The sole objective of this peculiar research paper is to insinuate a way to improve the speaking capabilities of the Autistic children. Autism targets the speaking competency of the children and is marked with anxiety and repetitive behavior. This work is prolific for the teachers of Autistics, as it incorporates Behavioral operant and reinforcement with CLT techniques to chisel speaking skills in effective manner. Autism has been associated with Verbal Behavior by Skinner and reinforcement has been used before to initiate speaking in Autistic children. Hereby, this research is fusing Behaviorism with CLT technique to devise ways of improving the speaking competence of Autistics. The research is quantitative and questionnaires are used as the major tool of data collection to increase the authenticity of research. The results of this particular research further support the hypothesis of the researcher that integration of these two approaches significantly change the speaking habits of the Autistic children. This work is significant as it not only provides the ways to reduce anxiety and speaking inactivity of Autistic children, but it also paves way for them to be more socially interactive. |
