ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was to investigate the change in Reading ability after applying a , multi-sensory exercise programs to children with Borderline Intellectual. A Task-Oriented multi-sensory exercise programs was implemented to children with Borderline Intellectual. K elementary school. The research proceeded in the order of a pre-test, Task-Oriented multi-sensory exercise programs intervention, and a post-test. The first session involved a pre-test, in which the children’s Reading ability were examined using type ‘A’ KNISE- BAAT Reading test. The Multi-Sensorimotor program intervention was conducted for a total of 8 sessions. In the last session, a post-test was conducted using type ‘B’ KNISE-BAAT Reading test. Data collected from the tests were analyzed using SPSS Statistics 18. According to the tests taken before and after implementing the Task-Oriented Multi-Sensorimotor Program, there was a significant improvement in Reading ability(Understanding words, Vocabulary selection, Vocabulary arrangement, Understanding short text).

However, there was no statistically Oral Reading, Completion sentence difference in literacy. Task-Oriented multi-sensory exercise programs may be used as a beneficial measure to improve the Reading abilities of children with Borderline Intellectual. It is necessary to design various intervention models by combining educational media based on a multisensory approach.

1. Introduction

Borderline intelligence refers to those showing IQs between 70 and 85 in the IQ test. They account for 13.59% of the total population in a normal distribution [1]. Although accurate statistics on students with borderline intelligence have not been reported in South Korea, estimated that approximately 800,000 students out of all school-age students would have borderline intelligence. As a result, their social needs and interests are attracting more attention [2].

Due to this social demand, the Elementary and Secondary Education Act was revised in February 2016, and Article 28 of it clearly stipulated educational support for students with borderline intelligence [3]. It also led to the establishment of a new legal basis for developing programs and supporting budgets for intervention. However, there is still insufficient understanding and support for children with borderline intelligence in the front-line education field [4].

The overall performance of children with borderline intelligence is lower than that of children with normal development, but higher than that of children with mild intellectual disability [1]. As a result, most children with borderline intelligence do not reach the academic achievement level required in the general education curriculum without any special attention or support and they

(2)

show various problems including learning delay because they experience repeated failures [5].

Children with borderline intelligence clearly show a deficit in reading ability, one of the necessary elements for successful academic achievement. This is because the cognitive- behavioral characteristics of children with borderline intelligence are a key causal factor of delaying their reading ability [6].

Reading ability refers to the ability to perceive text through sight, convert the perceived text into spoken language, understand the meaning of it, and analyze, criticize, accept, and apply it [7]. It is the reading comprehension ability to convert text into meaning and thinking about the arranged//listed words, as well as decoding ability that reads a syllabic block or word aloud.

therefore, it requires a metacognitive ability in the central nervous system [8]. Moreover, a person must be able to remain focused on the reading task and to continuously maintain the learning motivation to continue reading while solving various problems [9]. However, it has been reported that children with borderline intelligence have greater deficits in reading ability than average children because they have poor meta-cognitive ability to infer through abstract thinking [10-11].

This deficiency in reading ability can adversely affect learning in//of other subjects and can make social relationships and daily life difficult [12]. Children with intellectual deficits show distinct deficits in sensory and motor functions that are required for learning such as reading. Therefore, they need to receive sensory-motor function training prior to learn [13].

A. Jean Ayres (1972), who developed the sensory integration theory, assumed that hypothesized that delay in learning such as reading, writing, or speaking was because upper motor neuron was not able to control the lower sensorimotor lower motor neuron of the nervous system [14].

Consequently, she argued that the development of sensorimotor was an important foundation for learning and meaningful sensorimotor activities could change the nervous system. The multisensory approach, one of the sensorimotor approaches, is to elicit desirable feedback, such as reading or writing appropriately words in time by providing various sensory materials (e.g., art materials, sensory aids, and sensory media) to help the child's nervous system efficiently organize sensory information [15-16].

As the importance of intervention in the reading ability of children with borderline intelligence has been emphasized, many studies have evaluated this topic[6, 17-19]. However, most of them used methodological approaches to examine the different personal characteristics between learners and functional reading performance elements. Only a few studies evaluated the changes in reading ability related to the academic achievement of children with borderline intelligence.

This study reviewed recent studies on the academic achievement of children with borderline intelligence published in South Korean journals using South Korean academic databases and found only two studies. Kim and Kim(2007) evaluated the changes in the academic achievement of elementary school students with borderline intelligence by grade. Kim and Kim(2016) examined the characteristics of each sub-domain of reading ability using the academic achievement test of children with borderline intelligence [6, 20]

Therefore, this study tried to understand changes in reading abilities (oral reading ability and reading comprehension) by devising and applying a task-oriented multisensory exercise program model for improving the reading ability of children with borderline intelligence. It is expected that the results of this study will provide a way to effectively improve the reading ability of children with borderline intelligence.

2. Methods 2.1 Study subjects and period

This study was carried out from April to June 2018 as a part of the "Individual Student Treatment Support" project upon the request and commission of the K City Office of Education, Gyeongsangbuk-do. The projected referred ten children with borderline intelligence without hearing or vision problems attending K Elementary School located in K City. This study selected eight children as study subjects after excluding two students who voluntarily gave up their participation in the program after screening. The specific selection criteria are as follows: First, children who had overall IQ in the Korean Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (K-WISC-Ⅲ) between 71 and 84; Second, children whose raw score in the reading domain of the Korean National Intelligence for Special Education-Basic Achievement Test (KNISE-BAAT) was 84 points or lower and who showed learning delay (bottom 15% or lower); and Third, children who were not taking psychoactive drugs and not receiving treatments related to borderline intelligence or attention deficit and whose parents agreed to have them participate in the program. Specific information about the subjects is as follows(Table 1).

2.2 Reading ability assessment

This study used the KNISE-BATT to measure the reading ability of the subject. The KNISE- BATT was developed by Park to screen and diagnose children with poor reading and writing performance in school learning, identify areas where they showed poor performance, and understand their levels in each area [21]. It is a tool consisting of two types of equivalent tests, type "A" and type "B". This study used the type A reading test and type B reading test as pre- and post-test tools. The reading area is composed of three domains (prerequisite function, oral reading ability, and reading comprehension ability) and 20 sub-domains. This study used oral reading ability and reading comprehension ability among them, except for prerequisite function. The coefficient of internal consistency reliability, the reliability of the tool, was .82. Specific sub- domain and evaluation contents are as follows(Table 2).

2.3 Task-oriented multisensory exercise program

The task-oriented multisensory exercise program used in this program was newly devised by modifying and supplementing the multisensory exercise program of Kwag and Roh [22]. It is composed of task-oriented content that is grafted with educational media that can make students with borderline intelligence interested and familiarized by combining tactile, proprioceptive, and vestibular senses, the basic senses of sensory integration theory. The program contents are as follows(Table 3).

2.4 Social validity of intervention program

Social validity was measured to evaluate whether the goal setting and method of the task-oriented multisensory exercise program devised to change reading ability were socially valid. It was

(6)

measured before conducting the intervention using three occupational therapists and two special education teachers who had at least 5 years of sensory integration therapy experience. The social validity test was conducted by modifying and supplementing Shin [12]. It was composed of six items: two items of intervention usefulness, three items of appropriacy, and one item on the degree of recommendation for intervention. Each item was evaluated on a 5-point Likert scale (1 point: strongly disagree - 5 points: strongly agree). Occupational therapists showed 4.51 points and special education teachers had 4.11 points(Table 4).

2.5 Research procedure

In this study, the task-oriented multisensory exercise program was an independent variable, and the change in reading ability after applying the program was a dependent variable. It used a pretest-posttest experimental design(Fig 1). The experiment was conducted in the "classroom of K Elementary School" located in K city, Gyeongsangbuk-do. This study carried out ten intervention sessions for eight children with borderline intelligence from April to June 2018. This study performed the program by collecting opinions on matters to be considered during the intervention by composing a multidisciplinary team with two occupational therapists, one speech therapist, and one special education teacher. It was conducted in the order of pre-examination (one session), program intervention (eight sessions), and post-examination (one session). This study used the type "A" reading test of the KNISE-BAAT as a pre-test in the first session. The task-oriented multisensory exercise program intervention was conducted once a week (80 minutes) for a total of 8 sessions. A post-test was conducted using the type "B" reading test of the KNISE-BAAT in the tenth session. The intervention program (60 minutes per session) consisted of introduction (10 minutes: greetings and program introduction), main activity (40 minutes), and closing (10 minutes: sharing feelings and impressions).

This study used SPSS version 18 to understand the effects of the task-oriented multisensory exercise program intervention on the reading ability of children with borderline intelligence.

Since this study used eight subjects, which made it difficult to satisfy the normality assumptions, this study used non-parametric statistical methods. This study described basic information to understand the general characteristics of the subject. This study used Wilcoxon signed-rank test to evaluate the effect of the intervention on reading ability by comparing before and after the intervention, The significance level (a) of this study was set to 0.05.

4. Discussion and Conclusions

This study examined changes in reading ability and compared the results by devising and applying a task-oriented multisensory exercise program model for improving reading ability related to academic achievement for children with borderline intelligence. This discussion is based on them.

First, the task-oriented multisensory exercise program did not significantly affect the oral reading ability, a sub-domain of the reading ability test of children with borderline intelligence. However, the post-test mean (20.75) was slightly higher than the pre-test mean (19.50). Kim (2004) reported that the application of visual, auditory, tactile, and motor senses to 6th-grade elementary school students improved their English oral reading ability [23]. Moreover, Son (2013) showed that multisensory exercise activity combined with picture book media enhanced the expressive vocabulary and communication skills of 2-year-old normal infants. Providing various senses means that it is possible to form new synapses in the child's nervous system or actively generate neurotransmitters based on the neural plasticity theory [24], the foundation of the sensory integration theory. The results of this study were in the same line with the results of the previous studies. On the other hand, Shin (2016) compared changes in oral reading skills by using the play script-making program as an independent variable for children with intellectual disabilities.

However, Shin did not show significant changes, although there was a slight improvement, which was similar to the results of this study [12]. Oral reading ability is simply defined as reading words, reading a combination of "initial phoneme+middle phoneme" words and "initial phoneme+middle phoneme+final phoneme" words, reading meaningless words, or reading a paragraph or a sentence aloud [19]. Nevertheless, oral reading has many implications for children with borderline intelligence in guidance and evaluation of reading because it is possible to assess the overall reading level through the oral reading errors that appear when reading aloud [27]. It is believed that children tended to read aloud while imitating the pronunciation of celebrities due to frequent exposure to media such as TV or Internet one-person media broadcasting. Since they often experience difficulties in pronouncing complex vowels or similar words, it will be hard to correct the oral reading habit with a short-term intervention. Consequently, therapeutical and

(9)

educational support and mid-to-long-term intervention are necessary to improve their reading ability.

Second, the task-oriented multisensory exercise program significantly changed word comprehension, vocabulary selection, vocabulary arrangement, and short passage comprehension, sub-domains of the reading ability pre-test and post-test of children with borderline intelligence.

"Word comprehension" refers to the ability to infer the meaning of words and their relations with other words in the context. Vocabulary selection refers to the ability to select words that are suitable for tense and agreement and to come up with appropriate words for sentences.

Vocabulary arrangement means the ability to organize a sentence with various words and arrange [7]. Short passage comprehension refers to answering main facts after reading sentences or distinguishing facts, feelings, and opinions. Previous studies used sensorimotor as a medium for learning (e.g., reading) for children with central nervous system problems. Zentall (1993) reported that children with ADHD performed complex word tasks or text tasks better when visual stimulation was provided [27]. Moreover, Hilliard and Tolin(1979) and Parente (1976) revealed that the provision of familiar auditory stimuli positively affected academic task performance [28- 29]. The reading ability results of this study also followed the context of these previous studies.

Although it seems like choosing and arranging appropriate words and vocabularies and understanding short passages are very simple processes, it requires the word recognition process, which is one of the complex nervous system activities of the brain, in advance and a meta- cognitive process function that can determine the role of each word in a sentence [30]. It is believed that the sensorimotor activity applying multisensory, such as proprioception, vestibular, and tactile senses, the intervention program of this study, improved the reading ability of children with borderline intelligence, related to academic performance by enhancing their ability to regulate and organize the nervous system by themselves. Consequently, the results of this study implied that the task-oriented multisensory exercise intervention could be a beneficial method to improve reading ability.

On the other hand, sentence completion ability, one reading ability sub-domain. was not significantly influenced. The sentence completion ability of this study refers to the ability to complete a sentence by looking at a presented picture or filling a blank with an appropriate word [12]. Therefore, it is believed that future studies are needed to devise various intervention models incorporating teaching media based on the sensorimotor approach to improve the sentence completion ability. In modern society, the acquisition of knowledge is a bare essential to have a decent human life. Children with disabilities must also gain the knowledge needed to have a decent humane life, and the acquisition of such knowledge must be achieved through education.

Reading education for children with borderline intelligence should consider the universality of the general curriculum and their individual needs [31]. Moreover, these individual needs should be appropriately addressed and implemented with the support of experts in related fields, including teachers. From this point of view, it is believed that the importance of this study was to make an attempt to solve the educational problems of children with borderline intelligence through a multidisciplinary team approach. This study has two limitations: it is difficult to generalize the results of this study because the number of subjects does not meet the normal distribution and this study could not exclude the learning effect of regular education during the intervention. Therefore, future studies need to make new attempts to overcome these limitations.
