EFFORTS TO IMPROVE CHILDREN'S LEARNING SKILLS THROUGH LEARNING GUIDANCE ACTIVITIES

Abstract

Education will encourage people to learn actively and independently. It will
empower all the potential that exists within the individual. One way to do this
is by studying. Learning is a process of effort that a person carries out to obtain
a new change in behaviour due to his experience interacting with his
environment. To achieve changes in children, children need to have skills in
learning, where learning skills are a system, methods and techniques that
students will master knowledge material or learning material delivered by the
teacher in an agile, effective and efficient manner. Improving learning skills
for children in Jungsemi village was carried out through the Field Study and
Community Service (Kuliah Kerja Nyata/KKN) program. KKN is an intracurricular

activity that combines the implementation of the Tri Dharma
(moral duties) of higher education, namely education, research, and
community service. Method for the KKN was tutorial activities for
Mathematics and English and Skills for elementary school children in
Jungsemi village. This tutoring activity resulted in positive activities during
the school holidays with measurable benefits, from no activities to fun new
activities.
