Abstract

The phenomenon of speech delay is increasingly prevalent in the realm of child development. It is estimated that 7% of young children experience language delay issues. Children with speech delay require a psychological approach that enhances their self-confidence. Continuous stimulation and guidance are essential, both at home from parents and at school from teachers. One effective tool for this purpose is the “Berka” (Word Learning) Application based on Augmented Reality, which is both attractive and interactive. This tool is crucial in helping children comprehend vocabulary accurately and effectively.The objective of this research is to analyze the influence of the “Berka” Application based on Augmented Reality in introducing vocabulary to children with speech delay and to demonstrate the anticipated benefits of aiding these children in understanding and using vocabulary within sentences at the Early Childhood Education (PAUD) level. This study adopts a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design, specifically the Nonequivalent Control Design. Data collection employs observation and documentation techniques. The sample consists of 36 children aged 4-6 years from PAUD Kharisma Sidoarjo. The experimental group comprises 18 children, while the control group consists of 18 children. Data analysis utilizes the Mann Whitney U-test. The results of this analysis reveal that the U-test statistic value is significantly greater than the critical value, confirming the acceptance of the alternative hypothesis (Ha). Based on the data analysis, it can be concluded that the usage of the “Berka” Application based on Augmented Reality has a positive impact on introducing vocabulary to children with speech delay.
