The objective of this project was to gain experience in a special education environment and learn about the dynamics between educators and children with developmental disorders. It was aimed at understanding the difficulties faced by children and how those are addressed by the special teachers and assistants.

This opportunity helped me form a mindset and generate empathy for the people involved in this ecosystem. From the first semester, when we had the user studies module, I was deeply interested in going among the users and knowing the difficulties at ground level. I learned that talking face-to-face with people reveals so much about the issue at hand. This is why I chose this NGO for this objective, so I can learn how assistance is provided to the young ones through intervention and effective, tailored teaching methods. It helped me understand how creativity and fun can provide children with opportunities for free expression, creative thought, and problem-solving skills.
