The designated learning environment for autism should consider sensory issues to overcome their needs. This paper would 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 by the sensory design towards the physical learning environment. This research paper would 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 environment;eISSN: 2398-4287 © 2019.

Autism occurs in every racial and ethnic group gives a life-long impact to their affected relative. Conducive physical learning environment deliver benefit and helps autistic children improve their skill and performance.  This research aims to develop a framework of the Physical Learning Environment, and this paper to determine the respondent knowledge of awareness on physical learning environment for autism. In summary, there are nine components involved: building scale, accessibility, wayfinding, toilet provision, window, ventilation/heating, threshold, legibility, and furniture. The significance of this research could contribute towards the creation of a quality environment for autistic children within the Malaysian context.   Keywords: Autism; physical learning environment; descriptive analysis. eISSN: 2398-4287© 2021.

This paper is to determine the sequela of smartphone usage in the learning environment among school students in Malaysia. The sample size of the study was 150 (n=150). The result demonstrated that smartphone usage increases sympathetic education, understudy commitment, and the upgrade of the student's intellectual limit as well as an inspired concentration in both formal and casual settings. Also, self-governance and certainty assisted with the advancement of customized learning in helping low-accomplishing students to achieve academic excellence. The suggestions confirmed that smartphone usage in the classroom brings about a compelling and legitimate procedure in the learning environment.Keywords: Smartphone Usage; Learning Environment, Student EngagementeISSN: 2514-7528 © 2020 The Authors.

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.

Concern on communicative capability of undergraduates in local universities has been a perennial issue. Language facilitators find it a challenge to accommodate this concern. The aim of this study is to identify the most critical challenges faced by an Ar for undergraduates. Data is collected via a written interview conducted on selected group of architecture students to present their perceptions and experiences in acquiring proficiency. Their views in relation to the oral communication in their learning environment are highlighted as drawn from observations and interviews excerpts. The data seem to suggest that although they are technically sound in their field of studies, they aspire to possess the communicative skills in order to market themselves. These vital skills which are closely related to employability and workplace literacy need to be further enhanced in determining the graduates’ success or failure in the workplace.eISSN: 2398-4287 © 2018.

The designated learning environment should be created as a unique learning space for autistic children and consider the sensory issues to overcome their needs. This learning environment would help Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) to continue their education in different environments to survive independently in the real world. This study used the variables of sensory stimulation, sensory sensitivity, sensory design, and physical learning environment to construct a questionnaire. It would distribute to architects towards achieving their level of knowledge and awareness. Findings are useful in the future for architects and designers when making decisions to provide conducive facilities for the autistic.

Designing spaces for the autistic should be considered their sensory needs. This quantitative study employed the survey method to explore the relationship between the sensory design towards the physical learning environment. The respondents (n=384) identified and Statistical Program for Social Sciences Software (SPSS) used for data entry and analysis. Pearson's Correlation is used to highlight relationships between the variables. The result revealed sensory design have a strong significant relationship towards the physical learning environment in the context of autism. Findings hoped to benefit in creating to improve the autism learning environment in Malaysia. Keywords: Sensory design; physical learning environment; quantitative eISSN: 2398-4287© 2021.
