“…Based on the results obtained, it can be seen that the "PESAN KULIAH" application is proven to be able to increase the understanding of students with hearing impairments in understanding various writing of scientific papers so that this application also helps develop receptive language skills and expressive language in students with hearing impairments. Akpan & Beard (2013) said that assistive technology allows students with special needs to have the opportunity to explore, explain, elaborate, broaden ideas, evaluate, and actively participate in a problem-solving environment without any obstacles that can disrupt their focus. This is also recognized by Setyawan, Tolle, and Kharisma (2018) that the design of this Android-based application will be able to help all people, including individuals with hearing impairments, to receive information.…”

Lack of mastery of receptive and expressive language in students with hearing impairments affects the ability to compose scientific papers. Assistive technology for writing scientific papers can support students with hearing impairments in completing scientific paper assignments at various semester levels. This research aims to develop assistive technology that can make it easier for students with hearing impairments to participate in learning in tertiary institutions to create accessible learning for students with hearing impairments. Sign language application “PESAN KULIAH” (Guidelines for Writing Scientific Papers) is made by adjusting the characteristics of hearing impairments to make it easier to understand how to write various kinds of scientific papers. The method used in this research is R and D with ADDIE type. The results of the study show that the “PESAN KULIAH” application which contains explanation features about the types of scientific papers, writing systematics, and examples of scientific papers and is equipped with sign language videos by Sign Language Interpreters is proven to support the understanding of students with hearing impairments in understanding writing procedures and terms. contained in the preparation of papers, scientific reports, scientific articles, and theses.

“…Target 4.5 of SDG 4 proposes the confirmation of equal access for children with disabilities to all levels of education and vocational training (p. 37) [16]. Akpan and Beard (2013) and Nilholm (2021) stressed the necessity for educators involved in special and inclusive education to have access to guidelines containing model practices for the teaching-learning process, as well as practical applications and technical support [19,20]. While numerous studies exist on model practices in developed countries, the literature on underdeveloped countries is scarce due to their constrained resources, lack of accessibility, and limited availability [21,22].…”

Over the last quarter of a century, there has been a growing global interest in inclusive education, and the promotion of equality and acceptance for children with special educational needs. While some studies have explored sustainable practices for inclusion in international research, there is a notable lack of studies conducted in Pakistan that aim to identify best practices to not only promote inclusion, but also to sustain it over time. The current study uses a qualitative case study approach to explore one sustainable inclusive education setting in depth and identify the factors that contribute to its longevity. The thematic analysis revealed significant themes that reflect the practices that have enabled the institution to thrive for more than 25 years. These include the implementation of welcoming policies and supportive attitudes among all stakeholders, the provision of essential resources, the creation of adapted learning environments, the promotion of parental and peer support, the continuous professional development of staff, advocacy for acceptance and equality, and outstanding leadership in promoting inclusive support. The authors acknowledge the limitations of a single case study; however, this study represents the first attempt to provide guidance to institutions adopting inclusive education models in Pakistan.
