Abstract

Autism is known as a developmental barrier that occurs in the brain. Furthermore is likely difficult to study in higher education. Our department has two undergraduate students with autism, and they had to take teaching practice course. This study aims to describe the behavior of two undergraduate students with autism at Special Education Department, Faculty of Education, State University of Jakarata during teaching. They had taught students with autism at special school for autism. The behaviors studied were concentration, repetitive behavior, self-smiling behavior, self-talk behavior, tantrum behavior, yawning behavior, flapping behavior. This research also examines their performance in the development of the Individual Education Program (IEP), teaching and the development of instructional media. The method used is descriptive with observation and interview techniques. The results obtained are (1) the teaching practices course is a compulsory subject for them even though they have autism, (2) there was a change in the length of time they concentrate on teaching, (3) there was still repetitive behavior at certain times, (4) there were no self-talk, a smile alone for no reason, tantrums, flapping, (5) at the beginning of the teaching meeting yawning behavior occurred, (6) squeezing the two fingers at a certain time. On performance it was found that they could develop IEP, teaching and media development The results of this study are very useful for Study Programs in making further teacher practices policies.
