Abstract The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic is felt by
all levels of society and all aspects of life, including early
childhood education. Educational units must have the
readiness of human resources in the form of educators and
education staff as well as the readiness of technology
facilities so that the learning process can be carried out
effectively and efficiently. However, not all PAUD units are
able to carry out internet-based learning which is called e-
learning. This study aims to provide assistance in
implementing a fun E-Learning for PAUD teachers in
Argasunya Village, Cirebon City. This study uses a qualitative
method. The community service steps taken are through
webinars, question and answer and discussion. The results
of this study can be concluded that the understanding of
participants in implementing e-learning increases through
examples of fun activities that parents can do at home so
that they can stimulate all aspects of child development.
Introduction
Online learning is called internet-based technology, the web is used to introduce
learning materials (Arsyad, 2011). E-learning requires a computer in the delivery
of learning that uses a central guide with a distance that can be inserted with text,
graphics, animation, audio and video simulations (Abdullah, 2020). Information
has a positive impact on educational development, including formal, non-formal
and informal education (Triyono, 2019). Educational units can take advantage of
technological facilities from simple to complex, such as computers and the
internet (Aditiya, 2020). E learning is basically an innovation in conventional forms
of learning such as a digital format that can be developed from simple, personal,
fast and entertaining elements that can make students feel like they are in the
classroom at when learning from home (Silahuddin, 2015).

Educational institutions compete to cope with developments in information and
communication technology for schools / madrasahs from high school to high
levels. Implementation of e-learning under various names, including online
learning, online learning systems, virtual learning, or ICT-based learning systems.
The application of the e-learning system requires teachers and lecturers who are
proficient in the application of (Siahaan, Murniarti, & Simbolon, 2021) information
and communication technology.
Learning activities through the internet and websites can be used freely as open
source products, an open source based e learning system can improve the
efficiency and performance of teachers on innovative teaching materials such as
digital-based student worksheets (Suyanto, 2005). In other words, education has
evolved various elements, namely planning, strategy, processes, media and
resources (Abdullah, 2019). The conventional face-to-face learning process
becomes e learning which requires professionalism from educators, good
communication with parents of students and the readiness of gadget device
facilities equipped with the internet (Rahmawati & Yulianti, 2020).
Teachers are made easy because using these features is easy and student-friendly.
Teachers can make learning innovations and teaching materials that are better
understood by students without having to come to schools (Sahlani, Sopiansyah,
& Agung, 2020). The use of learning technology uses internet-based learning in its
processes using web applications, google class, edmodo, and whtasapp. These
applications are very easy to access and useful in online learning, although there
are still obstacles in learning, namely teachers who have not mastered learning
technology, students who do not have gadgets, learning processes that are
difficult to monitor properly and assignment collection is often not on time
(Almah, Thohari, & Lismanda, 2020).
In distance learning using WhatsApp groups to give assignments to children, the
assignments given are in the form of voice recordings, videos, pictures. The child
collects assignments to the teacher using voice recordings, videos, pictures, etc.
The teacher gives value as feedback. Giving assignments based on scientific
literacy on the topic of the 2019 coronavirus disease (Covid 19). In elementary
school children there are still many children who do not understand more
complete information about Covid 19, based on the explanatory text presented by
students, it is difficult to conclude which parts of the body are generally targeted
by the Covid 19 (Setiawan & Mufassaroh, 2020) attack.
From the results of the above research, it is known that the applications that are
chosen as e-learning media are WhatsApp, Google Class, Web, Videocall, Zoom
and Edmodo. The use of this application is based on the reason that it is easy and
friendly to both teachers and students. Teaching materials can be clearly

conveyed and modified to be more innovative, fun through the insertion of
images, photos, videos and sounds.(Nurkolis & Muhdi, 2020)
All levels of society are not immune from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic,
both parents, teachers and the learning process, on parents, it has an impact on
the hassle of guiding children in children's learning at home, especially if you have
more than one child, the additional cost for purchasing quotas is felt. when e
learning is carried out. The impact felt by the teacher was on teaching activities
carried out from home by preparing teaching materials every day through gadgets
and the internet. The impact on the implementation of learning is the
conventional change into e learning (Suryaman et al., 2020).
The challenges experienced in the e learning process are numerous, seen from the
point of view of educators, education staff and parents of students. Areas that are
difficult to get a stable and adequate internet network, the unpreparedness of the
teaching staff in implementing the e learning curriculum so that learning is not
achieved properly (Al Qolbi, 2019). Therefore, the learning that is carried out does
not emphasize the achievement of learning but by providing meaningful learning
for living in pandemic period. (RI, Lt, & Subroto, 2020)
Another problem faced in learning in learning is the lack of teacher response to
overcome protests from parents who regret that during this pandemic, learning is
only given with a lot of assignments. Teachers realize that they are not ready for
the e learning process, so they need cooperation with colleagues, guardians,
students and are supported by technology and internet facilities so that the
teacher is able to choose a fun learning strategy (Suyanto, 2005).
Technological developments require the education sector to continue to improve
the quality of the use of information technology in learning. (Sampurno,
Maulidiyah, & Puspitaningrum, 2015) Computer technology-based learning media
such as Moodle is a medium that is applied as needed. Moodle is a web-based,
object-oriented dynamic learning model. The Moodle application can help
students gain more knowledge through the form of uploading optical learning
materials through the Moodle function, innovative worksheets that improve the
abilities of (Setiawan & Mufassaroh, 2020) students.
Parenting learning or parenting learning must be pursued because of the impact
that occurs. Parents must be able to understand children's thinking and learning
styles as a provision for mentoring children during e-learning (Lailasari, 2019).
Nowadays sophisticated technology can provide unlimited access and obtain all
kinds of educational information. Parents have the opportunity to study
independently and find out as much information as possible about parenting
materials. This convenient method needs to be used to explore the learning
experience as easily as possible to do nurture and nurture for children (Saepudin
& Ulfah, 2015). One of the complexities of using e learning is through webinars

which aim to provide facilities for parents to study independently anywhere,
anytime and anywhere. The continuous learning process will have a significant
impact on learning outcomes and achieving learning goals.
Obstacles faced by PAUD teachers in Argasunya Village in the e-learning process
are unpreparedness in applying gadgets, google classroom, google meet, zoom
meet (Sukirwan, 2020). Teachers are not yet proficient in operating devices such
as computers and props, and not all PAUD have computer equipment, teachers
still limited in the manufacture of computer-based teaching materials and their
implementation. Efforts to educate PAUD teachers in improving the competence
of implementing e learning through webinars with the theme of implementing e
lerning during a pandemic are acts of community service in implementing the
tridharma of higher education (Sukirwan, 2020).
