Abstract

Integration of technology in science instruction in special education context can be done within the technological, pedagogical, and content knowledge (TPACK) framework. Therefore, special education teachers are expected to have a good level of TPACK. This study aimed to explore the level of teachers TPACK in science instruction for students with special needs and to compare the TPACK level of teachers based on their gender. This research used a quantitative approach with survey method. The respondents of this study were special education teachers (N= 44). The data collection method was through a survey using the TPACK survey instrument. The validation result used the Pearson Correlation showed value per statement ranging from 0.504 - 0.904. Reliability showed in the Cronbach's coefficient Alpha for internal consistency value of 0.856 (high). The data analysis technique used was the descriptive statistical analysis technique and the independent sample t test. The results showed that the total average of all TPACK domain is concluded in good category with mean score 81.29. The t test calculation showed that the t value (0.123) is less than the critical t value in the t table (2.085). The p value obtained was 0.90, greater than 0.05. Therefore, Ho is accepted. The issue of gender equality that has begun to be implemented in Indonesia can be the reason for the loss of technological mastery differences. In conclusion, TPACK mastery of special education teachers in science instruction was not differentiated by teacher gender with p>0.05.

Abstract

This research examined the knowledge and skills of special education teachers within the context of inclusive education in Indonesia. Employing a quantitative survey approach, the study aimed to determine whether a statistically significant disparity existed between these two variables. The data collection technique utilized included knowledge tests and performance assessments, involving 637 participants from 26 districts/cities. The data analysis technique employed was the t-test using SPSS. The research findings indicated that the mean knowledge score (51.85) was lower than the mean skill score (73.90). The t-test result showed a value of -29.87 with p-value <0.05, indicating a significant difference between the knowledge and skill scores. Several factors contributed to the higher skill scores, including limited access to specialized training and professional development, curriculum structures prioritizing skill-based coursework, and the unique demands of inclusive education settings.

Abstract

Children with special needs often face complex challenges beyond their primary disability. These challenges can significantly impact their overall well-being and academic performance. This study aimed to assess the provision of guidance and counseling services for ABK in inclusive primary schools in Surakarta, Indonesia. A survey involving 10 inclusive primary schools was conducted, utilizing questionnaires and semi-structured interviews with teachers and parents. Data analysis employed descriptive analysis of both quantitative and qualitative data. The findings indicate that while most inclusive primary schools in Surakarta offer guidance and counseling services, these services are often limited by factors such as a lack of specialized personnel, inadequate infrastructure, and insufficient time allocation. Additionally, the integration of guidance and counseling services into classroom activities can be challenging due to diverse student needs. To enhance the effectiveness of guidance and counseling services for ABK, it is crucial to provide adequate training for teachers, allocate dedicated time and space for these services, and foster strong collaboration between schools, families, and community organizations.

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menelaah relevansi pembelajaran vokasional dengan pendidikan kewirausahaan bagi peserta didik penyandang disabilitas berdasarkan dari pengalaman guru SLB dan SMK inklusi di Solo Raya. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif jenis studi kasus. Subyek penelitian terdiri dari 20 guru keterampilan/ vokasional di SLB dan SMK inklusi di solo raya yang pernah mengajar siswa disabilitas. Teknik pengumpulan data yang digunakan yaitu focus group discussion (FGD). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa praktik pendidikan vokasional sudah berjalan bertahap sejak kelas 7 di SLB dan berlanjut di SMK, dengan penyesuaian individual terhadap kondisi fisik-kognitif siswa; produk vokasi kerap berpotensi ekonomis (diproduksi, dipasarkan, atau dijadikan modal magang dan kerja), namun dimensi literasi kewirausahaan belum terstruktur dalam kurikulum. Perlu adanya kerangka integrasi literasi kewirausahaan langsung di dalam unit vokasi, meliputi pencatatan biaya, penetapan harga, transaksi, dan pengelolaan hasil, sebagai jalan menuju kemandirian finansial siswa disabilitas. Kata kunci: pendidikan kewirausahaan, siswa disabilitas, pembelajaran vokasional

Abstract

Pendidikan tinggi inklusif tidak hanya menuntut ketersediaan pembelajaran yang adil, tetapi juga sarana dan prasarana yang ramah bagi penyandang disabilitas. Artikel ini membahas kondisi aktual, tantangan, serta roadmap pengembangan fasilitas aksesibel di Universitas Sebelas Maret (UNS) hingga tahun 2028. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif deskriptif, penelitian memetakan enam kategori sarana prasarana aksesibel: parkir difabel, guiding block, ramp, toilet difabel, lift, dan labelisasi braille pada ruang strategis, berdasarkan inventarisasi fasilitas di tingkat fakultas. Hasil analisis menunjukkan adanya kesenjangan signifikan, di mana sebagian besar fakultas masih belum memenuhi standar teknis Permen PUPR No. 14 Tahun 2017. Temuan ini menegaskan bahwa penyediaan fasilitas aksesibel merupakan fondasi utama bagi keterlibatan mahasiswa difabel, sementara integrasi teknologi kampus cerdas menjadi fase lanjutan untuk memperkuat inklusivitas berkelanjutan. Roadmap pengembangan yang disusun menegaskan pentingnya tahapan strategis mulai dari penyediaan infrastruktur dasar (2025), konstruksi permanen dan digitalisasi awal (2026), integrasi antar-fakultas (2027), hingga implementasi smart facilities (2028). Implikasi praktisnya, UNS perlu menata prioritas pembangunan secara bertahap, melibatkan partisipasi mahasiswa penyandang disabilitas, serta memperkuat komitmen kelembagaan. Secara akademis, penelitian ini memperkaya literatur tentang manajemen kampus inklusif di Indonesia dan dapat menjadi model bagi perguruan tinggi lain dalam mewujudkan lingkungan pendidikan tinggi yang adil, setara, dan berkelanjutan
