KSP merupakan suatu bentuk pengajaran dan pembelajaran yang dilengkapi bahan bantu mengajar yang efektif melalui kaedah ‘hands on experience’ dan bermain sambil belajar. Kaedah ini dilaksanakan sebagai alternatif kepada sistem pengajaran dan pembelajaran pendidikan khas yang sedia ada bagi membolehkan murid-murid berkeperluan khas belajar melalui pengalaman. Pembelajaran melalui KSP juga dijalankan mengikut keupayaan dan minat pelajar. Justeru itu kajian ini menyelidiki sejauh mana KSP ini dapat meningkatkan minat, penguasaan kemahiran dan perubahan tingkah laku murid-murid. Kajian yang dijalankan ini berbentuk kuasi eksperimen berdasarkan reka bentuk ujian pra dan ujian pos kumpulan eksperimen dan kumpulan kawalan Seramai 16 orang murid dari Program Integrasi Bermasalah Pembelajaran SK Astana, Kuching bagi kategori perkembangan lewat diambil sebagai sampel kajian. Data dianalisis menggunakan Statistic Package of Social Science (SPSS) versi 14.0. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan bahawa KSP ini telah menghasilkan perubahan yang positif terhadap minat, penguasaan kemahiran dan perubahan tingkahlaku murid. Oleh itu diharap kajian ini dapat membantu pihak Kementerian Pelajaran Malaysia dan guru-guru pendidikan khas merancang dan melaksanakan KSP yang lebih baik agar perlaksanaan KSP menjadi lebih berkesan terhadap perkembangan mental, fizikal dan sosial pelajar berkeperluan khas.

This study investigated the effectiveness of the Learning Station Method (LSM) in the Special Education Program for students with learning disabilities. LSM is a teaching and learning method equipped with effective teaching materials that emphasizes ‘hands on experience’ and learning through play. This method is an alternative to the traditional teaching and learning method that is currently being used in Special Education Programs as it provides students with an opportunity to experiential learning and is also conducted according to students’ individual ability and interests. The objectives of this study are to investigate the effectiveness of LSM in increasing students’ interest in learning, mastery of the skills taught and students’ behavior change. This study is quasi experimental with control and experiment groups, using pre and post tests.16 students who were diagnosed with developmental delay were recruited for this study. They were enrolled in the from the Special Education Learning Disabilities Program in Astana Primary School, Kuching. Data was analyzed using the Statistic Package of Social Science (SPSS) versi 14.0. Research findings showed that LSM was successful in increasing students’ interest, mastery of skills taught and positive behavior. It is hoped that this research would be useful for the Ministry of Education and special education teachers in planning and implementing more effective LSM for the development of mental, physical, and social domains of students with special needs.
