Abstract

Teaching language to students with special needs presents unique challenges, requiring tailored strategies to address diverse learning abilities and disabilities. Despite the growing emphasis on inclusive education, there is limited research on effective language teaching methods for this population. This study explores strategies for teaching language to students with special needs, focusing on their impact on language acquisition and engagement. The research aims to identify and evaluate effective strategies for teaching language to students with special needs, focusing on their impact on language proficiency, engagement, and inclusivity. It seeks to provide practical recommendations for educators to create supportive and effective learning environments. A mixed-methods approach was employed, involving 50 students with special needs and their teachers. Data were collected through classroom observations, teacher interviews, and pre- and post-tests to measure language proficiency. Qualitative data were analyzed using thematic analysis, while quantitative data were analyzed using statistical software. The findings revealed that multisensory approaches, visual aids, and individualized instruction significantly improved language proficiency and engagement among students with special needs. Teachers reported that these strategies enhanced students' confidence and participation. However, challenges such as resource limitations and lack of training were also identified. Tailored strategies, such as multisensory approaches and individualized instruction, are effective in teaching language to students with special needs. Educators should prioritize inclusive practices and professional development to address challenges and enhance language learning outcomes.

Abstract

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a significant mental health issue faced by individuals who have experienced natural disasters. Survivors of such events often endure long-lasting psychological effects, including flashbacks, hyperarousal, and emotional numbness, which hinder their ability to reintegrate into normal life. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) has emerged as an effective intervention for PTSD, offering tools for individuals to reframe distressing thoughts and regulate emotional responses. This study investigates the impact of CBT on the symptoms of PTSD in victims of natural disasters. The primary aim is to evaluate whether CBT can reduce the severity of PTSD symptoms in affected individuals. A quasi-experimental design was used, with 100 participants who were victims of a recent natural disaster. Participants underwent 8 weeks of CBT sessions, with pre- and post-assessment using the PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5). The results indicated a significant reduction in PTSD symptoms, with a marked decrease in both intrusive thoughts and hyperarousal behaviors. The findings suggest that CBT is an effective therapeutic approach for alleviating PTSD symptoms in disaster survivors. The study concludes that integrating CBT into post-disaster mental health care programs can significantly improve the well-being of disaster victims.
