GUIDANCE AND COUNSELING FOR CHILDREN WITH LEARNING DIFFICULTIES

Abstract

One of the problems frequently encountered in schools is learning difficulties. Learning difficulties is a term used to describe various conditions that affect a child's ability to understand lessons. Many factors can cause a child to experience learning difficulties. This condition is not solely related to intelligence levels, but also related to the child's ability to master learning skills and complete assigned tasks. The purpose of this study is to analyze the concept of Developmental Guidance and Counseling services for children with learning difficulties and provide recommendations for services that are appropriate to the development of students. This research uses a qualitative descriptive study method. Developmental guidance and counseling services play a crucial role in supporting children with learning difficulties. Developmental Guidance and Counseling (BK) has the primary goal of supporting children's overall growth so that they can develop optimally, both academically, socially, and emotionally. The developmental guidance and counseling program refers to four main services: basic services, responsive services, individual planning, and system support.
