摘要

由於醫療及教育診斷系統的日趨完整，我國鑑定通過的自閉症學生人數逐年攀升，而自閉症學生在社會技巧、抽象及理解等認知能力皆有極大缺陷，因此如何讓自閉症學生能快速理解周遭環境並融入社會互動，理解社會技巧為特殊教育首要任務。虛擬實境為模擬真實環境，讓使用者透過相關設備及裝置進入到模擬情境中，能夠創造一個極度擬真的空間環境，也因此特點，國內外許多學者將該資訊科技及設備系統作為自閉症學生學習社會技巧及環境適應之重要工具。本文透過文獻回顧與目前相關資料整理顯示，虛擬實境應用在自閉症學生的教學上已逐漸成熟。透過虛擬實境的介入，自閉症學生能夠重複演練以彌補實際生活中之弱勢能力與發展適性需求，這其中包含社會技巧、日常禮儀、生活管理及技能培訓等，大部分自閉症學生接受相關教學課程並反覆練習後，在情緒表達與控制、社會認知與互動技巧、生活技能與類化能力皆有所提升。最後經歸納整理，期待本文能對虛擬實境教學應用於自閉症學生社會技巧及生活禮儀方面有所助益，並期待可作為未來發展自閉症學生相關虛擬實境教學之借鏡。

Due to the medical treatment and the educational diagnosis are gradually full, the number of confirmed cases of students with Autism is rising in Taiwan. There are not only serious deficits in social skills but also a tremendous lack of understanding of abstract and cognitive concepts. Therefore, the concept of how to let students with Autism can quickly understand the environment they are being in and fit in the social interaction is the primary mission. There were many types of research applied virtual reality on the early rehabilitation and teaching of students with physical and mental disabilities, students with Autism were one of them, too. Owing to the lack of researches of applying virtual reality on students with Autism in social interaction cases, and the type of researches is only in Question-Answer style which let students with Autism enter the virtual reality to choose the proper or better choice in the social interacting situation. This has very big differences from the researches abroad, which let the students with Autism own the style of open answer and experiences of real interaction. Through the literature review and current related data, this article shows that the application of virtual reality in autistic students has gradually matured. Through the intervention of virtual reality, Autistic students can repeat drills to make up for the weaker abilities in real life. Including social skills, daily etiquette, life management, and skill training, most autistic students have improved their emotional expression and control, social cognition and interactive skills, life skills and categorization skills after receiving relevant teaching and practicing. Through this paper, we hope that we can help virtual reality teaching to apply to the social skills and living etiquette of autistic students, and look forward the conclusion to reference for the virtual reality teaching of autistic students in the future.
