Abstract

Students with physical disabilities experience limitations in their motor skills, which impact their daily activities and independence. This situation demands a planned and structured movement development program in Special Needs Schools (SLB). In its implementation, teachers play a crucial role not only as instructors but also as facilitators, guides, and evaluators in developing students' motor skills. This study aims to describe the role of teachers in implementing a movement development program for students with physical disabilities in SLB. The study used a qualitative approach with a descriptive method. Data collection techniques included observation, interviews, and documentation. The results indicate that the teachers' role in the movement development program includes program planning based on student needs assessments, gradual and continuous implementation of movement exercises, and evaluation of students' motor development and independence. Furthermore, the success of the movement development program is influenced by teacher competence, school environmental support, and parental involvement. Therefore, the teacher's role is a key factor in optimizing the implementation of the movement development program to improve the motor skills and independence of students with physical disabilities.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the implementation of the self-development program for autistic children at Sidikalang State Special School (SLB Negeri), including the teaching strategies applied, challenges encountered, and efforts undertaken to address those challenges. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, with teachers and autistic students serving as research subjects. Data were collected through observations and in-depth interviews and analyzed using descriptive techniques. The findings reveal that the self-development program is systematically integrated into scheduled learning activities to foster students’ independence in daily living skills. Teachers implement various strategies, including structured teaching, visual media, modeling, repetitive practice, positive reinforcement, and collaboration with parents. The implementation process, however, faces several challenges, such as difficulties in understanding instructions, limited attention span, repetitive behaviors, low motivation, and inadequate facilities. To overcome these barriers, teachers simplify instructions, provide direct demonstrations, utilize engaging visual media, consistently reinforce positive behaviors, and strengthen communication with parents. The study concludes that a structured and consistent self-development program supported by appropriate instructional strategies and active parental involvement can effectively enhance the independence of autistic children in performing daily activities.
