each, intellectually, emotionally and social. The importance of education for
young children, this is the level of education before primary education, which
is a development efforts aimed at children from birth up to the age of six
years are accomplished by providing stimulation of education to help the growth
and development of the physical and spiritual so that children have
preparedness entering further education, which was held in formal, non-formal
and informal.
Improve
Cognitive Skills, Social and Emotional Learning process is essentially divided
into two concepts which take place simultaneously, namely the learning process
performed by the kindergarten children and the learning process carried out by
educators. Abin Syamsudin Ma'mun (1987: 4) also argued about the learning
process, namely "the learning process can be defined as an interaction
between children and educators in order to achieve the goal of teaching".
The learning activities in kindergarten prioritizing play while learning and
learning while playing. Naturally play to motivate children to learn something
deeper, and spontaneously develop children's abilities. Playing basically
concerned with the process than the results. According to the Opinion Bredekamp
cited by Musitoh (2003: 5) "play is a important vehicle for children,
social, emotional, and cognitive development "facilitate early childhood
.Pendidikan children get the social environment that suited him. Here he can
interact with more peers thus improving social and emotional skills.
Interaction with friends would encourage him to learn to communicate and
express feelings.
Through a variety of teaching
activities, children will begin to develop the cognitive ability to understand
and analyze the problem. By observing children are encouraged to develop
cognitive skills, for example in understanding the nature of the liquid, the
benefits of eating vegetables, about colors, counting objects, and so forth.
The learning activities in
kindergarten prioritizing play while learning and learning while playing.
Naturally play to motivate children to learn something deeper, and spontaneously
develop children's abilities. Playing basically concerned with the process than
the results. According to the Opinion Bredekamp cited by Musitoh (2003: 5)
"play is a important vehicle for children, social, emotional,
and cognitive development ".That is playing an
important vehicle for social development, emotional, and cognitive reflected in
the activities.
Improve
Communication Skills and Language Children will be taught to speak with current
formal language in the classroom. Teachers will also provide guidance on how to
talk nice and polite. Some activities such as playing and singing is also
useful to add child's vocabulary. This will improve speech and language skills.
To develop speaking skills, there are several aspects of speaking skills. Children's
language ability should be optimized based on aspects that support the
improvement of speaking skills. In the optimization speaking skills necessary
instruments to observe the development of early childhood / kindergarten,
refers to the indicators to be developed. According to Harun Rashid (2009: 134)
the ability to say, vocabulary and sentence should be developed instrument for
assessing, so it seems clear about the level of language skills of children.
Meanwhile, according Suhartono (2005: 138) aspects to do with stimulating the
interest of the speaking skills, drills combine the sounds of language,
enriching vocabulary, introduce the sentence through stories and songs, and
introduces the writing symbol.
Improve Physical and Motor Skills Many lessons taught are
encouraging creativity of children through fun activities. Such activity can
improve fine motor skills through activities that rely on the movement of the
fingers such as writing, holding, coloring, etc. They can also improve gross
motor skills through activities that rely on the movement of the hands and feet
such as hitting and kicking.
Following the early childhood classroom to help children
improve physical activity that is rarely done at home. Some activities that
help children move more include gymnastics, sports, play, dance, and so forth.
Early childhood experience physical and motor development, not unless the
development of personality, character, emotional, intellectual, language,
manners, and moral growing by leaps and bounds.
Therefore, if the nation wants intelligent, and noble character (Morality) education should be started from
childhood.
Children
Creativity develop sensitivity to rhythm, tone, various sounds, as well as
creative respect. (Yuliani Conscience, 2011: 42-43). Children who attend early
childhood education classes are more likely to develop creativity. Some of the
activities in the classroom to help children develop their creativity as
playing, singing, composing puzzles, coloring pictures and other so on.In this
stage children begin to learn about what he learned, sensitive to the
environment from what is seen and heard.
Preparing
Children's Mental Taking Formal Education Through early childhood, many parents
feel greatly helped prepare children to enter elementary school. Once entering
formal schooling in elementary school, the child already has sufficient mental
and some basic skills such as holding a pencil, recognize letters and numbers,
lined up, and so forth. In addition to following the children early childhood
can increase confidence. Many of the activities carried out in class that
encourages children to be able to appear as singing, dancing, playing, and
others. from that children already have the knowledge and attitudes that are
ready to follow the formal education better.
Conclusions
Early childhood is the golden age throughout the age range of human
development. This period is a sensitive period, during this period specifically
child easily accept stimulus stimulus from the environment. At this time the
child ready to perform various activities in order to understand and master the
environment. Golden age is a period in which aak start sensitized to accept a
variety of stimulation and a variety of environmental education efforts of both
intentional and unintentional. In this sensitive period occurs maturation of
physical and psychological functions that are ready to respond and to realize
all the tasks developments are expected to emerge in the everyday behavior
patterns.
Early
childhood education is a development effort aimed at children from birth to age
6 years conducted through the provision of educational stimulation to help the
growth and development of children physically and mentally in order to have the
readiness to enter further education.
Education in early
childhood basically covers all efforts and actions of educators and parents in
the process of care, upbringing and education of children by creating an aura
and the environment in which children can explore the experience gives him a
chance to know and understand the learning experience gained from environment,
through observing, imitating and experimenting that goes repeatedly and involve
all the potential and intelligence.

Preschool, Is It Good
Enough ?
Golden ages being a good time for
parents to start educate their children and preschool being a good way to reach
this goals. Preschool is a common things these days, because now almost all of
parents who has child in golden ages would like to enroll their children to
preschool. Preschool or early childhood education is a good beginning for
children to entered school in the future and children wouldn’t be shock once
they entered school because they have start to learn from preschool. Preschool
has a really good goals for each children who entered, but is it the impact as
good as the goals?
Barnet (1985, 1995, and 2008) mention
that a studies showing a positive impact of early childhood education [or
preschool] programs on [children] future development of individuals. That
statement means preschool has a good impact because it’s good for children
future development. Meanwhile, another studies even suggesting potential null
or even negative effects [for children who entered preschool] (Lipsey, Farran,
& Hofer, 2015).
Preschool helped children to gain more
knowledge that really useful for children future academic. Gain knowledge from
early education wouldn’t make student get shock once they start to study in
future school. Moreover, this condition sometimes make children think so much
than they have do before and it can being a factor children won’t to learn more
at home.
Another reason why early childhood education
was good because with preschool children can have a lot of friends to studying and
playing. Because almost of golden ages children actually more likes to play
than study.
Result of a research entitled “School-Based
Early Childhood Education and Age-28 Well-Being: Effects by Timing, Dosage, and
Subgroups” has shown that the preschool group [children] had significantly
higher levels of educational attainment for three of four select outcomes,
which means preschool give a good outcomes for children at that time and also
for children future.
For children better future, children
should have academic and intellectual skills, and preschool is one of a way to
start children academic and intellectual skills improvement. Daley and Carlson
(2009; Innocenti, 2005) said, “Studies that examine outcomes for students who
placed early and then successfully transition out of special education find
that these children continue to increase their gains in academic and
intellectual functioning across later development”.
Parents always want to give the best
things for their child since their child was really young and some parents
start it with enrolled they children to preschool to reach this goals. Because early
childhood education has many good impact even though there’s also bad impact,
it still a good chance for parents to make a better future life for their children.

WHY EARLY EDUCATION IMPORTANT FOR
CHILDREN?
Every parent
must expect the best way for the future of his child. However, many parents are
hesitant and do not understand the importance of education at an early age.
What should young people receive an education? Or is it important for early
education? regarding whether it is important or not, early education arises
various statements regarding this matter. Both things that agree with the early
education or reject the existence of early education.
According to Robert Coles wrote, "Our
morals are greatly affected by our social environments in the important and
influential early years, the environment is largely the parents and immediate
family.” as children become socialized and enter schools, more and more of
their moral character is open to the influence of peers and society ".
From his studies suggest the factors of children moral lives are very rich and
begin developing in infancy, as they learn about good or bad behavior and
interactions with others and observing behavior.
According to Bammett, “Experts agree that
supporting early childhood education is a win-win for everyone. “It’s not just
a cliché that we’re investing in our future”. He says, “These are the people
who are going to be paying for our Social Security. These are the people who
will be defending our country.”
According to David Elkind wrote, "if
parents are able to provide pre-school age education at home, are quite
competent and have dedication, in terms of enough time and energy to stimulate
children specifically then preschool is actually not important". Why is it
not important? Because if the home environment allows children to play with
peers and meet adults other than parents. But if the conditions that occur are
the opposite, the sign that preschool is important.
Ethridge, who is also a professor at the
University of Oklahoma, says that in her state many preschools still have
extensive waiting lists. "Because it's' not mandatory, they don't have to
provide enough for every child," she says. Children also
The research from early childhood programs
finds recent of studies demonstrate that state pre-kindergarten programs have
had positive effects on children’s readiness to learn, with large impacts in
some states. From the National Head Start, Impact Study finds, released in
2005, provide than previously existed of Head Start’s positive impacts on
children. Evaluation of Early Head Start also found a range of small positive
impacts on very young children’s cognitive skills, behavior, and health.
In conclusion, no matter the difference of
opinion from an expert about formal early education, the benefit from receiving
several types of education during the early years of their development to
children. However, there is no one size that fits all the instructions that are
most suitable for all children. While some children benefit greatly from early
education, it may not be the best educational setting for other children. In
most cases, children benefit most by receiving educational instructions from
their parents. Why this is the instruction of early education? because parents
are very important to evaluate the child's unique personality before
determining which program is most suitable for children because not all
programs benefit the child in the same way.

THE BEST EARLY CHILDHOOD
EDUCATION CURRICULUM
Early childhood education (ECE) is one branch of education that is related
to teaching children formally and informally, up to the age of about seven
years. the quality of early childhood education has a positive impact that is
directly received by children. Many different "curricula" or teaching
approaches can create an enriched learning environment for children. There are
several curricula in several countries in early childhood education. The
curriculum must reflect the child's development and include specific learning
goals for children. A good curriculum provides a balance between play and
structured activities. Based on Jean Piaget's research and philosophy, early
childhood education often focuses on learning through games that meet physical,
intellectual, language, emotional and social needs (PILES) in children.
The Montessori curriculum is a curriculum applied in
Montessori schools to support the development of infants, children and
adolescents from birth to adulthood. Among these methods, one popular method is
Montessori Education. It was founded by Dr. Maria Montessori in 1907.
Montessori Education provides by grouping children from different age groups together
in the same environment. But in the Montessori classroom environment, students
are in a small community and spend time with peers. Students have a limited
range of social activities in the Montessori education system. Montessori
education is a lifestyle and not an educational method. The children stay in
the montessori school an average of 2 to 3 years. of the 2000 children enrolled
each year, only about 10 percent drop out.
Reggio Emilia is the ECE curriculum starting in the
Italian city that respects teachers to build mutual respect with children. The
Reggio Emilia approach focuses on projects where children are presented with
certain concepts and they need to solve them through research, exploration and
questions. Because learning is child-directed and project-based, it is very
difficult to show parents that their children are actually learning. No
worksheets were sent home, for example, to show that their child had learned
their alphabet letters. This can be very detrimental to parents who want to immediately
see the results of their child's work.
The Waldorf School was founded by Rudolf Steiner of
Austria. Steiner designed his own education system in the early 20th century. The
goal of Waldorf education is to help children get better: they not only learn
how to read and write, but they learn how to communicate with each other. The
Waldorf philosophy views education as an art, so that every subject, whether
arithmetic, biology or English, is presented in a way of life that speaks at
the stage of child development. Each subject is presented through direct
experience and is usually coupled with art, poetry, music, drama and movement. However,
many Waldorf students become very stressed because they always have several
activities. And also the Waldorf school fees can be a barrier and are quite
expensive, for the kind of patent full day program reaches $ 35,400.
The High Scope / Perry Preschool began in 1962.
According to Schweinhart & Weikart (1999), High Scope focuses on children
making their own decisions about what should be the focus of their learning.
High Scope focus is planning, doing, and reviewing processes. Where children
make plans about what they want to do in the classroom, then gather together
with the class to review what they are doing. Children attend classes for two
and a half hours every day for one or two years. Teachers receive training and
curriculum supervision and work with small groups of five or six students
(Schweinhart & Weikart, 1993).
Language immersion in preschoolers specifically
concentrates on language learning. This educational philosophy, language as a
teaching tool to give your child a comprehensive and satisfying foreign
language experience. For example, children native to English can use Spanish,
French, Chinese, Italian, etc. As the target language, those who speak Spanish,
French, German, Chinese, usually use English as their second language. Children
who start learning foreign languages after the general preschool age (ie 3-4)
may have difficulty learning in immersion schools because of their brain
development which can inhibit the ability to learn a second language more
naturally. Although many parents worry that using two languages will cause
confusion for their children. Conversely, the use of two languages in the
same conversation has been found as a mastery of both languages (Research
quoted from the 2006 report at the Center for Applied Linguistics.)
So, there are many curricula for early childhood
education that are good for you to apply, and have a positive effect on
children's development in the future.
