自閉症學童的學習障礙包括情緒失控,生活自理能力較差,社交能力不足,感覺統合失調、認知學習等問題。而自閉症學童的教育與治療包括認知學習和感覺統合能力的訓練。本研究目的是以電腦視覺影像技術,結合網路攝影機為基礎的互動介面,針對自閉症學童設計兩套體感互動遊戲「小廚師」和「垃圾分類」,透過遊戲讓自閉症學童運動身體達到感覺統合協調發展與認知學習之目的。本研究在遊戲完成之後,將遊戲系統提供給自閉症學童進行測試,觀察與評估自閉症學童遊戲和學習的情形。研究發現體感互動遊戲應用於自閉症兒童教學具有結合傳統教材與感覺統合教具的優點;並增強學童的學習動機與反覆學習的次數。
Children with Autism usually has some problems, such as emotional barrier、organizational problems、unable to self-care、cognitive deficit and sensory integration problems. The traditional courses for autistic children consist of cognitive learning and sensory integration training.
