Tradition and Transformation: A Study of Early Childhood Education Teachers' Perspectives on Early Childhood Children's Angklung Music Playing Activities

Abstract

Playing angklung music for early childhood is one of the leading programs in several PAUD units that seek to preserve culture from an early age. However, the development of the era and changes in lifestyle are challenges in maintaining the existence of traditional games such as angklung. Teachers' views have an important role in determining the feasibility and effectiveness of angklung playing activities for early childhood. This study aims to describe teachers' perspectives on angklung playing activities for early childhood. This study is a descriptive qualitative study. The subjects of the study were teachers at ABA Sapen Kindergarten Yogyakarta who were involved in angklung playing activities with children. Data collection techniques were carried out through observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis was carried out through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the study showed that teachers supported angklung playing activities because they were able to stimulate aspects of child development, introduce culture from an early age, and be a medium to foster children's interests and talents. The conclusion of this study is that playing angklung in PAUD received a positive response from teachers and has important implications for developing children's potential holistically.
