Disertasi, Program Studi S3 Teknologi Pendidikan, Fakultas Ilmu Pendidikan, Universitas Negeri Surabaya. Pembimbing : (1) Prof. Dr. Siti Masitoh, M.Pd dan (II)  Dr. Fajar Arianto, M.Pd

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji : (1) pengaruh model whole brain teaching terhadap perkembangan kognitif anak usia dini; (2) pengaruh model whole brain teaching terhadap perkembangan bahasa anak usia dini; (3) pengaruh model whole brain teaching terhadap perkembangan sosial  anak usia dini.

Pada penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan jenis penelitian eksperimen dengan desain penelitian quasi-experiment.  Subyek penelitian ini anak anak kelompok B di TK Sidoarjo sebanyak 90 anak yang terdiri dari 45 anak pada kelas eksperimen dan 45 anak di kelas kontrol. Data penelitian diperoleh dari tiga instrumen yaitu : 1) instrumen perkembangan kognitif, 2) instrumen perkembangan bahasa, 3) instrumen perkembangan sosial. Analisis data penelitian menggunakan MANOVA (Multivariate Analysis of Variance).

Berdasarkan hasil analisis data uji hipotesis dengan taraf signifikansi 0,000 < 0,05 menunjukkan bahwa (1) ada pengaruh model Whole Brain Teaching (WBT)  terhadap perkembangan kognitif anak dengan nilai F Hitung sebesar 46,915; (2) ada pengaruh model whole brain teaching (WBT)  terhadap perkembangan bahasa anak dengan nilai F Hitung sebesar 37,20;  (3) ada pengaruh model whole brain teaching (WBT)  terhadap perkembangan sosial anak dengan nilai F Hitung sebesar 27,71. Berdasarkan data tersebut maka menunjukkan bahwa ada pengaruh penerapan whole brain teaching (WBT) terhadap perkembangan kognitif, bahasa dan sosial anak usia dini. Bagi peneliti selanjutnya disarankan untuk meneliti tentang model pembelajaran whole brain teaching (WBT) ini dengan variabel aspek perkembangan anak usia dini selain kognitif, bahasa dan sosial anak.

Kata-kata Kunci : Model Whole Brain Teaching (WBT), perkembangan kognitif, perkembangan bahasa, perkembangan sosial, anak usia dini.

Aulina, Choirun Nisak, 2024, The Effect of the Whole Brain Teaching (WBT) Model on the Cognitive, Language and Social Development of Early Childhood in Sidoarjo Kindergartens. Dissertation, Educational Technology Doctoral Study Program, Faculty of Education, Surabaya State University. Supervisor: (1) Prof. Dr. Siti Masitoh, M.Pd and (II) Dr. Fajar Arianto, M.Pd

This research aims to test: (1) the effect of the Whole Brain Teaching (WBT) model on the cognitive development of very young learners; (2) the effect of the WBT model on early childhood language development; (3) the effect of the WBT model on the social development of very young learners.

This research uses a quantitative approach with an experimental research type with a quasi-experiment research design.  The subjects of this research were 90 group B children in Sidoarjo Kindergartens, consisting of 45 children in the experimental class and 45 children in the control class. Research data was obtained from three instruments, namely: 1) Cognitive Ability Instrument, 2) Language Ability Instrument, 3) Social Ability Instrument. Research data analysis used MANOVA (Multivariate Analysis of Variance).

Based on the results of hypothesis testing data analysis with a significance level of 0.000 < 0.05, it shows that (1) there is an effect of the WBT model on children's cognitive development with a calculated F value of 46.915; (2) there is an effect of the WBT model on children's language development with a calculated F value of 37.20; (3) there is an influence of the WBT model on children's social development with a calculated F value of 27.71. Based on these data, it shows that there is an effect of implementing WBT on the cognitive, language and social abilities of early childhood. Future researchers are recommended to explore the WBT learning model with variable aspects of early childhood development other than cognitive, language and social aspects of very young learners.

Keywords: Whole Brain Teaching (WBT) model, cognitive development, language development, social development, early childhood.
