Modelling Techniques of Limited Self-care Children with Special Needs: Case Study Research
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Education is an effort made by every individual, including children with special needs. Children with special needs tend to have unique characteristics but need to get an education and teaching that suits their needs. This need occurs in children with disabilities who have difficulty in doing self-help. The limitations of self-help, which tend to be assisted by people around them, require special attention so that children have the ability to take care of themselves. The purpose of this study was to identify how modeling technique interventions affect the self-reliance of students with special needs. A qualitative approach was used through observation, interviews, and psychological tests. The results obtained are that FMI tends to have intellectual disabilities and self-help is an intervention that can be done. The intervention was carried out with modeling techniques over five sessions in 15 days focussing on going to school. The results show that FMI has improved their understanding of self-help when it comes to going to school although they still require help and are unable to do so independently.
