The The Function Of Educators In Social Emotional Development At An Early Age
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine the role of the teacher in developing
the social emotions of early childhood. The type of research used in this study is a
literature study. Literature study is a method used to collect data or sources
related to the topic raised in a study. The results of this study indicate that ideally
an early childhood child has a sense of empathy for his friends, likes to share, help
and cooperate. But seen in the current phenomenon, there are still many young
children who are not sensitive to their environment, do not like to work together
with friends. If this is allowed and there is no initiative from educators or parents to
develop children's social and emotional development, then children can become
anti-social and their emotional social development needs to be handled by the
school and parents of early childhood.
