<![CDATA[Abstract: Teachers at SD Negeri Sambirejo 01 and 02 in Desa Sambirejo, Kabupaten Semarang, had no experience in teaching students with special needs. Their understanding of inclusive education, initial assessment, adaptive learning strategies, and inclusive classroom management was also limited. This community service program aimed to strengthen teachers’ conceptual understanding and initial readiness to implement adaptive learning in inclusive classrooms. Fifteen of the 16 teachers attended a one-day training. The training comprised material presentations, case discussions, practice in developing simple assessments, and discussions of adaptive learning strategies and inclusive classroom management. Program outcomes were evaluated using a conceptual understanding pretest-posttest and a self-report questionnaire. The mean conceptual understanding score increased significantly from 13.27 to 14.40 (t = -3.90, p = .002). For simple assessment procedures, 60% of participants reported a fairly clear understanding and 40% a very clear understanding. For adaptive learning strategies and inclusive classroom management, 20% rated the material as clear and 80% as very clear. The program may serve as a teacher capacity-building model in areas with limited support for inclusive education.
