Kata Kunci : Kognitif, Problem Solving, Mengenal Konsep Besar-Kecil, Banyak-Sedikit, Model Problem Based Learning, Model Make A Match, Media Powerpoint.

Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi pada rendahnya kemampuan Problem Solving dan perkembangan kognitif anak dalam mengenal konsep besar-kecil, banyak-sedikit. Hal ini disebabkan pembelajaran bersifat satu arah, pembelajaran kurang menarik perhatian anak dan kurangnnya partisipasi anak dalam pembelajaran. Hal ini berdampak pada rendahnya kemampuan Problem Solving dan perkembangan kognitif anak dalam mengenal konsep besar-kecil, banyak-sedikit. Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk mengetahui aktivitas guru, aktivitas anak, kemampuan Problem Solving dan hasil perkembangan kognitif anak menggunakan model Problem Based Learning dan Make A Match berbantuan media Powerpoint.

Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan jenis Penelitian Tindakan Kelas (PTK), yang dilaksanakan dengan empat kali pertemuan. Subjek penelitian adalah anak kelompok A2 TK Idhata II Banjarmasin berjumlah 13 orang anak. Teknik pengumpulan data menggunakan observasi aktivitas guru, aktivitas anak, kemampuan Problem Solving dan hasil perkembangan kognitif anak. Analisis data dilakukan dengan teknik deskrisptif kualitatif yang dijabarkan dengan tabulasi dan grafik persentase indikator keberhasilan perkembangan yang ditetapkan.

Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa aktivitas guru berada pada kategori “Sangat Baik” dengan skor 28.  Aktivitas anak berada pada kategori “Seluruh Anak Aktif” dengan memperoleh persentase 100%. Kemampuan Problem Solving Anak berada pada kategori “Sangat Baik” dengan memperoleh 100%. Hasil perkembangan kognitif berada pada kategori “Berkembang Sangat Baik” dengan memperoleh persentase 100%.

Berdasarkan hasil penelitian disimpulkan bahwa penerapan model Problem Based Learning dan Make A Match  berbantuan media Powerpoint dapat mengembangkan kemampuan Problem Solving dan hasil perkembangan kognitif dalam mengenal konsep besar-kecil, banyak-sedikit sesuai indikator keberhasilan yang ditetapkan. Disarankan bagi guru dapat dijadikan referensi dalam memilih model dan media pembelajaran. Bagi kepala sekolah dapat dijadikan bahan bahan dalam melaksanakan supervisi pembelajaran. Bagi peneliti lain dapat dijadikan sebagai salah satu referensi dalam melaksanakan penelitian yang lebih mendalam.

ABSTRACT

Mutiah, Noor. 2024.  “Developing Problem Solving Abilities and Cognitive Development Using a Problem Based Learning and Make A Match Models Assisted by Powerpoint Media in Group A2 Kindergarten Idhata II Banjarmasin”.

Keywords: Cognitive, Problem Solving, concepts of big-small many-little, Problem Based Learning Models, Make A Match Models, Powerpoint Media.

This research is motivated by the low problem-solving abilities and cognitive development of children in recognizing the concepts of big-small, many-little. This is because learning is one-way, learning does not attract children's attention and there is a lack of children's participation in learning. This has an impact on children's low problem-solving abilities and cognitive development in recognizing the concepts of big-small, many-little. The aim of this research is to determine teacher activities, children's activities, Problem Solving abilities and the results of children's cognitive development through the Problem Based Learning, Make A Match model assisted by Powerpoint media.

This research uses a qualitative  approach with the type of Classroom Action Research (CAR) which was carried out in four meetings. The research subjects were 13 children from group A2 of TK Idhata II Banjarmasin. Data collection techniques use observation and assessment of teacher activities, children's activities, Problem Solving abilities and children's cognitive development results. Data analysis was carried out using qualitative descriptive techniques which were explained using tabulations and Percentage chart of established developmental success indicators.

The results of this research show that teacher activity is in the "Very Good" category with a score of 28. Children's activity is in the "All Children Active" category with a percentage of 100%. The child's problem solving ability is in the "Very Good" category with a score of 100%. The results of cognitive development are in the "Very Good Development" category with a percentage of 100%.

Based on the research results, it can be concluded that the application of Problem Based Learning and Make A Match models assisted by Powerpoint media can develop Problem Solving abilities and produce cognitive development in recognizing the concepts of big-small, big-small according to understanding. established indicators of success. It is recommended for teachers to use it as a reference in choosing learning models and media. For school principals, it can be used as material in carrying out learning supervision. For other researchers, it can be used as a reference in conducting more in-depth research.
