Abstract

This research discusses innovative strategies in building self-confident character in children with special needs through sports activities at the Karawang Regency State Special School. Using a qualitative approach, this research reveals the planning, process, obstacles and evaluation of the internalization of character values in children with special needs. Teachers play an active role in identifying character values, preparing plans, and integrating them into the hidden curriculum. Even though evaluations tend to be subjective, sports activities at the Karawang Regency State Special School have been proven to have a positive impact on character development, especially in the aspects of adaptation, communication and interaction. Obstacles involve diverse student characteristics and sports teacher limitations. This research contributes to further understanding of character formation in children with special needs and provides recommendations for increasing the effectiveness of the sports curriculum in the context of character education.

Abstract

This study aims to design picture books on endemic animals based on Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) values to foster global citizenship character among junior high school students. Conducted at SMP Negeri 2 Pangenan and Bandung Independent School, the research involved 120 seventh-grade students in the Civics Education subject. Using the Research and Development (R&D) methodology, the study followed a systematic process of designing, developing, and validating the educational materials to ensure alignment with SDG values, particularly those promoting environmental sustainability and global responsibility. The findings indicate that the picture books not only engaged students effectively but also facilitated a deeper understanding of global citizenship through relatable local contexts. Students demonstrated an increased awareness of biodiversity and the importance of conserving endemic species as part of their civic responsibilities. The study contributes to educational literature by highlighting the potential of SDG-based picture books as impactful tools for character education, aligning with both national and international educational goals. This research offers a model for integrating global issues into local curricula, promoting a more comprehensive approach to character development that aligns with global citizenship objectives. The outcomes suggest that such materials can be beneficial in other educational settings to cultivate an appreciation for environmental stewardship and global interconnectedness among young learners.
