Exploration of Outdoor Learning Space Towards ASD Children: A Systematic Literature Review

Abstract

The design of outdoor learning spaces is vital for enhancing attention among children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Although the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) emphasize inclusivity, there is still a lack of attention to ASD children's needs in educational institutions. A qualitative study examined the characteristics of outdoor learning spaces through a systematic literature review. The analysis highlighted key findings related to authorship and publication, as well as specific attributes of the space characteristics. The study aims to guide professional authorities in developing effective policies and practices to create inclusive outdoor learning spaces for ASD learners.
