About

This session will introduce to participants a virtual reality social skills tool for students with social skill deficits.  Available across various platforms (e.g., Chrome, iPad, Oculus), students have the possibility of address social emotional challenges across 10 social skill domains.  Participants will learn about the tool, its alignment to the UDL Framework, and how this can be used by students and their educators to address social skill deficits in a personalized user friendly format. In addition to the virtual reality tool, educators will also learn about a tool that facilitates the practice and generalization of the learning social skill in the “real” classroom.

About

This paper examines how the emerging technologies of Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) are potential UDL resources supporting the Summit Goal of “Identification and dissemination of effective implementation tools.” In less than ten years mobile devices (smartphones & tablets) became common educational tools providing multiple means of representation, action and expression, and engagement. AR and VR are potential new platforms for UDL implementation that need to be incorporated into the existing research- based framework. New AR and VR platforms provide educators unprecedented new resources to support all learners by connecting these tools to the UDL framework.
