Abstract

The aim of this study is to provide early detection of children with special needs in early education and to offer proper handling for children with special needs. In fact, many preschool teachers experience difficulty in recognizing children with special needs with various characteristics. Difficulties in detecting children with special needs can only identified after they attend elementary school which is late and more complicated. Based on this urgency, we try to design training which can assist to improve teachers’ ability to detect children with special needs early. The early detection in the context of providing appropriate educational services to avoid learning problems in the future. This article propose a design of training intervention for teachers so that it enables them to increase their understanding of children with special needs. Also, the training can improve the teachers’ ability to identify various types of child development disorders; thus, they can refer children with special needs to experts accordingly. The design of this training is expected to be applied in preschool teachers so enhance their ability to carry out early detection of children with special needs.
