Playground equipment design as the enhancement tool for the perceptual skill of slow learner children in Malaysia / Mohd Daniel Mohd Idros

In many schools around the country, there will be a few students that facing a problem in the learning process. They are much backward compared to the peers in terms of academic and non-academic performance. These types of children are commonly being called as slow learner students. ‘Play’ has long...
