Abstract : Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris |
The aim of this research is to improve on the published Islamic story books which
includes pedagogical elements from the Quran and characteristics of a children’s story
book for the implementation of prosocial behaviour among preschool children. The
determined pedagogies are narrative, dialogue, repetition and questioning.
Typography, illustrations and simplified phrases are characteristics that are also
included. Also, this study lays out proper guidelines for implementing the improved
story books in a classroom setting. The guidelines are based on the shared reading
method which is the dialogic reading and also on feed backs from teachers after the
pilot test was conducted. This study is conducted based on the ADDIE model. To
know the effect of the improved Islamic story books on children’s prosocial behaviour,
the Modified Prosocial Behaviour Questionnaire comprising of 15 items was
completed by teachers during pre and post test. The sample comprising of 60 children
was randomly selected among children from three different preschools. Two different
classes from each preschool were involved as the controlled group and experimental
group. Based on the paired sample T-test, there was no significant difference in the
prosocial behaviour of the children in the pre test (M= 32.07, SD= 3.89) and post test
(M= 32.80, SD= 8.57) when using the original story books; t(29)= -0.427, p= 0.672.
On the contrary, there was a significant difference in the prosocial behaviour of the
children in the pre test (M= 23.83, SD= 7.33) and post test (M- 32.50, SD= 7.93)
when using the improved story books; t(29)= -16.478, p= 0.000. In conclusion, there
is an improvement in the prosocial behaviour among preschool children when
improved Islamic story books are used. This study, therefore, implies that the use of
appropriate story books for young children and adopting proper reading guidelines are
able to instil moral values more effectively among kindergarten children. |
