This paper is designed to address several critical issues that pertain to the development of longitudinal curricular content for use with severely handicapped students. More specifically, to emphasize: (a) the importance of the principle of partial participation; (b) the need to create a wide variety of adaptations that might allow severely handicapped students at least to participate in many environments and activities from which they have been excluded; and (c) a rationale for using current and subsequent environment orientations and ecological inventory strategies in curriculum development processes. In addition, the authors present a cursory example of how ecological inventory strategies and current and subsequent environment orientations might be combined to generate chrononogical age appropriate curricular content.

Diklat berbasis kompetensi diselenggarakan untuk mengatasi diskrepansi kompetensi PNS agar kemampuan PNS lulusan diklat sesuai dengan kompetensi yang diharapkan. Salah satu komponen dalam diklat berbasis kompetensi adalah kurikulum yang berbasis kompetensi berdasar pada kebutuhan akan kompetensi peserta diklat.

This paper presents the rationale and structure for a curriculum model for educating the severely handicapped. The model combines the advantages of the two logics used up to this point in developing curricula: the developmental/cognitive logic and the remedial/behavioral logic. It provides for sequencing of skills to be taught across and within levels of difficulty and across six content domains: self-help skills, sensory-motor skills, socialization, language skills, academic skills, and vocational preparation. Some preliminary applications of the model are given.

The existence of an Extraordinary School as one of the educational institutions that is specifically intended to educate children with special needs in reality is still not able to fully accommodate the education of children with special needs. The increasing number of children with special needs while the existence of Extraordinary Schools is limited in each district in Indonesia has caused many parents to send their children with special needs to formal education institutions, one of them in Madrasahs. This phenomenon requires Madrasas to adjust to their presence by becoming an institution that is friendly and inclusive of students whatever the conditions. One such effort is to develop an inclusive Madrasah curriculum that is a curriculum that suits the needs of children with special needs. The following article discusses the Adaptive Curriculum Development Model with a focus on discussion on Inclusive Madrasah Ibtidaiyah with the aim of developing an adaptive curriculum in which there are models of duplication, modification, substance and omission. All models of curriculum development can be an option to be implemented in an inclusive Ibtidaiyah Madrasah, depending on which model is considered the most appropriate for the conditions of students in Madrasas and which is possible to apply, this is because each Madrasah has different conditions between one and the other so they can implement a curriculum model that suits their students' needs.
