A doctoral thesis conducted at the University of Murcia (UMU) by Sarai Merino Ruiz has allowed the development of emotional and social skills in a student with autism spectrum disorders.
The program is based on a proposal of collaboration between the family and the school.
The research, which was led by Professor Josefina Lozano Martínez, presented a program of educational intervention that was carried out during three academic courses with four students diagnosed with the disorder and enrolled in a specific open classroom located in a center of Secondary Education.
The intervention process entailed an initial evaluation of the students in order to know what emotional and social skills they had acquired at that moment and which did not, in order to plan the next work sessions in the school and family context.
At the end of this process, it was concluded that all of them had acquired these skills, increasing their strategies for conflict resolution, as well as reducing certain inappropriate behaviors.
He also points out the doctoral thesis that both the families and the tutor of the open classroom agreed to highlight the beneficial effects of the program.
