Abstract

This training aims to enhance the competencies of Special Education Teachers in assisting students with special needs at SMP Muhammadiyah 1 Kartasura. The program was conducted over two days and included material delivery, practical exercises in identifying special needs, and communication simulations in the classroom. The training participants, consisting of five special education teachers, were given pre-tests and post-tests to measure their improvement in understanding and skills. The results showed significant progress in observation, communication, and identifying special needs. Furthermore, interactive discussions during the training provided a platform for participants to share experiences and solutions to challenges in assisting Special Needs. This training serves as a strategic step in supporting the implementation of inclusive education, with the expectation that special education teachers can apply the skills learned to create a supportive and inclusive learning environment for special needs development.

Abstract

Indonesia faces a serious literacy crisis, as evidenced by the 2022 PISA data, which places the country at 70th out of 81 nations. The main challenges include low reading interest among children, limited access to quality books, and less effective teaching methods. This article explores the read aloud technique as a solution to enhance children's literacy through an engaging and interactive reading experience. This technique is discussed in the context of Albert Bandura's Social Cognitive Theory, which emphasizes the roles of observation, modeling, and reinforcement in the learning process. Through the Read Aloud Goes to School program at SD Negeri Gurawan, Surakarta, read aloud has not only succeeded in fostering a love for reading but also integrated literacy with education on global issues, such as climate change, using the book Keluarga Panik. This article concludes that read aloud is a game changer in efforts to improve literacy in Indonesia. With consistent implementation and community involvement, this technique holds great potential to create a generation of critical readers who care about the future.
