The Relationship

ABSTRAK Pendekatan membacakan buku cerita oleh guru akan membantu anak meningkatkan keterampilan kognitifnya dalam memahami cerita yang dibacakan sebelum memasuki tahapan pembaca mandiri. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat hubungan antara pendekatan shared book reading(SBR) dan pemahaman anak terhadap cerita. Penelitian ini menggunakan within subject designdengan melakukan kontrol kondisi untuk membandingkan skor pemahaman anak terhadap cerita pada masing-masing kondisi yang diberikan. Partisipan dalam penelitian ini adalah 4 orang guru dan 21 orang anak (rentang usia 4-5 tahun)di Satuan PAUD Sejenis (SPS). Data kuantitatif yang diperoleh mengenai pemahaman anak terhadap cerita dianalisa menggunakan uji sign test. Penelitian ini juga memberikan pelatihan pada guru serta melakukan pengukuran terhadap keterampilan guru. Pengukuran pemahaman anak terhadap cerita dan keterampilan guru dalam menggunakan pendekatan saat membacakan buku cerita dilakukan sebanyak tiga kali pada tahap pre-test,post test 1dan post test 2, untuk melihat peningkatan yang terjadi setelah pemberian intervensi.Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa terdapat peningkatan skor pemahaman anak terhadap cerita saat guru membacakan cerita dengan pendekatan SBR dengan nilai probabilitas .05, yaitu 0.01. Hasil tersebut berbanding lurus dengan peningkatan skor keterampilan yang diperoleh guru setelah diberikan pelatihan pendekatan SBR yang ditampilkan di dalam grafik. Kata kunci: pemahaman anak terhadap cerita; anak 4-5 tahun; guru; pendekatan membaca SBR; pelatihan. ABSTRACT Certain reading approach used by the teacher will help children to improve their cognitive skills in understanding the stories that has been read, before entering the independent reader stage. This study aims to investigate the relationship between shared book reading (SBR) approach and children's story comprehension. This study used within group design by controlling condition to compare children’s story comprehension score in each condition given. Participants in this study were 4 teachers and 21 children aged 4-5 years old from an early childhood education unit or Satuan Pendidikan Anak Usia Dini (PAUD) which is categorized as Satuan PAUD Sejenis (SPS). A sign test was employed to analyze the quantitative data gained about children’s story comprehension. This study also provides training for teachers as well as measuring teacher’s skills. The measurement of children’s story comprehension and teachers’s skill in reading book to children was conducted three time, in pre-test, post-test 2, and post-test 2, to perceive the skill’s improvement. The findings of this study indicated that there was an increase in children's story comprehension when teacher read the story with SBR approach by showing probability value of 0.05, which is 0.01. These results were directly proportional to the increase in skills scores obtained by teachers after training in the SBR approach shown in the graph. Keywords: children’s story comprehension; 4-5 years old children; teacher; SBR approach; training.

Print Reading

Increasingly, children are engaging in early literacy experiences through digital devices. This raises questions about how electronic reading compares to print reading. To assess this, we randomly assigned 200 children (3–5 years) to be read the same book (1) with auto-narration on a tablet or 2) by a researcher from a print book. Reading was recorded and coded for behavioral and emotional engagement and vocalizations. Children were also tested on their story comprehension and vocabulary. Children had slightly higher posttest scores in the print condition. Older children and females also scored higher. There was an interaction between weekly tablet use and book platform. Children were equally engaged with the e-book and print book, but vocalized more about the device in the e-book condition. Findings suggest that e-books offer many of the same, but not all, of the educational affordance as print books. Additionally, novelty might be important in supporting comprehension.

Parents And Children

The ability to deduce implicit information about relations in a text (i.e., inferencing) is essential to understanding that text. Hence, there is increasing attention for supporting inferencing skills among children in early literacy programs including shared book reading interventions. This study investigated whether embedding scripted inferencing questions in a story that children (4.3–6.6 years) and parents ( N = 32 parent–child dyads) read together increases the number of inferences during shared reading and supports children’s story comprehension. Results showed that during shared book reading parents and children made more inferences when the book contained scripted inferencing questions. However, there were no associated benefits regarding story comprehension: having read with scripted inferencing questions resulted in comparable story comprehension as reading without scripted inferencing questions. In addition, after reading with scripted inferencing questions more inferences were made during shared reading of a second book without scripted inferencing questions.

The Given

This paper is concerned with embodied processes of joint imagination in young children’s narrative interactions. Based on Karl Bühler’s notion of ‘deixis in the imagination’, it examines in detail how a 19-month-old German-speaking child, engaged in picture book reading with his mother, brings about different subtypes of deixis in the imagination by either ‘displacing’ what is absent into the given order of perception (e.g. by using the hand as a token for an object) or displacing his origo to an imagined space (e.g. by kinaesthetically aligning his body with an imagined body and animating his movements). Drawing on multimodal analysis and the concept of layering in interaction, the study analyses the ways in which the picture book as well as deictic, depictive, vocal and lexical resources are coordinated to evoke a narrative space, co-enact the storybook character’s experiences and produce reciprocal affect displays. Findings demonstrate that different types of displacement are in play quite early in childhood; displacements in the dimension of space and person are produced through layerings of spaces, voices and bodies.
