Abstract

The ability of orientation and mobility (O&M) in children with visual impairment was still very low, so the dependence on sighted people was very high and this limited the activities of children with visual impairment themselves. On the other hand, the parents of these children did not have the ability on O&M and thus face difficulties in teaching their children to develop their O&M at home. Therefore, it was important to have an operational guideline to provide help for parents in teaching their children to be independent. The purpose of this study is to formulate a program for parents on how to teach O&M to their children. The study was carried out using the qualitative approach with the case study strategy; the in-depth interview, direct observation, participant observation, and documentation, were used to collect the data, and the O&M Attribute Checklist was adapted from Perkins Freedom Mobility LLC (2014) was used to portray the O&M competence profile of the parents. The subjects of this study were parents of children with visual impairment. The result of this study is in the form of a program formulation that was developed based on the analysis of assessment and field needs, including objectives, materials, methods, implementation procedures, and evaluations. The conclusion is that through the program guidelines that have been formulated, it is hoped that parents have the competence and will be easier to teach their children’s O&M skills so that children develop optimally. The implication is that families must be consistent in following the designed program guidelines.

Abstract

The ability to pronounce vowels in deaf students is still low, the indications are the occurrence of replacement, addition, and even the omission of phonemes. On the other hand, there is the unpreparedness of the teacher in setting the right model and method during articulation exercises, ignoring the basic receptive and expressive language skills of deaf students, allegedly as a form of teacher failure in practicing articulation both during individual and classical learning. For this reason, it is necessary to have a learning model that can accommodate the needs of deaf students to articulate correctly. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the SAVI (Somatic Auditory Visual Intellectual) learning model in improving the pronunciation of vowels in class III deaf students. The approach used in this research is quantitative with the type of experimental research in the form of SSR (Single Subject Research) with ABA design. Data was collected using Observation and Treatment Tests carried out on one deaf child. The results of the study were that in the baseline-1 condition, the intervention increased by a value of 73.33, the intervention in Baseline-2 decreased by a value of 60.83, and although the intervention in Baseline-2 experienced a decrease, the data obtained was much better than the baseline-1, which was 26.66. In conclusion, the Somatic, Auditory, Visual, and Intellectual learning model affects improving the pronunciation of vowels in Deaf Students. For this reason, teachers must pay attention to and develop sensory modalities in deaf students in an integrated and holistic way in learning articulation.

Abstract

Moderately retarded children have a problem with reading the start, especially in remembering form letter, mixing syllables into word, distinguishing sound, and understanding reading. In general, learning to read in special school is more emphasis on recitation the alphabet that will be repeated until the children can be remember the alphabet. Therefore, learning becomes monotonous and boring. For upgraded reading skills, then it’s need method that not emphasize children in learning, that is Glenn Doman method. Glenn Doman method is use to upgrading reading skills, because this method just stimulates children brain to develop without burdening children to read per syllable, but just seeing the word and listen the spell word. Moreover, this method was applied by playing so as make children more relax in studying. Generally, this research is aim for knowing the influence of usage Glenn Doman method to reading skills with the start moderately retarded children in 6th grade. The method that used is experiment method with types of SSR (single subject research).

Abstract

Autism is a condition with barriers to communication, interaction, behaviour, emotions, and sensory perception. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of early intervention carried out by parents for children with suspected autism based on the high-risk results of the M-Chat/R test conducted on children. This study uses a qualitative method in the form of a case study conducted on subjects who have the same background conditions and similar family circumstances. This research was conducted for two months. The data collection technique used was non-participant observation and interviews. The results showed significant results for the provision of early intervention with parental acceptance of the development of children with autistic tendencies. The environment, especially parents, has a very large role in the follow-up of early intervention and its success. The importance of proper early intervention will run effective if there is consistency in program delivery and good parental acceptance and optimization of the efforts.

Abstract

Reading is the basis for mastering various fields of study. Slow learners generally fail to understand basic lessons and concepts in academics, such as reading, writing, mathematics and language. This is because the above processes require a fairly complicated cognition process. So in overcoming obstacles to learning to read at the beginning of slow learners, a reading technique is needed that suits the needs of children. One of the reading techniques that can be used is the Montessori technique which is based on the Montessori method.The objectives of this study are as follows: (1) Knowing the stages of the process of developing an initial reading program for slow learners with Montessori techniques (2) Knowing the feasibility of developing an initial reading program for slow learners with Montessori techniques. The research method used in this study is a mixed research method. The final product of this study resulted in a beginning reading learning program with Montessori techniques consisting of products: (1) initial reading identification and assessment format (2) Learning program plan (3) Guidebook for teachers (4) Student worksheets (5) Module on Montessori reading techniques that have been modified for slow learner children. Based on research findings, data analysis and theoretical discussion, it can be concluded that the application of the beginning reading program in slow learners with Montessori techniques is feasible because it suits the needs of children and is able to improve initial reading skills. This program also helps teachers to know the stages of making individual learning programs for students with special needs.

Abstract

The problems of children with motor disabilities who experience expressive language difficulties need to get the right solution so that these difficulties can be overcome and get learning services that suit their abilities and needs. Based on these problems the researcher developed Flash Card media which has a very important role to make it easier for children to perceive something. One of the difficulties in learning to read technically is because it is difficult to think abstractly, so the teacher can work around this by using media that is in accordance with the goals and material being taught. The way to overcome these problems is to develop learning media that are suitable for children's abilities. Media is needed to make it easier for children with motor impairments to learn. The method used is a descriptive qualitative approach.
