Abstract
The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of therapeutic or sensory gardens in the behavioral and learning aspects of children with autistic disabilities. To understand the same, a total of 30 students between the age group of 4 to 10 were examined from an autism school in Tirunelveli, Tamilnadu. The study was conducted through observational analysis and structured interviews with doctors, caregivers, and teachers of the school. The result shows that sensory gardens have a considerable impact on autistic children as it helps them in improving their communication skills and positive behavioral changes. The study also shows that the sensory gardens enhance the learning focus in autistic children and the guidelines based on the same have been formulated.
期刊介绍:
International Journal of Management Science and Engineering Management (IJMSEM) is a peer-reviewed quarterly journal that provides an international forum for researchers and practitioners of management science and engineering management. The journal focuses on identifying problems in the field, and using innovative management theories and new management methods to provide solutions. IJMSEM is committed to providing a platform for researchers and practitioners of management science and engineering management to share experiences and communicate ideas. Articles published in IJMSEM contain fresh information and approaches. They provide key information that will contribute to new scientific inquiries and improve competency, efficiency, and productivity in the field. IJMSEM focuses on the following: 1. identifying Management Science problems in engineering; 2. using management theory and methods to solve above problems innovatively and effectively; 3. developing new management theory and method to the newly emerged management issues in engineering; IJMSEM prefers papers with practical background, clear problem description, understandable physical and mathematical model, physical model with practical significance and theoretical framework, operable algorithm and successful practical applications. IJMSEM also takes into account management papers of original contributions in one or several aspects of these elements.
