摘要

Digital social stories have proven to be effective in using educational contexts to improve the capacity for individuals diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The innovative tools apply multiple media and technological elements to capture the attention of students in social interaction, communication, and emotional regulation that lead to further progress in these areas. The study in no uncertain terms posits that digital social stories multiply improvements in social behavior, wane behavioral challenges, and enhance emotional management of children with ASD. New elements such as virtual assistants and animated content make the stories more interesting and easy to tell and, therefore, ease learning with better outcomes. On the other hand, the active involvement and support of parents and the community reinforce these approaches. Therefore, their collaborative efforts are critical to ensure that specialists, teachers, parents, and the community at large can make effective use of and integrate the digital social stories into educational practices. Continuous research and development are necessary to widen the use of these tools to ensure that they meet the specific individual needs of a person with ASD and to help them become fully integrated into society.
