The observation result from the field study indicated that the blind students, the carrier of sight disorder, often had movement limitedness in their environment.Lack of vision ability influenced toward their daily activity. Although the vision was less the environment introduction to the blinds was as the realization that they could do the activity as the normal. Developing interactive multimedia scale media based orientation and mobility to implant mastering concept of school environment strived to help solving the blind students’ problem so that they could study with comfortable, safe and happy, brave walking autonomously and hope continuously to be success person to do daily activity.Based on the blind students’ problem, this research could be formulated as the following: 1)How was the developing prototype result of interactive multimedia scale media based orientation and mobility to implant the mastering concept of school environment to blind students in Special School?, 2)How was the prototype result properness of interactive multimedia scale media based orientation and mobility in implanting the mastering concept of school environment to blind students of Special School? In specific, this developing research had purpose 1)to produce the prototype of interactive multimedia scale media based orientation and mobility to implant the mastering concept of school environment to the blind students in Special School, 2)to examine the prototype result properness of interactive multimedia scale media based orientation and mobility to implant the mastering concept of school environment to blind students in Special School.This developing research used Educational Research Development (R&D) model design from Borg & Gall(1983).To make multimedia scale media used ASSURE model developed by Smaldino (1999) and to produce the prototype product of interactive multimedia scale media based orientation and mobility to implant the mastering concept of school environment to blind students in Special School contained the realization of product arrangement, i.e. 1)the guide of building and road access to various places of school environment with the concept of audio program and Braille writing, 2)the form of multimedia scale media in the direction, 3)operating how to strike the keys suitable with the destination intended and being provided to the scale media of school environment building, and 4)assessment instrument for mastering environment concept with authentic assessment as the success in orientation and mobility.The prototype product of interactive multimedia scale media based orientation and mobility to implant the mastering concept of school environment to blind students produced could be used as the effort of recognizing social environment with comfortable, safe and happy.
