Keberkesanan Pembelajaran Berasaskan Alam Semulajadi Terhadap Literasi Awal Bahasa Melayu Dalam Kalangan Kanak-Kanak Prasekolah
Abstract
Kajian ini bertujuan untuk mengenal pasti perbezaan skor min markah antara ujian pra dan
ujian pasca terhadap tahap pencapaian kemahiran literasi awal Bahasa Melayu kanak-kanak
prasekolah selepas pelaksanaan pembelajaran berasaskan alam semula jadi. Kajian ini
menggunakan pendekatan kuatitatif dengan kaedah eksperimen. Pengkaji telah menjalankan
dua jenis ujian iaitu ujian pra dan ujian pasca terhadap kumpulan eksperimen dalam
kalangan kanak-kanak prasekolah di sebuah prasekolah agensi kerajaan di Kota Kinabalu.
Kajian ini melibatkan seramai 40 orang responden yang dipilih secara rawak untuk
menjalani ujian pra dan ujian pasca. Data yang diperoleh dianalisis menggunakan ujian-T
agar analisis lebih mudah dilakukan dan dapat menguji hipotesis kajian. Dapatan kajian
mendapati skor min markah ujian pra adalah 32% manakala skor min markah ujian pasca
adalah 63.25%. Hal ini menunjukkan selepas pelaksanaan pembelajaran berasaskan alam
semula jadi dalam pengajaran dam pembelajaran literasi awal Bahasa Melayu terdapat
peningkatan sebanyak 31.25% untuk skor min markah ujian yang dilaksanakan ke atas
kumpulan eksperimen. Berdasarkan dapatan yang diperoleh dalam jadual ujian-T sampel
berulangan pencapaian kanak-kanak pra dan pencapaian kanak-kanak pasca adalah berbeza
secara signifikan, t (39) = -13.437, k < 0.05. Dengan itu, hipotesis nol yang menyatakan
tidak terdapat perbezaan yang signifikan pencapaian kanak-kanak pra dan pasca adalah
ditolak. Berdasarkan kajian yang telah dijalankan, dapat dibuat kesimpulan bahawa aplikasi
pembelajaran berasaskan alam semula jadi dalam pengajaran dan pembelajaran kanak-kanak
prasekolah membantu kanak-kanak menguasai kemahiran literasi awal Bahasa Melayu.
