Abstract

Special Needs Students (MBK) in secondary schools have little opportunity to learn vocational skills especially in the field of wooden furniture manufacturing because of the inability of students to do the work of carpentry. The purpose of this study is to develop the Kit (Smart Cot) as a Teaching Aid (ABM) for the new subject of Furniture Manufacturing Basics, which was introduced by the Ministry of Education specifically for students with special needs in the form of Special Education Integration Program (PPKI) learning problem. The design of this study uses qualitative methods including interview instruments, observations and checklist forms that were conducted throughout the Learning And Moderning process (Pdpc) by using the Kit (Smart Cot) on the syllabus of Furniture Manufacturing Basics. This study involved 9 pupils of PPKI as respondents of the study, especially students in the field of wood furniture manufacturing at a national secondary school in Selangor. Case studies are used by researchers for being able to exceed quantitative, statistical decisions and understand the nature of the various perspectives. All elements will be evaluated based on the process of interviewing, observations and review forms. Then the information is collected in written form. Researchers recommend that the ABM kit (Smart Cot) be used by teachers in the Pdpc process for the basics of Furniture Manufacturing Basics for special needs students in order to improve the achievement performance and mastery of the craftsmanship of wooden furniture. © 2019 Primrose Hall Publishing Group.
