<p>This study aims to measure the effectiveness of “multiplex teaching method” in mastering vocabulary for deaf students. Multiplex teaching method consists of picture language, sign language, printed-word language, written language, and spoken language. The research was designed as a single subject research (SSR) with baseline, intervention, and maintenance phase (A-B-A’ design). The research subjects consisted of two deaf students in special school of SLB Bhakti Luhur Malang, Indonesia. In addition, a special education teacher and an observer were involved in this study. The intervention instrument comprised five lesson plans (LP), each containing a vocabulary of four words. The data were analyzed using intra-condition and inter-condition graphical inspection with a focus on data stability, trends, and score changes. The effectiveness was determined by the Percentage of Non-Overlapping data (PND). The change of score from A'/A achieved by Subject-1 was 7.86 points, while Subject-2 obtained 7.68 points. Subject-1 obtained an average PND B/A of 100% and average PND A'/B of 82.5%. Subject-2 achieved an average PND B/A of 99% and PND A’/B of 90%. Thus, multiplex teaching method is very effective in helping deaf students master vocabulary.</p>

This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of providing time management assistance.  to reduce the intensity of tardiness in 7th grade female students.  This research is an experimental study with a single subject research.  Interventions were carried out on research subjects and parents.  Intervention by accompanying the subject in managing the time of daily activities clearly and in writing, while the subject of intervention in parents is psychoeducation.  Interventions conducted on the subject were done in 4 sessions with each session carried out for 60 minutes where in the first session the subject was given an explanation of the importance of time management, in the second session the subject was asked to detail the important daily activities and must be carried out and determine the time at  each activity, in the third session the subjects were asked to evaluate related matters that did not support the fulfillment of the specified time management and the things that might be done to keep doing activities in accordance with the time specified and for the fourth session the subjects were asked to  evaluate the entire intervention process and conclude with regard to its effects.  The intervention that was carried out to parents was carried out 1 time with a duration of 30 minutes.  The result of the intervention is that the research subject can manage the time of daily activities more clearly and in writing so that he can follow the set time.  In the subject's parents, the subject's mother understood more about the subject's problems and needs so that the parents paid more attention to the subject and determined someone to bring the subject to school at the designated time.  From the interventions carried out, there are changes in the way of thinking and attitudes towards the subject and parents of the subject which are expected to reduce the intensity of the subject's lateness to school.

Ability To Act

Abstract Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) reduce one’s ability to act appropriately in social situations. Increasing evidence indicates that children with ASD might ignore nonverbal social cues that usually aid social interaction because they do not recognize or understand them. We asked children with ASD to color an augmented reality coloring book (ARCB) to teach them how to recognize and understand some specific social signals and to ignore others. ARCB materials teach children to recognize and understand social signals in various ways. They can, for example, view 3D animations of the ARCB materials on a tablet computer. Thus, the ARCB can be used to help children with ASD focus their attention on the meaning and social value of nonverbal behaviors in specific social situations. The ARCB has multiple functions: it extends the social features of the story, and it restricts attention to the most important parts of the videos. Single-subject research with a multiple-baselines across-subject design was used in this study. After five weeks of ARCB training intervention, all 3 participants’ scores rose significantly and dramatically during the intervention phase (mean rate of correct answers improved from 14.24% to 47.33%), and remained significantly higher in the maintenance phase than at baseline. We conclude that coloring pictures of social situations may help children with ASD recognize and better understand these situations.

Measurement Results

The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the adsorption of dye on carbon microparticles. We conducted two experiments: Understanding of the adsorption of dye on carbon microparticles. We used turmeric solution as a model of dye, in which this solution was contacted into commercially available carbon microparticles in the batch-typed adsorption reactor. The measurement results were then compared to several adsorption isotherm models, such as Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin, and Dubinin-Radushkevich models; and finding teaching strategies to improve students’ understanding on the adsorption concept to students with special needs. As for the second part which is finding strategies to teach the obtained results and their concept of adsorption to students with special needs, we evaluated the strategies to eight students with intellectual disabilities in special schools in Kuningan District, Indonesia using a Single Subject Research method (equipped with pre-test, post-test, and experimental demonstration). The results showed that carbon can absorb dye and can be used as an alternative for wastewater treatment. The isotherm models have the linearity parameter R2 of above 50%, and the most suitable model is Freundlich. The models also confirmed favorable adsorption with multilayer structure and physical interaction between turmeric and carbon microparticles. Demonstrating experiments and informing the measurement results gave great impacts on students’ comprehension, in which they have better understanding about the concept of adsorption compared to the conventional teaching method.

<p><strong>Abstract:</strong> Early childhood needs to have prosocial behavior to socialize. Conventional learning causes low prosocial behavior. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of project based learning on prosocial behavior of young children. This study uses a single subject research experimental design with three Group B kindergarten children as research subjects. Data collection using a rating scale prosocial behavior, showed an increase in prosocial behavior in all three subjects. The results of this study indicate that project based learning influences prosocial behavior of young children.</p><strong>Abstrak:</strong><em> </em>Anak usia dini perlu memiliki perilaku prososial untuk bersosialisasi.

Abstract The aim of this study was to clarify whether fingerspelling provides a sophisticated mechanism that promotes the development of detailed orthographic knowledge for deaf individuals even in the absence of paralleling phonological knowledge. An intervention program comprised of various procedures chaining between fingerspelled sequences; their written correlates and meaning were administered in a multiple probe single-subject research design across semantic categories to four children with severe to profound prelingual hearing loss (age 4.2–6 years). Results demonstrate the occurrence of rapid orthographic learning during intervention and reliable retention of it in maintenance checks, despite the participants’ insufficiently developed phonological skills. Observations of the participants’ behavior further suggest fingerspelling to function as an effective mediator in the initial development of robust detailed orthographic lexicon. Analyzes also indicate that “learning through action” and “relevance to the task” provide two key factors in relation to the promotion of orthographic learning, with their absence creating an obvious vacuum in this regard. Insights from the study are discussed with reference to their implication for the development of learning materials and learning environments for prelingually deaf and other novice learners.

Manifest Anxiety

The physiological subscale of the Revised Children's Manifest Anxiety Scale was examined using a matched single-subject research design. As predicted, a high scorer on the physiological subscale had a significantly higher resting EMG and did not significantly recover as did the low scorer on the physiological subscale on EMG. Contradictory findings were observed on skin temperature measures. Findings are discussed relative to the scope and shortcomings of the investigation, and directions for research are suggested.
