「感官室」個案研究
「感官室」個案研究 Sensory Room

由「優質教育基金─公帑資助學校專項撥款計劃」資助的「樂義仔感官學習計劃」已順利完成。此計劃能由
課堂學習深化為個案研究，有賴教學部於初探階段搜集「感官室」環境對智障學童的學習成效，作為日後運用「感
官室」教學用途的實證數據。

是次個案研究聚焦「感官室」環境就智障學童於肌能、感官反應和情緒行為三大範疇的學習成效，並安排14名
6至18歲中度或嚴重智障學生，於2022年6月至7月進行為期八星期、每星期35分鐘的個別輔導課堂，由教師及職
業治療師協作上課，學生類別包括自閉症、專注力不足、過度活躍、視障、大腦麻痺、醫療情況複雜等。

A preliminary case study on the "Sensory Room"
A preliminary case study on the "Sensory Room"

The "LOK YI Kids Sensory Learning" project, supported by the Dedicated Funding Programme for Publicly-funded Schools of the Quality
Education Fund, has been completed successfully. The original focus of the project was the effect of utilising our sensory room on students’
learning in classes. Thanks to the participation from our teaching department, the focus of this project has transcended from a lesson-based
learning experience to a case study, allowing us to find out the effect of a sensory room environment on the learning efficacy of students with
intellectual disabilities, supporting the use of “sensory room” for teaching purposes in the future.

This case study was conducted from June to July in 2022. It aims to explore the effect of a sensory room environment on the learning efficacy
of students with intellectual disability in the areas of ‘motor functioning’, ‘sensory response’, ‘emotion and behaviour’, as well as its maintenance
effect. 14 students with moderate or severe intellectual disability, aged from 6 to 18 years old, were selected to take part in weekly individualized
teaching sessions for 8 weeks. Each session lasted for 35 minutes. These sessions were co-led by teachers and occupational therapists. The
students selected covered a wide variety of diagnoses and impairments, including autism spectrum disorder, attention deficit/ hyperactivity disorder,
visual impairment, cerebral palsy, medical complexities, etc.
