Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) is a lifelong handicap that affects the lives and the people around them. Knowing them as a unique person, designated learning environment should consider the sensory issues to overcome their needs. However, designers are lack of awareness in terms of sensory design while designing learning spaces for autistic children. This research objective is to identify the sensory design of physical learning enviroment in the Autism Centre, while the paper aims to develop the Design Criteria Checklist of sensory design for Autism Centre. The result of the study highlighted factors that relating to quality physical learning environment.eISSN: 2398-4287 © 2018. The Authors.

The designated learning environment for autism is unique and should consider sensory issues to overcome their needs. The purpose of this paper is to review related articles to gain a better understanding of autism needs regarding sensory design, sensory issues, sensory space, internal environment, and physical learning environment. This paper will outline the sensory design of the physical learning environment that would impact the sensory design towards the physical learning environment. This research paper concludes to be a guide for the designer to overcome sensory input so that autistic can learn more efficiently and develop with less stress.Keywords: Autism; sensory design; sensory issues; physical learning environmenteISSN: 2398-4295 © 2019.

This study aimed to examine the parental occupation in pre and post-natal among Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and to identify the desired factors to work. The 124 samples ages between 26 to 52 years old including 59 males and 65 females from 5 difference rehabilitation centres were recruited. A self-rated parental occupation questionnaire was used to measure. Finding shows the parent who works in the high professionals and technicals has a high risk of having ASD. The factors which contribute to the desired parents to work in that field are earning more money, knowledge development and satisfying basic needs.© 2016. The Authors.

This paper explores faculty and student reflections on their experiences navigating the different learning spaces while participating in the Student Wiki Interdisciplinary Group, a technology-based collaboration project at Queensborough Community College. A survey of the participant's opinions on their technology readiness and preparation, their comfort with different learning spaces, and their movement across the spaces was administered online to gather data. The analysis of the reflections reveals that while most participants felt sufficiently prepared and supported, streamlining and ensuring consistent access to technology platforms would facilitate movement across the different spaces.

The increasing numbers of autism give impact to the country, community and family. The only way to help autistic children is to provide them with proper education. Thus, architects play roles in creating responsive buildings. A pilot test has carried out on a group of people similar to the research population. The objective is to assess the reliability and validity of a questionnaire. Four sections (144 items) determining the frequency of Sensory Sensitivity, Sensory Stimulation, Sensory Design and Physical Learning Environment. Respondent (N=35) completed the survey and the reliability test resultant to reveal inconsistencies and revising the criteria accordingly.

The propagation of household recycling is undeniable and thorough. Recycling behaviour among households in urban areas and Malaysia has, however, received less attention. Therefore, the purpose of this preliminary study is to outline the influence that household behaviour is motivated through waste recycling. The survey carried out in six (6) suburbs of Shah Alam using a convenient sampling method to perform a site inventory and questionnaire survey. The findings are affected by the influences of recycling and individual activities representing their contribution to recycling domestic waste.

Autism is a lifelong handicap that affects their social skills, repetitive behaviors, speech, and nonverbal communication, as well as by unique strengths and differences. Knowing them as a unique person, designated learning environment should consider the sensory issues to overcome their needs. However, designers are lack of awareness in terms of sensory design during their design stage. The objective is to identify the sensory design of the classroom environment, while the paper aims to develop the Design Criteria Checklist of sensory design for Autism Centre.
