Application of Animated Video Media to Improve Disciplined Behavior of 5-Year-Old Children at RA Al Rizky Padang Sidempuan

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the impact of the use of animated video media on improving the discipline attitude of five-year-olds at RA Al Rizky Padang Sidempuan. The method used is Class Action Research (PTK) which is carried out in two cycles, including the stages of planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. The number of research subjects was 23 children, consisting of 12 women and 11 boys.Before the action was implemented, children's disciplinary behavior was still low. After learning using animated videos that contain moral messages, children begin to show positive changes in terms of obedience to rules, habits of tidying up toys, and the ability to follow teachers' instructions. The first cycle shows early development, and the second cycle results in stronger behavioral improvements, thanks to reinforcement through discussion and the active involvement of teachers in the learning process. From the results obtained, it can be concluded that animation video media is very effective in shaping and strengthening early childhood discipline behavior, as well as creating a more interactive, fun, and meaningful learning atmosphere.
