Abstract

This current study aimed at: 1) Explaining the teachers’ understanding on the gender concept in Early Childhood Education; 2) exploring the instructional strategies for Early Childhood Education; and 3) analyzing gender sensitivity in Early Childhood Education. This study employed a qualitative research approach by means of descriptive analysis. There were two data required to support this study, primary and secondary data. Early Childhood Educations in Malang City were selected as the subjects of this study. To collect the data, observation, interview, and documentation were conducted. Meanwhile, for data analysis, a descriptive-qualitative approach was chosen to execute, assisted by Harvard technique of analysis. This study has revealed that: 1) the teachers still lack understanding on the gender concept in the Early Childhood Education; 2) piloting any dissemination and training in respect to gender for the stakeholders and teachers has been considered to be the best instructional strategy to be implemented in the Early Childhood Education; and 3) gender sensitivity in the Early Childhood Education has been shown to be relatively low that the instructional activities have not characterized any gender-equality atmosphere.
