Implementation of Local Wisdom-Based Learning Management in Inclusive Schools

Abstract

The research aims to identify how the management of inclusive school learning based on local wisdom is implemented in junior high schools. Our research is qualitative with an explanatory approach. The study participants were selected following a sampling technique with specific criteria. Data collection techniques include observations made by researchers without being directly involved in activities. In addition, interviews were conducted through direct communication between the interviewer and the participant. The data analysis technique was interactive, consisting of three activity lines including (1) data reduction, (2) data display, and (3) data verification. Theoretically, the teacher's research results show that implementing local wisdom-based learning management in inclusive schools has not been effective and needs to be improved in every aspect so that children with special needs can learn like other children.
