ABSTRACT
Emotions and social relationships are important for the comprehensive development of children. The affection and social relationships of preschool children develop best through play activities, the center of which is the role-playing game. One of the most important tasks to support the development of emotions and social relationships is the need to build a system of toys appropriate for children and suitable for the conditions in each school. Hildren learn to express themselves and listen to others through group activities such as building, playing with dolls, and role-playing games. These activities encourage children to exchange ideas, share, and collaboratively create stories or imaginary scenarios, thus developing their communication and language skills. Through playing together, children learn how to cooperate, share, and resolve conflicts. Group games help children understand patience, compromise, and respect for others' opinions, thereby forming the foundation of healthy social relationships.

ABSTRACT
This study assessed the expressive language development of M.T, a 5-6-year-old child with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), following a STEAM educational intervention conducted in April 2023. Using a structured plan aimed at enhancing expressive language, the project involved activities like “Making Scented Jars” and “Making a Bird's Nest.” M. showed marked improvements, scoring 36 points in the post-intervention assessment, a 10-point increase from the baseline, placing him in the "Fair" category (Level 3). Key progress areas included the ability to present using visual aids and answer open-ended "Why?" questions. Initially unable to present and displaying negative reactions, M. gradually understood presentation structures and organized content more logically. He began to use simple negative sentences and sequence words effectively in storytelling. Additional gains were observed in daily use of names, actions, qualities, and polite expressions, indicating broader communicative improvement. Feedback from teachers and parents highlighted increased attention, interest, and confidence in STEAM activities. M.'s ability to engage in storytelling and role-playing significantly enhanced his classroom participation and reduced the need for external support. These findings underscore the potential of tailored STEAM activities to foster language development in children with ASD.

ABSTRACT
This study provides an overview of the theoretical framework for managing student affairs in public universities in the North Central region of Vietnam. Despite various efforts, student affairs management at these universities still faces numerous challenges and limitations. To meet the requirements of higher education management innovation and overcome these issues, a comprehensive approach with coordinated, effective, and standardized management solutions is necessary. The paper proposes five main solutions: raising awareness about student affairs and management for student affairs managers; innovating organizational structures and improving coordination mechanisms for student affairs management appropriate to the practical context; enhancing the capacity of dedicated staff and increasing the application of information technology and digital technology in managing student affairs; innovating the evaluation and inspection of student affairs management in schools; innovating the content and methods of organizing student affairs and managing student affairs. These solutions aim to improve the quality of student affairs management, thereby contributing to the mission of the university and enhancing the overall educational experience and the quality of the workforce. The proposed solutions are based on scientific and practical arguments from student affairs.

Etc. hence, the paper seeks to proffer strategies on how to re-craft the UBE programme for a more advanced and competitiveness amongst comity of nation. Thus, the paper examined the background/origin of the UBE programme, objectives of the universal education programme, problems confronting the UBE programme as well as its implications. The paper concluded by admonishing the federal government with the strategies needed for a successful implementation of the UBE programme in Nigeria while also recommending that the Nigerian society should do away with both the British and American system of education, to adopt that of a practical and technologically inclined system of education like China, Japan and other industrialized nations of the world.
