Development of Adaptive Sports Models in Improving Motor Ability and Embedding Cultural Values in Children with Special Needs

Adaptive physical education is education that provides opportunities for students with special needs to be able to actualize physical activities through activities that are directed and planned in the learning program. Development research is a method for producing certain products or perfecting existing products and testing the effectiveness of these products. Researchers conduct research and development of adaptive sports models. The feasibility level of developing this model is known through validation by the material expert, validation by the media expert, validation by the teacher and trial use by students. Learning to use adaptive sports models for children with special needs has a response that is quite positive and has a good impact. This is shown in the data exposure related to the results of the teacher's response of two people and five students during the implementation of the trial with the acquisition of an average value of 4.5 for teachers and 4.6 for students so that if within the range values > 4.2 "very good", thus the response results show "very good" results.
