Strategi Pembelajaran Berbasis Bukti untuk Mengembangkan Scientific Thinking pada Anak Usia Dini: Literature Review
DOI:
https://doi.org/10.31004/obsesi.v10i1.7673Keywords:
Anak Usia Dini, Perkembangan Kognitif, Scientific ThinkingAbstract
Scientific Thinking merupakan fondasi penting bagi perkembangan kognitif dan literasi sains anak usia dini, namun pembelajarannya di PAUD belum sepenuhnya berbasis kerangka perkembangan dan bukti empiris. Artikel ini bertujuan mengidentifikasi konsep, komponen, tahapan, serta strategi pengembangan Scientific Thinking melalui kajian literatur. Metode yang digunakan adalah narrative literature review terhadap artikel nasional dan internasional sepuluh tahun terakhir dari Google Scholar, ERIC, dan ScienceDirect. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa Scientific Thinking mencakup kemampuan mengamati, bertanya, menalar, menguji dugaan, dan mengomunikasikan temuan. Pembelajaran inkuiri, permainan sains, eksperimen sederhana, dan pendekatan STEAM efektif menstimulasi berpikir ilmiah anak. Disimpulkan bahwa pengembangan Scientific Thinking menuntut pembelajaran kontekstual dengan guru sebagai fasilitator aktif. Implikasinya, guru perlu merancang aktivitas eksploratif, lembaga PAUD menyediakan lingkungan kondusif, dan kebijakan kurikulum menguatkan pendekatan inkuiri sejak dini.
