Tutorial Animation for Learning Entrepreneurship Skills to Improve The Economic Independence of SLB Students with Intellectual Limitations

Abstract

The lack of entrepreneurial skills or life skills for Special School (SLB) students is one of the reasons why SLB graduates are still found not to be economically or financially independent. Therefore, optimal entrepreneurial skills assistance through community service programs is very important to do. This study aims to equip intellectually disabled students of Special Senior High School Purwosari Kudus with entrepreneurial skills and be able to be economically independent by training the students with entrepreneurial skills focusing on culinary art, batik making, and motorcycle washing using animated learning tutorials. The methods used as a solution to overcome the problem are (1) socialization, (2). entrepreneurship skills training with animated tutorials (3). Giving assistance to teachers and students in practicing entrepreneurship skills in the classroom and (4) empowerment. The results of this community service showed an increase in the knowledge and skills of students and teachers of SLB Pruwosari Kudus related to entrepreneurial skills in culinary art, batik making, and motorcycle washing after being given entrepreneurial skills training using animated tutorials. Considering the increasing knowledge and skills of students and teachers, it is hoped that after completing their studies, SLB students, especially SLB N Purwosari Kudus, will have sufficient provisions to be financially independent.
