The Exploration of Kolok Students’ of Mathematics Ability in Inclusive Education at SD Negeri 2 Bengkala Kubutambahan District

Abstract

The research objectives were (1) to describe the ability of Kolok students to learn mathematics; (2) describe the normal role of students in helping kolok students; and (3) describe the role of parents / family in helping kolok students learn mathematics. The research subjects were 3 grade VI students who were kolok (speech impaired) at SD Negeri 2 Bengkala, Kubutambahan. This research is a phenomenological study emphasizing the meaning of experience for a number of individuals, focused on the abstract analysis schema of a phenomenon related to a special situation. To determine the ability of kolok students in mathematics, especially arithmetic, data were collected by means of tests. To determine the normal role of students in helping kolok students learn mathematics, data were collected using the observation method. To find out the parenting styles of students’ parents / families in helping kolok students in learning mathematics, data were collected using observation and interview methods. Data analysis was performed with descriptive statistics to describe the object under study, data exploration, and to describe all information that supports the research results. The results showed that (1) the mathematical abilities of kolok students in mathematics, especially arithmetic, were still lacking, (2) collaboration between normal students and kolok students in online learning was lacking, and (3) the role of parents / families in helping kolok students learn mathematics at home are severely lacking due to their limitations in technological abilities and mathematical abilities.
