Abstract

Developing individuals with independent personal characteristics has become one of the primary goals of education in contemporary Indonesia. Numerous studies have demonstrated that daily activity skill contributes positively to both academic achievement and logical thinking abilities. The objective of fostering daily activity skills is not only directed toward students in general but also toward students with special needs, commonly referred to as Children with Special Needs (CWSN). Through the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology, the Indonesian government encourages the development of independent individuals among all students in both mainstream and special education settings. This study aims to examine how teachers in special schools (SLB) develop independent character among students with special needs, particularly students with ASD (Autism Spectrum Autism). The focus on students with ASD is motivated by the continuously increasing prevalence of autism spectrum disorders worldwide, including in Indonesia. This research employed a qualitative approach and was conducted at a special school in Deli Serdang Regency. The findings indicate that teachers adapted and further developed the basic independence skills framework proposed by James W. Partington and Michael Mueller, tailoring its implementation to the individual characteristics and needs of their students. Conclusion: The development of daily living skills for students with autism must consider the unique characteristics of each individual, particularly those in phase A. Basic communication skills can be integrated with other daily living skills activities, and the learning process is more effective when implemented through direct practice and gradual prompting techniques.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of an intervention using spatial illustration media in the form of room illustrations with objects inside them on improving the independence skills of children with special needs (CwSN) with autism spectrum disorder at the elementary level (Phase A) of a Special School in Deliserdang, North Sumatra, Indonesia. The study was conducted at a Special School using a mixed-methods approach involving 13 children as subjects, regardless of gender or age. The intervention was carried out over three weeks, with 60 minutes of intervention per week, through activities matching objects with their corresponding rooms. Quantitative data were analyzed using simple linear regression, showing that students’ independence scores increased by an average of 1.192 points each week. Interview data collected from parents supported these findings, indicating that the skills practiced in class began to be applied in daily life at home, such as placing shoes on the rack or taking books independently. Thus, it can be concluded that routine interventions using spatial illustration media have a positive effect on the independence skills of children with autism spectrum disorder, particularly at the elementary level of Special Schools.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the direct and indirect influence of the role of parents, the role of lecturers, and learning motivation on the learning outcomes of Elementary School Teacher Education (PGSD) students at UHKBPNP using the Path Analysis method. Data processing was carried out using the SPSS program. The prerequisite test showed that the model met the assumption of normality and was free from multicollinearity. The findings showed: (1) The role of parents did not have a significant direct influence on learning outcomes. (2) The role of lecturers had a significant direct influence on learning outcomes. (3) Learning motivation had a significant direct influence on learning outcomes. Furthermore, the analysis revealed that the role of parents and the role of lecturers indirectly influenced learning outcomes significantly through the mediating role of learning motivation. This study concluded that learning motivation functions as a central psychological mechanism that bridges the influence of environmental factors (the role of parents and lecturers) on improving student learning outcomes. Environmental support becomes optimal only when it succeeds in fostering strong internal motivation in students.
