Abstract


This study aimed to investigate the significance of education management in improving early childhood education (ECE) teachers’ skills and enriching their experiences. The Contingency Theory, as proposed by Donaldson, emphasizes that education management should be tailored to specific contexts and challenges of the environment. In line with this theory, training for ECE teachers in this study considered factors such as school size, demographics, and available resources to ensure teachers adapt teaching strategies to meet students’ needs. A mixed method that combined qualitative and quantitative design was used. Furthermore, a total of 100 randomly selected ECE teachers were recruited as respondents to provide quantitative data through pre-test and post-test questionnaires. The qualitative phase involved in-depth interviews with 10 teachers, selected based on having less than 3 years of work experience. Moreover, training aimed to assess the improvement of teachers’ teaching skills, covering topics such as questioning techniques, explaining concepts, reinforcement strategies, diverse instructional methods, as well as effective lesson opening and closing techniques. Another focus was on improving small group and individual teaching skills, classroom management, and facilitating small group discussions. The results showed a significant improvement in the teaching skills of ECE teachers in Surakarta, as evidenced by the pre-test and post-test. In addition, this study showed the importance of professional development in fostering effective teaching practices in ECE.
