Abstract

Children with special needs face unique challenges in learning and assessment, and traditional test-based methods often fail to capture their full cognitive and social abilities. This research aims to design and validate a non-test evaluation model based on authentic assessment principles to measure the cognitive and social development of children with special needs. Using a Research and Development (R&D) approach guided by Richey and Klein’s model, the study proceeded through three phases: model development, expert validation, and implementation. Data were collected through expert validation sheets and perception questionnaires involving teachers, therapists, and parents, analyzed both qualitatively and quantitatively. The validation results showed that the developed model achieved a “very valid” category across all indicators, demonstrating strong theoretical grounding, practical relevance, and contextual suitability. Respondent perceptions were predominantly positive, with 80% agreeing on the model’s clarity, usefulness, and applicability in inclusive educational settings. The model effectively integrates real-life contexts and interdisciplinary collaboration, providing a holistic framework for assessing both cognitive and social growth. In conclusion, this authentic, non-test-based model offers a practical and inclusive alternative for evaluating children with special needs, bridging the gap between assessment theory and classroom practice.
