Karina Wanda, Wiene Surya Putra (Author)Show Abstract | Download PDF | DOI: 10.31004/obsesi.v9i4.6903 | Check in Google Scholar
This study aims to examine the level of historical awareness among Indonesian university students, focusing on the differences between Malay and Batak students. Historical awareness was measured based on four main components: knowledge of historical events, understanding of historical research methodology, interpretation of historical events, and the perceived usefulness of history. The study involved students from two universities, namely Medan State University representing Malay students and Sumatera University representing Batak students. Data were collected through the administration of a history awareness test using an instrument in the form of multiple-choice questions that had been tested for validity and reliability to ensure the accuracy of the results. Data analysis was conducted by calculating the proportion of average historical awareness scores for each ethnic group. The results showed that Malay students had a higher level of historical awareness compared to Batak students. The T-test indicated that there was no statistically significant difference between the historical awareness of Malay and Minang students (df = 78, sig. value 0.198 > 0.05), suggesting that both groups had comparable levels of historical awareness. The findings provide new insights into how ethnic background influences university students' historical understanding. The results of this study are expected to serve as a basis for the development of a more inclusive and contextualized history education curriculum in Indonesia.

Anies Listyowati, Jahju Hartanti, Natasya Merdika (Author)Show Abstract | Download PDF | DOI: 10.31004/obsesi.v9i4.6923 | Check in Google Scholar
The preschool years represent a critical stage in children's cognitive, socio-emotional, linguistic, and psychomotor development, with creativity and giftedness as essential components of early education. However, the current education system lacks comprehensive strategies to effectively integrate language development as a foundational approach to nurturing creativity and talent. This study investigates the relationship between language development and the cultivation of creativity in preschool children through a qualitative methodology incorporating teacher interviews and classroom observations. Thematic analysis was employed to identify patterns in pedagogical practices that promote creativity through linguistic expression. The findings reveal that parental involvement and interactive learning methods foster children's creativity and gifted potential. The novelty of this study lies in its emphasis on linguistic expressions as indicators of cognitive and creative growth, addressing a gap in previous research that has largely overlooked the specific role of language in the development of giftedness during early childhood. These insights offer valuable contributions for educators in designing more effective strategies to enhance preschoolers’ creativity through language development.

Psychological Factors Influencing Universal Design for Learning: A Systematic Review on Inclusive Education
Syeda Parsa Jarar, Farida Kurniawati (Author)Show Abstract | Download PDF | DOI: 10.31004/obsesi.v9i4.6933 | Check in Google Scholar
This systematic review explores the integration of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) and Self-Determination Theory - Basic Psychological Needs Satisfaction (SDT-BPNS) in early childhood education. By analyzing 14 peer-reviewed articles from 2014 to 2024, this study identifies how UDL practices address relatedness, competence, and autonomy to enhance inclusive education. Findings reveal that collaborative learning environments and positive teacher-student relationships promote relatedness, especially when culturally adapted. Competence is enhanced through scaffolded learning, differentiated instruction, and teacher training programs, though limited resources and inadequate training remain challenges. Autonomy is supported by flexible, creative, and student-centered activities, but institutional constraints often limit its effectiveness. Integrating UDL with SDT-BPNS provides a comprehensive framework addressing both structural and psychological aspects of learning. This approach enhances motivation, engagement, and inclusivity by promoting emotional and cognitive well-being. However, cultural responsiveness, institutional support, and tailored training programs are essential for effective implementation. This review highlights the need for future research to explore long-term effects and develop culturally responsive UDL frameworks that incorporate SDT-BPNS principles.

This study aims to explore the application of the sorogan baca method in improving pre-reading skills among early childhood learners at TK Muslimat NU 1 Sukolilo. Using a qualitative approach, data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. This study involved teachers and students as its main subjects. The findings of the study indicate that the sorogan baca program improved children's pre-reading skills, providing them with a strong foundation for the transition to elementary school. Program improvement was observed in areas such as phonological awareness, letter recognition, and the ability to blend letters into meaningful words. The aspect of phonological awareness is seen in children, for example when they are asked to read or pronounce vowels with a loud and clear voice. The aspect of letter recognition is shown in this sorogan baca activity when the teacher pronounces certain letters, then the students will point to which shape/letter is meant. And the ability to combine letters into meaningful words can be seen through the child's ability to match all sounds with the right letters, know the letters in the word, and understand the word. In addition, this program provides an alternative model for strengthening early literacy by adopting a pesantren cultural approach that is very close to the community. However, it does not ignore the concept of playing in early childhood learning. This fosters an interesting learning environment and encourages active participation of children..

Syeda Parsa Jarar, Pratiwi Widyasari (Author)Show Abstract | Download PDF | DOI: 10.31004/obsesi.v9i4.6780 | Check in Google Scholar
Mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) have gained recognition for enhancing attention control in early childhood education, helping students sustain focus, filter distractions, and regulate cognitive effort. While previous research highlights short-term benefits, gaps remain regarding long-term effectiveness, real-world implementation, and comparative efficacy against other attention-enhancing strategies. This review synthesizes findings on the impact of mindfulness on sustained, selective, and executive attention, bridging the gap between controlled experiments and classroom applications. A narrative review approach was employed, analysing peer-reviewed studies published between 2013 and 2024 from Medline, Google Scholar, ERIC, PsycINFO, and Scopus. Studies were selected based on predefined criteria; prioritizing research conducted in early educational settings. Findings indicate that mindfulness strengthens neural pathways related to executive function, leading to improved focus, impulse control, and cognitive flexibility. Programs like the Mindful Schools Curriculum and Kindness Curriculum have demonstrated positive effects, yet barriers such as teacher training gaps, limited classroom time, and intervention variability hinder widespread adoption. This review emphasizes the need for longitudinal studies, cross-cultural comparisons, and the integration of digital mindfulness tools. While mindfulness offers promise as an educational strategy, further research is required to assess its scalability and long-term impact on attention control and learning outcomes.
