Abstract
Inclusive education has gained recognition worldwide, with schools and universities adopting various approaches to prioritize inclusivity. However, the challenges faced by educational institutions in this process cannot be ignored. Addressing these challenges is essential in creating a more inclusive society that values and celebrates diversity. This study aims to introduce a model called the Sustainable Inclusive Framework Studio (SIF Studio), which incorporates inclusiveness principles. This model draws from Lev Vygotsky’s social constructivism and Albert Bandura’s behavior modeling theories. SIF Studio is a framework that emphasizes inclusivity, sustainability, and innovation in education. A quantitative approach is employed to explore the perceptions of teachers, parents, and students regarding the implementation of SIF Studio. The study results revealed that there is a significant difference in the perceptions of students, teachers, and parents before and after the introduction of SIF Studio. By designing and developing SIF Studio specifically for educational institutions, this research aims to bridge the gap between inclusivity goals and practical implementation while aiming for the sustainability goals alongside this.
