resolving this gap. One of them is the existence of
inclusive education policies in formal schools.
However, the implementation does not work
effectively which it can increasedisability of these
children to interact, develop and receive the
education optimally.
Implementation of the 2013 Curriculum requires
a comprehensive understanding of the teacher about
the concept, preparation, and availability of facilities
and infrastructure. The teacher has an important role
in implementing the curriculum. One of the success
of the curriculum depends on the activities and
creativity of the teacher in developing and realizing
it. The teacher must also be able to carry out the
learning process in accordance with the Minister of
Education and Culture (Permendikbud) Regulation
Number 22 Year 2016 concerning the standards for
the process of primary and secondary education
(Rahmadani, Roza, and Murni, 2018).
The problems raised based on interviews and
observations with several teachers are the basis of
the authors to analyze the need for multimedia
intelligent mobile learning tool (i-MOL). It is based
on the teaching models of Indonesian language
learning in accordance with the demands and
expectations of the 2013 curriculum for elementary
school of Extraordinary School. In addition, this
study also identifies the types of learning models that
are suitable to be given to students with special needs
(mental retarded, down syndrome, and autism) so
they can be in accordance with the technological
developments and can support learning activities in
the classroom and outside the classroom. Based on
this background, this article aims to analyze the need
for a multimedia intelligent mobile learning tool (i-
MOL) model based on Indonesian speaking skills at
SLB B & C Dian Kahuripan, East Jakarta.
2 LITERATURE REVIEW
The analysis of the needs of this teaching material
combines the theory of (Briendley, 1995), the theory
of (Hutchinson and Waters, 1991) and the theory of
(Nation and Macalister, 2010) in (Fitria, Rasyid, and
Lustyantie, 2019), specifically by dividing need
analysis into objective and subjective needs.
Objective needs include analysis of identification
and background of students. Meanwhile subjective
needs include analysis of needs, shortcomings and
desires. In addition, researchers also integrate target
needs with learning needs into one in subjective
needs. Learning objectives are 1) learning media 2)
themes, 3) learning materials, 4) learning activities,
5) learning and evaluation media.
Learning models through multimedia can be
applied using intelligent mobile learning tool (i-
MOL) which is interactive in its use. This application
that is designed based on (i-MOL) is intended
specifically for learning models for children with
special needs in the form of applications that can be
accessed mobile or by relying on an Android
processor on a portable device or easily carried
anywhere such as smartphones and tablets or which
is called a mini computer by relying on the touch
screen. This media is designed by adjusting the needs
and compatibility of children with special needs. The
application design is given in order to demand a
digestive process in understanding articulation,
vocabulary and color grammar which is adjusted to
the level given to the needs of children with special
needs This application is designed as simple and
interesting as possible to create a child's interest in
learning Indonesian language which is supported by
the presence of media in the form of images,
graphics, videos and audio. This application is also
designed for the public which can be used both for
teachers in extraordinary schools or special needs or
for parents who have children with special needs.
The use of this Android-based device has its own
advantages that can be accessed free of charge for
the general public in meeting the needs of the
learning process for children with special needs.
In accordance with (Hornberger, 2010) in
(Lustyantie, Emzir, Mayuni, Arung, &Sarmadan,
2019) there are four things that need to be considered
in language teaching, namely: 1) Grammar abilities
related to phonological knowledge, morphology,
syntax, and vocabulary. 2) Linguistic abilities
consisting of various variations and codes. 3) Ability
to understand discourse both verbally and in writing,
and 4) Strategies in communication.
From the explanation above, a needs analysis
based on an interactive multimedia-based teaching
model using an intelligent mobile learning tool (i-
MOL) aims to facilitate children with special needs
in Indonesian speaking skills.
2.1 Learning Model Development
Learning media is a link from the giver or the
method of delivering information as a process of
learning to the recipient of the lesson. According to
(Locatis and Atkinson, 1984: 3), media is a tool
(usually in the form of audio-visual or electronic) to
convey or send messages. Media includes prints,
graphics, photography, audio communication,
television, simulation and games, and computers.
