A Preliminary Study on the Metaverse in Empowering Educational Intervention for Autistic Children
The brain of autistic children exhibit abnormalities in mirror neuron systems,resulting in the limited teaching effectiveness of traditional education.The virtual and real symbiotic mirror world created by the integration of metaverse and digital technology has undoubtedly provided a"timely assistance"role for the educational intervention of autistic children.Under this context,the paper first deeply analyzed the adaptability of metaverse in empowering educational intervention for autistic children,established it as the premise of research.After that,the paper constructed the technical framework of metaverse in empowering educational interventions for autistic children,in order to technically realize the transition of educational intervention for autistic children from the avoidance of the mirroring stage to the reshaping of the mirroring stage.At the same time,this paper designed an evidence-based implementation process of"intervention implementation-effect evaluation-strategy adjustment",to guide the execution of specific interventions.Finally,relying on the concept of the metaverse,an educational intervention system for autistic children based on digital twins was developed and the teaching application was carried out.The results showed that the system can improve the social language ability of autistic children,and the maintenance effect was good.
