Peningkatan Kemampuan Kognitif Melalui Gaya Belajar Kinestetik Pada Anak Usia 4-5 Tahun Di TKIT Bina Insani Kabupaten Serang

Abstract

The goal of this research was to find out if and by how much pre-schoolers at TKIT Bina Insani,
Serang Regency, might improve their intelligence by using kinesthetic learning strategies. This
study employs an action research approach in the classroom (CAR). Kurt Lewin's research model
is employed, which entails the stages of preparation, action, analysis, and reflection. During the
2022-2023 school year, nine boys and six girls from group B served as the action research's
subjects, while the two teachers conducting the study served as the study's objects. Information
about the skills of the instructor and the intellectual capacities of the students were gathered
through observation and the usage of observation sheets. The study found that the teacher's
actions in Cycle I were not completely put into practice. This work must therefore proceed into
Cycle II. The level of teacher activity was rated as "good" (3.15 out of 4) in Cycle I, and as "very
good" (3.65) in Cycle II. In Cycle I, children's intelligence scored 51.38 on the "Beginning to
Develop" (MB) scale, while in Cycle II, they scored 79.16 on the "Very Good Developing" (BSB)
scale. Success in cycle II can be attributed to an increase in kinesthetic learning techniques and
cognitive capacities.
