Child with autistic spectrum disorder
PĚCHOČOVÁ, Nikol
This bachelor thesis is focused on the topic of autistic spectrum disorders. The main objective is to compare ways of educating pre-school children in a regular and special kindergarten, and a description of the benefits and deficiencies in the life of a person with ASD. The first part of the work is focused on characteristics of autism, definition of individual concepts, classification, possibilities and means of education based on sources of professional literature. The second part describes the possibilities of education in a special kindergarten, where two boys of the same age and a diagnosis of child autism were selected for qualitative research. The work was done by the method of participating observation. I became a direct actor in the educational process. Research findings are based on responses, activities, approaches of individual clients and other participants in the whole process in home and school facilities. Here are some of the specific methods that are used in those institutions, and their effects on the observed clients. By regularly attending selected places, I evaluated whether the chosen techniques were successful in their versatile development, and I compared the mutual collaboration of the family and the school. A rich description of the two observed clients and their individual manifestations was created, based on the sorted data. Finally, I discuss the results of the whole research, the benefits and possible shortcomings that take place in the life of the clients, and my own view of the given situation.
