| Summary: | <p>The aim of this research is to improve on the published Islamic story books which</p><p>includes pedagogical elements from the Quran and characteristics of a childrens story</p><p>book for the implementation of prosocial behaviour among preschool children. The</p><p>determined pedagogies are narrative, dialogue, repetition and questioning.</p><p>Typography, illustrations and simplified phrases are characteristics that are also</p><p>included. Also, this study lays out proper guidelines for implementing the improved</p><p>story books in a classroom setting. The guidelines are based on the shared reading</p><p>method which is the dialogic reading and also on feed backs from teachers after the</p><p>pilot test was conducted. This study is conducted based on the ADDIE model. To</p><p>know the effect of the improved Islamic story books on childrens prosocial behaviour,</p><p>the Modified Prosocial Behaviour Questionnaire comprising of 15 items was</p><p>completed by teachers during pre and post test. The sample comprising of 60 children</p><p>was randomly selected among children from three different preschools. Two different</p><p>classes from each preschool were involved as the controlled group and experimental</p><p>group. Based on the paired sample T-test, there was no significant difference in the</p><p>prosocial behaviour of the children in the pre test (M= 32.07, SD= 3.89) and post test</p><p>(M= 32.80, SD= 8.57) when using the original story books; t(29)= -0.427, p= 0.672.</p><p>On the contrary, there was a significant difference in the prosocial behaviour of the</p><p>children in the pre test (M= 23.83, SD= 7.33) and post test (M- 32.50, SD= 7.93)</p><p>when using the improved story books; t(29)= -16.478, p= 0.000. In conclusion, there</p><p>is an improvement in the prosocial behaviour among preschool children when</p><p>improved Islamic story books are used. This study, therefore, implies that the use of</p><p>appropriate story books for young children and adopting proper reading guidelines are</p><p>able to instil moral values more effectively among kindergarten children.</p> |
