Contemporary Trends and Usage of Augmented Reality Tools for Autistic Children
摘要
The term “autism” describes a group of developmental illnesses marked by habitual actions as well as issues with interacting with others, communicating, and connections with other people. In actuality, we relate to each of the conditions which are included in the spectrum of autism disorders while we mention “autism” (ASD). In light of this, it can be difficult for parents and teachers to provide the instruction that children with ASD need. Differentiated learning, visual tools, and assistive technologies are among the many techniques and strategies that researchers and educators have invented throughout the last few years to help educate students with ASD. Augmented reality, or AR, is the process of superimposing digital images onto real-world footage. It has given us new opportunities to engage, play, and learn. As AR-capable smartphones become more widely available, businesses such as Agents of Discovery (AoD) are now developing AR-infused educational resources. These tools are more appealing and cater to various learning styles, which sets them apart from conventional teaching techniques. With the use of an app, students can manipulate things on the screen, examine objects with their phone or tablet, listen to music or noises, color an image, or read a text that seems to hover over a thing. Discussions: The paper emphasizes the complex issues of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) in the classroom and stresses the necessity of individualized teaching strategies because those with the condition have varying requirements. It highlights the revolutionary possibilities of augmented reality (AR) in education, providing realistic and engaging lessons that accommodate various learning preferences and boost student engagement. With programs like Agents of Discovery serving as examples, augmented reality (AR) technologies offer a viable path for enhancing educational achievements and inclusion for kids with ASD.
