Analysis of The Needs of Receptive and Expressive Language Learning Model For Early Childhood with A Multimedia-Based Block Center Approach

The development of a multimedia-based block center approach to receptive and expressive language learning for early childhood is an effort to improve children's language skills. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the needs of a multimedia-based block center approach to receptive and expressive language learning for children aged 5-6 years. This research uses a Research and Development (R&D) approach at the Research and Information Collecting stage. Data collection methods were carried out through observation, interviews, and literature studies. Researchers observed Early Childhood Education (ECE) institutions and the learning process that occurred in these institutions, as well as interviewed principals and early childhood teachers. The collected data were analyzed using the Miles & Huberman analysis model to identify the needs of a receptive and expressive language learning model for early childhood. The results of this study are expected to provide information on the needs of an effective and enjoyable receptive and expressive language learning model for early childhood. Based on the results of the research using the Research and Development (R&D) approach at the research and information gathering stage, it shows that early childhood requires an interesting and interactive language learning model to improve their receptive and expressive language skills.
