Optimizing Inclusive Education: Uncovering Challenges and Strategies in Primary Schools Through a Literature Review
Full text linkInclusive education means that every student, including those with special needs, has the right to an education in an inclusive school environment. In the context of inclusive education, several fundamental obstacles stand in the way of creating an inclusive and supportive learning environment. The current study aims to provide a deeper understanding of the importance of inclusive education and the steps that can be taken to ensure that every child, including those with special needs, can benefit from a balanced and equitable education. The method used in writing this article is a literature review, with the ten articles used being literature published in 2020-2023 Articles were selected by determining the scope, selecting relevant keywords, and writing eligible articles related to the implementation of inclusive education in Indonesia. The results show that most schools in Indonesia have an understanding of inclusive education but still need to improve their implementation. Factors include the need for more special assistant teachers, socialization of inclusion policies, and limited budgets. Although some schools have implemented the inclusion program well, there are still challenges, including a need for more understanding from the community and parents, a shortage of human resources, and barriers to the optimality of inclusive education activities. In implementing inclusive education, success factors involve teachers' attitudes and knowledge, communication, and adequate infrastructure
Effectiveness of the Prof. Tito Storybook in Enhancing Student Learning in Indonesian Language and Natural Science for Fifth Grade Elementary School Students
Full text linkThis research addresses the issue of unsuitable children's storybooks influencing elementary students' thinking patterns by mirroring adult behaviors, prompting the development of the modern children's storybook "Prof. Tito: Electric Bicycle Edition" to enhance literacy and science technology education. The specific aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of character-based and science technology-focused storybooks in improving Indonesian and natural sciences learning among fifth-grade students.

Elementary School Physical Education Teachers' Perceptions of Strengthening Character Education in Physical Education
Full text linkThe government has been implementing the Strengthening Character Education (PPK) program since 2016, mandating teachers, including Physical Education (PE) teachers, to integrate character values into the learning process. However, practical implementation often needs to be improved, with character values being documented mainly in administrative records like learning plans. Preliminary studies in the Sumedang district reveal a need for more emphasis on the affective domain, as PE teachers tend to focus on the psychomotor domain. So, in-depth research must be conducted on this topic. This research, a case study involving 10 PE teachers in Sumedang Regency, explores their perceptions of character education. The data were collected by distributing short questionnaires to collect participant demographic data; ten people participated in semi-structured interviews. Through inductive and thematic data analysis, themes voiced by participants were identified, evaluated, and created with the help of NVivo 12 Pro. Significant findings emerged through open questionnaires and semi-structured interviews, which included teacher understanding, urgency, challenges, learning strategies in integrating character values, and PPK's contribution to improving holistic student development. This research contributes to improving the quality of physical education learning in elementary schools, which is oriented toward strengthening character education. These insights are crucial for policymakers, curriculum writers, and educators to enhance character education in physical learning
