Learning Media Genially, Developmental Aspect, Early ChildhoodAbstract
Various aspects of early childhood development often fail to reach their full potential, including low active participan and children’s limited focus during learning activities. One contributing factor is the continued use of traditional learning media, which tends to be less enganging and quickly leads to boredim. This study aims to describe the use of Genially interactive learning media in early childhood development. The subjects were children aged 5–6 years. This research employed a qualitative method with a descriptive approach, using observation and interviews with teachers as data collection techniques. Data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model, including data collection, presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results show that the use of Genially interactive media improves the quality of the learning process, particularly in increasing motivation, encouraging active participation, and enhancing children’s understanding of basic number concepts through enganging and meaningful learning experiences.
