Abstract

Multidisciplinary integration in the development of social and economic skills for people with physical disabilities through the use of technology is one way to develop students' skills, enabling them to become proficient in a particular area and thus shaping them into independent individuals. The method used in this study is a qualitative research approach with a case study design. The results and discussion in this study show that children with physical disabilities require a holistic approach, such as the use of technology in graphic design and AI, to create marketable skills. Meanwhile, their social skills will continue to develop through good cooperation between teachers, school members, and parents. This cooperation helps achieve the goal of becoming independent individuals.
