Abstract

Simple technology is a learning medium or program that contains a combination of images, sounds and animations in an integrated and synergistic manner with the help of computer devices and devices to achieve learning goals in the classroom. To understand more deeply related to simple technology in early childhood learning, this article with systematic literature review method will review the application of simple technology in early childhood in terms of benefits, weaknesses, and advantages. The results of this study are intended as a guide for teachers as field practitioners to be more creative and innovative in utilizing existing resources but still in accordance with the needs of the learning process and the development of the times. Furthermore, this research is also useful for policymakers in the field of education in order to provide supporting infrastructure for early childhood education according to learning needs. The results showed that simple technology has positive benefits for children's development, because children can learn by using their senses of vision and hearing, making it easier to learn. The advantages of simple technology in Early Childhood Education (ECE) make the learning process more interesting and fun and children become more understanding, feeling, growing their attention, abilities and skills towards the learning material delivered by teachers in class. Meanwhile, in the application of simple technology, weaknesses are also found, namely the lack of ability of teachers to master technology in carrying out learning in class, so that the application of simple technology has not been carried out optimally.
