Abstract

The shortage of Special Education Teachers (SET) relative to Students with Special Educational Needs (SEN) in Central Kalimantan Province remains a critical concern. The current SET–SEN ratio of 1:11, significantly below the national standard of 1:5, undermines equitable access to quality education for SEN students. This study examines the underlying dynamics and structural causes of this imbalance in public special schools (SLBN). A qualitative design was employed, with data collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis across selected SLBNs and relevant government institutions. Data were analyzed thematically, supported by source triangulation, member checking, audit trails, and peer debriefing to ensure rigor and credibility. The findings reveal that the SET shortage is a systemic and multidimensional issue driven by three interrelated factors: unsystematic, non–data-driven workforce planning; the absence of local undergraduate programs in special education; and limited interest among non-local applicants. These factors interact across policy, institutional, and individual levels, weakening the regional SET ecosystem. Peer debriefing further indicates that the issue reflects fragmented, cross-sectoral governance. Addressing the SET shortage requires a coordinated, collaborative governance approach. A four-stage framework—preparation, recruitment, placement, and continuous professional development (CPD)—is proposed to strengthen the SET ecosystem. Policy redesign that institutionalizes cross-sector collaboration is essential to ensure the sustainable and equitable fulfillment of SEN students’ educational rights.

Abstract

Innovation in science learning is highly recommended by various studies and education experts. Through this learning innovation, teachers create learning that facilitates students' curiosity by getting them involved in learning, which ultimately helps them understand science in depth. However, the current trend is that science classes "fail" to create innovative learning that can foster students' interest in science, so that many students do not understand science well. This research aims to determine the impact of flipped classroom learning on simple harmonic motion material assisted by computer simulations on students' conceptual understanding. A pre-experiment with a one-group pretest-posttest design was used in this research. Class X of the MIPA program was chosen as the experimental object in this research, and 30 students were used as samples. The test given is a multiple-choice test with explanations. The results showed that the average post-test score was better than the pre-test. The N-gain score is 0.79, which indicates that there is an increase in students' understanding in the high category. This shows that flipped classroom learning assisted by computer simulations can increase students' understanding of the concept of simple harmonic motion. By implementing computer simulation activities that are integrated into flipped classroom learning, learning alternatives can be enriched to help students understand science.
