Implementing Fun Cooking Media in Healthy Food: A Computer-based Use

Abstract

This paper analyzes an implementation of fun cooking in healthy food toward a computer-based use to increase the knowledge of students aged 5-6 years. Respondents were students of group B in Ikal 1 Kindergarten at East Jakarta, Kreativa Kindergarten at Bogor City, Generasi Bangsa Early Childhood Education Program, and An-Nashihin Kindergarten. Data analysis was done using qualitative analysis for quantitative data and qualitative analysis or inference (Z-test) for quantitative data in order to analyze the results of a trial model using an experimental design. This research design used a two-group pretest-posttest. Paired Sample Test results obtained a pvalue of 0.000 smaller than 0.05. H0 is rejected, and H1 is accepted. It means that there is significant influence between knowledge of students aged 5-6 years before and after implementing fun cooking media in healthy food toward a computer-based use. It has an average value of 96% which expects higher media effectiveness. Zcount obtained –2.89 but Ztable with α = 0.05 obtained –1.96. In Z-counts < –Ztable, H0 is rejected, and H1 is accepted. It means that there is a significant difference in the use of old media toward images and new media toward computer-based. In conclusion, the implementation of fun cooking in healthy food toward a computer-based use is better than image.
