Students with visual impairment require specialized assistive technologies to access information from their surroundings. This study develops and obtains expert validation for an instrument to assess teaching aids for SVI, emphasizing tactile technology through 3D printing as a key component. Using Design and Development Research (DDR), three experts validate content items in four sections: language, curriculum, pedagogy, and design (design, color coding, audio, Braille writing). Content Validity Index (CVI) analysis reports a satisfactory validity value with CVI=1.00, supporting suitability for evaluating tactile and audio teaching aids for SVI.

Therefore, the approach often used in schools is to develop teaching aids with specific features that can help them access information. Therefore, this study focuses on obtaining expert validation for the development of a specific instrument that addresses the needs of SVI in the creation of ABM—particularly in the use of 3D printing (3DP) technology as a component of tactile technology. In this study, the research approach used is Design and Development Research (DDR) . The expert validation represents the initial phase of the second stage (design and development) to obtain consensus from experts in establishing content items that can measure the needs of these students. A total of three (3) experts were involved in this study. The developed instrument is a questionnaire consisting of four (4) main sections: language, curriculum, pedagogy, and design (design, color coding, audio, Braille writing) . The content validity analysis was conducted using the Content Validity Index (CVI) method. The findings indicate that the developed instrument has a satisfactory validity value with a CVI score of 1.00—demonstrating that the items developed are accurate in evaluating teaching aids specifically for SVI. Therefore, the developed instrument is deemed suitable for assessing teaching aids that utilize tactile and audio technology specifically for SVI use. Keywords: special education, students with visual impairment (SVI), 3D printing technology (3DP), design and technology (RBT), teaching aids Abstrak Murid berkeperluan khas kategori ketidakupayaan penglihatan (MBK-KKP) merupakan antara golongan minoriti di dalam masyarakat yang sangat memerlukan teknologi bantuan khusus untuk menerima informasi daripada persekitaran. Oleh itu, pendekatan yang sering digunakan di sekolah adalah dengan membangunkan alat bantu mengajar (ABM) dengan ciri khusus yang dapat membantu mereka menerima maklumat. Atas dasar ini, kajian ini memfokuskandalam mendapatkan kesahan daripadapakar terhadappembangunan instrumen khusus yang melihatkepada keperluan MBK-KKP dalampembangunan ABM– khususnya dalam penggunaan teknologi pencetakan 3D (3DP) sebagai salah satu pecahan teknologi taktil. Dalam kajian ini, pendekatan kajian yang digunakan merupakan pendekatan Penyelidikan Reka Bentuk dan Pembangunan (DDR). Namun begitu, kesahan pakar ini merupakan awal bagi fasa kedua (reka bentuk dan pembangunan) untuk mendapat kesepakatan daripada pihak pakar dalam mewujudkan kandungan item yang dapat mengukur keperluan murid.
