The purpose of this study was to describe the practice of art
learning in Kindergarten during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The research method used was a survey. The research
target is that a detailed description of art learning practices
in Kindergarten during the COVID-19 pandemic can be
drawn up as a basis for formulating the basic needs for
improving the quality of learning. The results of the
research can be used to improve educational praxis,
formulate hypotheses, create initial development plans,
evaluate programs, and evaluate policies, especially art
learning in Kindergarten units. The results showed that
PAUD teachers developed an art lesson plan and
implemented it. However, the type of art that was taught
was visual art, while dance and music were never
performed. Likewise, the use of WhatsApp media is more
widely used in online art learning than other social media.
Also using audio media and taking examples of art learning
from social media. Parents actively participate in taking
learning media to school and sending photos and videos of
the learning process at home. With online learning,
teachers have difficulty using technology for early
childhood art learning, and prefer to use face-to-face
learning. Likewise with parents, parents prefer their
children to learn face to face so they can meet the teacher
directly.

INTRODUCTION
Art is a beauty. It is unavoidable that art is always present in the form of beauty.
Art is created for various reasons or reasons according to the human condition that makes
it, but a work that is considered to have artistic value usually also contains an aesthetic
element. Standards for aesthetic or aesthetic elements have a relative nature, depending
on the culture and way of life of humans in a particular area (Gobster, Nassauer, Daniel,
& Fry, 2007). This means that standards for beauty can differ from one community to
another (Tang et al., 2012).
The results or processes of human work and ideas that involve skilled, creative
abilities, sensory sensitivity, heart sensitivity and thought to produce a work that has a
beautiful, harmonious, artistic value and others are usually called art (Rahman, 2019). In
the creation or arrangement of a work of art carried out by artists, creative skills are
needed specifically according to the type of artwork they make (Burton, Horowitz, &
Abeles, 1999)(Weisberg, 2006)(Niu & Sternberg, 2001). Studying art is an understanding
of aesthetics (beauty) and the re-disclosure of aesthetics in a work of art. Understanding
aesthetics is an event of entering aesthetics through the sense of taste and thought to
objectify.
Art is fundamental in early childhood education (Prince, 2008). This does not
mean to exclude other subject areas. However, it seems that there is no program for
children that can succeed without emphasizing the arts. After all, art always makes
children feel happy and happy. Why are children always happy? The fact is that art
materials stimulate children's creativity in different ways, as Dewey said in (Grube,
Delvendahl, Seefeld, & Volta, 2012) that they make children think. Perhaps that is the
reason why children love art.
Art education is essentially a process of human formation through art (Eisner,
1987; Gardner, 1990). Education in general serves to develop the ability of every child to
find fulfillment in life, to transmit cultural heritage, to expand social awareness and as a
way to increase knowledge. In this case, the goal of art education is actually in line with
the broad responsibilities of educational goals in general.
Art education as a form to shape the attitude and personality of children who
have mental functions which include fantasy, sensitivity, creativity and expression. A
child can fantasize about his work, through the feeling of the child pouring his ideas into
the work, making the child sensitive, making the child have good creativity, and
expressing the work of art.
Art education is concerned with the beauty of one's creations (Eisner, 2008;
Macdonald, 2004). Through experience, children can pour their ideas into works of art.
Art education can make the right brain and left brain develop properly.
The development of children's creativity from an early age is very necessary and
the role of educators is very important. Efforts to increase creativity can be done by
educators. These various efforts refer to the nature of creativity, the role of educators in
developing creativity, and efforts to increase children's creativity.
At the beginning of 2020 Indonesia experienced the Covid 19 pandemic, this
pandemic was not only felt in Indonesia but throughout the world. This pandemic is
something that must be faced together. Community life activities are limited, starting
from sports, offices, tourism, and education is no exception. Education, which is very
close to interacting with each other, involving many educators and students in the
Eduvest Journal of Universal Studies

learning environment, must undergo changes. In terms of education, which used to be
done face-to-face, now it must be done online or online by utilizing internet facilities.
Online learning is one solution that inevitably has to be done in order to keep learning
going. This online school policy applies to all levels, from PAUD to tertiary institutions.
PAUD institutions which usually do a lot of stimulating development with face-
to-face services in the classroom must now be changed in their respective homes. Online
learning is a learning design system where the application uses the internet network and is
carried out indirectly between teachers and students. Online learning requires all parties
to work together in this learning such as parents, teachers and students. Teachers also
have to work more creatively and extra in the learning planning process such as preparing
materials, materials, methods, and RPPH, as well as evaluations used during the online
learning process that are different from before the pandemic.
With social restrictions and physical distancing, the government's ministry of
education and culture has banned schools from carrying out face-to-face learning and
turning it into online learning. As a teacher, teachers must continue to carry out their
obligations as teachers and ensure that children can obtain information and knowledge.
Teachers will certainly try to make what is taught can be understood and
understood through various ways, strategies, and methods. But in fact, not a few teachers
also experience obstacles in this online learning process. Most teachers have difficulty
making learning materials related to aspects of child development including cognitive,
language, social emotional, physical motoric, and art development with media in the form
of videos/slides/animations either due to inadequate facilities or limited teacher skills. In
a study (Novitasari, Prastyo, Iftitah, Reswari, & Fauziddin, 2021) the organization of
materials reached a percentage of 60.36%, this figure shows that there are still many
teachers who have not been able to organize materials for online learning. Online learning
activities carried out by teachers so far by giving assignments to students. This
assignment also applies to art learning. The teacher gives assignments in the form of
work-based activities for children.
Therefore, in this survey research, it is intended to find out art learning in
kindergartens in the city of Yogyakarta. The results are expected to serve as a basis for
formulating the basic needs for improving the quality of learning. The research results
can be used to improve educational praxis, formulate hypotheses, create initial
development plans, evaluate programs, and evaluate policies, especially art learning in
Kindergarten units.
RESEARCH METHOD
This type of research is a survey. The types of data collected are categorical and
numerical data. Categorical data includes demographic data of each kindergarten
institution. Numerical data includes the frequency of art learning. The data analysis
technique used a descriptive-quantitative approach. The research design includes
formulating problems, formulating hypotheses, compiling instrument grids, collecting
data, analyzing data, and drawing conclusions. The research population was 235
kindergarten institutions. The sample was 70 kindergarten institutions with a sampling
error of 5% (Tora Yamane, 1967). The sampling technique used proportional random
sampling per area of the city of Yogyakarta, Sleman Regency, Bantul Regency,
Gunungkidul Regency, Salatiga City, and Kebumen Regency. Data collection techniques
used closed questionnaires and open questionnaires. The data analysis technique used a
descriptive-quantitative approach for both categorical and numeric data types.

A Survey of Art Learning in Kindergarten during the Covid-19 Pandemic 161
Conclusion: Parents actively participate in taking learning media to school and
sending photos and videos of the learning process at home. Teachers have difficulty using
technology for early childhood art learning, and prefer to use face-to-face learning.
Figure 3. Parental Participation in Art Learning
Based on the qualitative analysis of Atlas.Ti, it was found that the assessment of
art learning carried out by teachers was the result of work (166), observation (76), and
performance (75). Parents of children prefer face-to-face learning rather than face-to-face.
The reason is that face-to-face learning is more varied, flexible, and children are taught
directly by the teacher, while face-to-face learning is constrained by the operation of
information technology, networks that are not strong, and cannot optimally accompany
their children. The hope in the new normal era is for children to return to school and carry
out activities like pre-covid: free to do activities in public places and face-to-face
learning. Art lessons in the new normal era that will be carried out by teachers are dance,
music, and fine arts.
CONCLUSION
Teachers plan art lessons, create media, and implement them during the
pandemic. However, the focus of learning is only on visual arts, while dance and music
are not carried out. The online learning mode most often used by teachers and parents of
children during the pandemic is WhatsApp. Meanwhile, audio media and children's
worksheets are sometimes used. The practice of learning art during the pandemic is for
parents to come to school to take LKA and the children do it in their respective homes.
The results of the children's work are returned by the parents to the school when they take
the next LKA assignment. The obstacle for the majority of parents in online learning is
that they cannot operate communication tools such as mobile phones for video
conferences, or the internet network is weak, or they do not have the tools to go online.
