中心環境

Alpha ASD Center的整體教學場地與設施,乃是為了達成我們的教學體系和理念而精心設計,具有實用性及相容性的學習環境。 The overall design of Alpha ASD Center is to achieve our teaching system and main concept, which require practical and compatible learning environment. 大教室: 大教室的理念是基於老師與學生一比一配比的原則,設計讓最多五組師生能在同一教室進行教學互動,不感到侷促。 Large Classrooms:Our team instruction concept requires a room big enough for up to 5 pairs of teacher and student to work together still with breathing room. 小教室:相對之下,小教室則是適合進行一對一或二對二的教學設計,我們重視有效的空間運用,所有的小教室都可以關上門成為安靜、隱秘不受打擾的獨立學習環境。 Small Classrooms:Our team instruction concept requires a room big enough for up to 5 pairs of teacher and student to work together still with breathing room. 安靜室:在Alpha 有一個可以觀察到遊戲區、但是四面有玻璃窗阻隔的小房間,是為了孩子提供一個喘息的空間。 在情緒爆發的臨界,孩子可以要求進入安靜室舒緩心情,這是教導孩子們管理情緒的設計。 Quiet Room:We set up a room adjacent to the playground but is encircled with glass windows with a unique therapeutic purpose. Children are taught to acknowledge their emotional climax so that they can request to go to this quiet room, instead of engaging aggressive or interruptive behaviors. Such relaxing and calming space benefits children on their emotion management. 感官室:我們設計了這個充滿顏色、形狀、聲音、光亮的教室,用各種刺激來訓練孩子們的感官知覺、並讓他們能通過這些外在的刺激物來調節情緒,促進學習。 Multi-Sensory Room:This room is equipped with switches to provide multiple sounds, colors, shapes, and lights to expand children’s sensory receiving and processing. Furthermore, these external stimuli can help attenuate children’s extreme emotions and improve their overall learning. 游乐场:Alpha 提供了面積廣大的遊戲空間、同時也是機會教學的場所。中心中庭百平米的遊戲空間,包含中心的大樹、滑梯、海洋球池等,在遊戲中練習孩子的社會性、社交能力、遵守規則的習慣、以及彼此間的互動。 Playgrounds:Alpha provides various play space for children: a 100 square meter center ground, several smaller play sites, a large slide, and a ball pit with ocean scene. These not only provide entertainment for the children, but also great opportunities for them to learn social skills, rule-following, and propose interaction with each other.

除了教學空間外,Alpha的設計還有一些亮點:

窗明几淨的採光設計,通透明亮,不論在哪個教室或是哪個活動空間都可以感受到室內室外融為一體的感受,也讓教學環境成為具有安全距離、卻沒有和外界隔離的開放空間,可以大大增加孩子學習的舒適度。

Other than instructional space, there are a couple of spotlights in Alpha:

All rooms in Alpha ASD Center are bright. The natural daylight can easily lit up the whole facility with windows on every wall and every room. One can feel the integration of indoors and outdoors, as it provides a safe distance from the outside but at the same time no distance in between. It greatly increases the comforts for whoever entering this space. 家长休息区:我們了解許多家長每日的辛苦以及休息、工作、社交的需要,在中心前台設置了家長休息區,希望提供安適、舒緩、愉悅的氣氛,咖啡的香氣和舒適的空間,讓每個等待孩子的家長都能有家的感覺。 Parent Waiting Area:we understand that our parents go through hardship every day to care for their children, and that everyone needs space to rest, to work, and to socialize. The parent waiting area provides a coffee-shop atmosphere and accommodation for parents to sit down, take a deep breath, have a nice nap, or to run a few online chores. The comfort, relaxation, and joyful feelings are our intention for a sense of home outside the home.
