Abstract

Education for children with special needs in Indonesia continues to face numerous challenges. Despite the increasing number of children with disabilities, resources to meet the needs of schools and institutions remain inadequate. This study aims to analyze the training needs of teaching staff to support the handling of children with disabilities at Our Dream Indonesia. The research is a case study with a qualitative descriptive approach. The study involved three managers and 21 accompanying teachers as informants. Open-ended questionnaires and interview forms were used as instruments. Qualitative descriptive analysis was employed as the data analysis technique. The collected data was divided into three parts: data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results indicated that children with disabilities at Our Dream Indonesia have diverse characteristics, including varying cognitive, physical, and social-emotional abilities. The teaching staff at Our Dream Indonesia requires training in several areas, including learning strategies for children with disabilities, educational technology, collaboration with parents and professionals, behavior management for children with disabilities, and implementation of the ABA method. The achievement of training can be measured through various methods, such as observation, tests, portfolios, and feedback. Therefore, Our Dream Indonesia should invest in training and professional development for teaching staff to ensure that children with disabilities receive a quality education that meets their needs.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the readiness of online courses offered by the ICE Institute based on seven quality assurance dimensions developed through ICE-I QAT. These seven dimensions include course information, instructor information, technology and learning tools, learning materials, interaction, assessment, and evaluation. The method used was descriptive quantitative by using instrument quality assurance criteria was developed by ICE-I. Sample of this research were 77 courses and were curated by the partner universities collaborating with the ICE Institute in 2024. The results show variability in the readiness levels of the courses across each dimension. For example, in the course information dimension, only 45 out of 77 courses met the minimum standards, while in the assessment dimension, only 23 courses met the standards. These findings indicate that many courses still need quality improvement, particularly in learning materials, interaction, and assessment. The discussion highlights the importance of providing clear information, effective use of learning technology, and comprehensive instructional materials to enhance student engagement and course completion. The study concludes that improving the quality of online courses is essential to support effective and meaningful distance learning at the ICE Institute.
