What is it about?
Virtual reality enables dynamic learning experiences tailored for autism spectrum disorder. Real-time feedback in VR activities enhances student engagement and motivation. Interactive VLEs promote a deeper understanding of STEM and complex educational topics. Realistic VR simulations provide immersive experiences with abstract STEM concepts. Virtual learning spaces improve cognitive, social and behavioural performance in education.

Why is it important?
Virtual Reality (VR) is making education more engaging and accessible, especially for students with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), promoting inclusion and the development of STEM skills in innovative ways. The literature still reveals a significant gap in terms of appropriate educational resources adapted to the specific needs of these students, resulting in difficulties in their inclusion. With the growing need for inclusive approaches in education, it is essential to find solutions to support these students. The aim of this study is to validate the data collection methodology that will enable the development of Virtual Learning Environments with STEM content for students with ASD.
