Outcomes of individuals with intellectual disabilities are still very low, this is due to the lack of ability of self-determination of individuals with intellectual disabilities. While the learning practice of effective self-determination is still very limited. This study aims to identify an effective learning model of self-determination for individuals with intellectual disability. The results of this study can help practitioners to provide effective learning practices of selfdetermination for individuals with intellectual disabilities and can improve the outcomes of individual intellectual disability. There are six articles regarding the intervention of learning self-determination of individuals with intellectual disability that fit the criteria. Based on the analysis of qualitative descriptive data, found that a) there are several models suggested for practitioners / educators to use depending on the area and aspects of the elements of self-determination that want to be developed, b) Self-determination skills can be applied in all aspects of life, and can be given early. The implication for practitioners is that they can use effective learning models of self-determination in accordance with the areas and elements of self-determination behavior that are to be achieved for individuals with intellectual disability. Keywords— self-determination, learning model, intellectual

In essence, the needs of early childhood differ from each individual both in their physical motor development, language and their personal needs. Especially for those who have abnormalities in their development who need special treatment. Therefore inclusive education is important to provide a place for children with special needs to be able to socialize with regular children. This study aims to describe the implementation of inclusive education with children with special needs in kindergartens in Indonesia, to describe management of inclusive education management in kindergartens in Indonesia and to describe learning and learning tools used for early childhood with special needs in inclusive education. This research was conducted with descriptive approach research method using interview guidelines. Based on the results of the research that has been done, the implementation of inclusive education in this kindergarten has been carried out well in terms of implementation objectives, educational goals, facility readiness, school management, assessment and identification of children with special needs, assessment of learning outcomes and reporting. However, for the provision of special education teachers, this school does not have a special education teacher and still does not have a special curriculum for children with special needs. Keywords— inclusive education; children with special needs, kindergartens.

Active, creative, and innovative learning can produce students who can interact and compete globally including students with special needs. Students with special needs must be able to solve learning problems with critical thinking skills. However, teachers have not used alternative learning to improve critical thinking skills. One alternative learning that teachers can use is project-based learning. In this study, the method used is a systematic literature review on a national scale. The results of the survey stated that projectbased learning could improve the critical thinking skills of students with special needs. This learning involved students actively and adjusted to the characteristics of students. Factors supporting project-based learning for students with special needs are teachers explaining material in real terms, reliable infrastructure and regular learning patterns. While the inhibiting factor is that students are not familiar with the learning so that it requires time, guidance and modification in

This study explores the importance of the physical environment on several classrooms early childhood learning center in Sidoarjo, Indonesia. In this study obtained da ta interview with teachers (n=10) to understand the importance of the physical environment of the classroom at the learning center. Thematic analysis of the interviews revealed two main themes, namely the principle of the learning environment in the classroom (the principle of classroom arrangement of the environment and principles in children) and the design elements of the physical environment of children's classrooms (lighting, color combinations, doors and windows, sky and walls, furniture or furniture selection: table, chair, shelves). The findings reveal that the principle in terms of spatial arrangement may reflect the distinctive features of each learning center (eg IT centers are identical to technology and computers, religious centers are identical to religious, UKS (school health unit) centers are identical to the role playing doctor and pharmacies), provide opportunities for children's learning activities by providing APE (educational game tools) according to learning activities in the center, providing enough space so that children can move freely, not using a barrier in the center of the room to make it look wider and children can play freely. While the principles applied to children in the form of discipline, responsibility, character, independent, orderly, and polite in the classroom. Meanwhile, the elements of the physical classroom environment design with attention to lighting, color combinations, doors and windows, floors and walls as well as furniture selection (tables, chairs, shelves). Both things are done well so as to create a comfortable and safe atmosphere for the needs of children when involved learning in the classroom.

Sexual behavior shown in adolescence is a sign of children experiencing puberty. The task of child development in the face of adolescence is to begin to adjust the changes experienced in him with the surrounding environment. Changes when children experience puberty occur in physical, psychological, social, and emotional. In autistic children who have obstacles in the aspects of interaction, communication, and language patterns also need guidance so that they can adapt the environment. The purpose of this study was to identify sexual behavior that occurs in children with autism aged 12-18 years. This study was designed using a systematic review method based on a database of scientific journals. The data of this study were obtained from the results of 10 journal analyzes. Data analysis used in the study is descriptive analysis. The results showed that the presence of sexual behavior in autistic children who are experiencing puberty. Based on the analysis obtained, the sexual behavior shown by autistic children tends to experience irregularities, for example: some autistic teenagers who always pursue their friends, both men and women with autistic teenagers to channel their sexual drive. The effort to avoid inappropriate behavior is to identify observations that occur in the environment then provide appropriate, consistent, and involving children into positive activities so that children who experience puberty can control the sexual drive that arises. Keywords— identification, sexual behavior, autism,

The natural environment plays an important role for education especially in early childhood learning. Currently, learning is often used in early childhood learning such as learning group activities, activity angle, area and center. This recent learning almost ignores natural-based learning and tends to lead to intellectualism and verbalism. To address this problem, this study proposes natural-based learning to facilitate child development in order to develop optimally. The effectiveness of nature-based learning is evaluated by designing learning activities conducted by quasi-experimental method to 28 children. Two variables: Natural-based learning and cognitive development. The results show that there is a significant increase in early childhood cognitive development by 53.6%.

This study aims to describe the behaviour of children with intellectual disability when using public transportation by busway. This type of study is descriptive research. The subjects of this study were children with intellectual disability in SMALB XI in Yogyakarta. The techniques used in this study include observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis used in this study was descriptive statistics. The collected data was reduced, then the data was displayed, and finally the conclusions were drawn up. The results of this study show that the behaviours of children with intellectual disability when using public transportation by busway still need improvement. This is indicated by the behaviour of children with intellectual disability who have not been able to queue when buying tickets, waiting for a bus, entering the bus in order, and asking questions to the officers. Based on the results of the study, the expectation is that school can provide educational services related to the use of public transportation that is appropriate to the condition of children with intellectual disability and improve learning strategies so that they can understand better in using public transportation. In addition, the government also needs to improve accessibility so that children with intellectual disability can easily use public

Initial literacy ability is one of the abilities that become the obligation to begin to teach to early childhood. This program is very important as a trigger in predicting children's abilities in the future. Even recently, there are many children who do not have an interest in early literacy, besides teachers and parents at home must pay more attention to children's literacy skills. This study aims to increase the ability of early literacy in children with special needs in kindergarten. More specifically, this study describes (1) the conditions and characteristics of children with special needs, (2) initial literacy competencies, and (3) giving treatment to improve school readiness. The subjects of this study were 8 children with special needs from inclusion kindergarten schools in Yogyakarta. This research was conducted with descriptive qualitative research methods using interview guidelines. The results showed that the intervention had a positive effect on children's literacy skills. The treatment also has an indirect effect on the class teacher. Keywords— inclusive education; children with special needs, kindergartens.
