Abstract

Character education in special schools is vital for developing students' personality, independence, and social skills. However, the 2024 Education Report Card indicates that student character development and curriculum management remain at the medium and developmental stages, suggesting a gap between ideal education goals and actual implementation. This study explores the application of the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) quality management cycle in managing the character curriculum. Using a qualitative case study approach, the research involved in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and document analysis. Findings reveal that the Plan stage is collaboratively and adaptively implemented through a thematic approach with teachers and parents. The Do stage focuses on instilling character values through practice and teacher role modeling. The Check stage involves reflective supervision and ongoing evaluations, while the Act stage emphasizes internal teacher training and curriculum revisions based on field data. The PDCA cycle has proven effective in creating a responsive, reflective, and sustainable character curriculum system. This study provides valuable insights for special education institutions aiming to develop a more effective and context-specific curriculum management system.

Abstract

Purpose – This study examines the role of humanistic academic supervision in improving the quality of learning at SLB At-Turmudzi 1 Malangbong, Garut. Although inclusive education is widely discussed, most supervision models are still procedural and evaluative in nature, ignoring the reflective and emotional needs of teachers. This study aims to fill this gap by exploring how humanistic supervision supports professional growth and inclusive practices.Method – Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through in-depth observations, semi-structured interviews with the principal and ten special education teachers, and document analysis. Data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model with triangulation to ensure validity. Findings – The study found that humanistic supervision transformed teachers' attitudes from passive and anxious to open and reflective. Teachers designed differentiated lesson plans responsive to students’ cognitive and sensory needs, utilized multisensory media (such as braille cards, tactile props, and interactive audio), and conducted functional assessments. A collaborative professional culture emerged, shown through regular reflective forums and peer learning. Student engagement also improved, marked by greater participation and communication confidence, especially among students with disabilities. Research Implications – The study highlights the importance of adopting humanistic, reflective supervision models that position teachers as learning partners. Such approaches can strengthen inclusive practices and improve learning quality in special education contexts, offering a transformative alternative to conventional evaluative models.
