The Development of a Drawing Skills Training Model for Early Childhood Teachers

One of the activities that can be done in improving the quality of Early Childhood or in Indonesia we called PAUD teachers is through drawing training. Teachers really need this skill training. Based on the results of interviews with a number of PAUD teachers in Padang City, it is known that PAUD teachers have very minimal drawing skills. Their students also really need drawing activities as a means and effort to foster creativity in fine arts. Drawing skills are a much-preferred area for developing children’s spatial skills. Thys type of research was a Research and Development (R&D) using instructional Model of ADDIE. This model encompassed of five phases, such as Analisys Phase, Design Phase, Development Phase, Implementation Phase, and Evaaluation Phase. The pictures are designed to train the teacher’s hands in drawing, thereby making the teacher’s wrists flexible. A flexible wrist makes for an attractive and creative image. Besides that, the pictures are designed to give the teacher a sensation when holding a pencil and scratching it onto the drawing paper.
