Abstract

The purpose of the study was to review the recent literature on applying augmented reality based educational contents for students with autism spectrum disorders and to identify research trends and implications. The search procedures through the Web-database system were implemented to find the proper research and a total of 12 studies were included in this review. The results indicated that most of subjects were elementary school-age children, also single subject design was mostly implemented. Mobile devices were used mostly for augmented reality, and most of data collection methods was behavioral observation. Results founded several contents types: objects manipulation, manipulation for self-modeling, on-site problem solving program, and location-based learning guide. Additionally, the results indicated that the educational effectiveness was the improvements of social behaviors, play and imitation behaviors, and emotion recognition. Furthermore, considerations to develop and apply augmented reality based educational contents for students with autism spectrum disorders were suggested.

본 연구는 자폐 스펙트럼 장애 학생을 대상으로 하는 증강현실기반 교육 콘텐츠 연구들을 고찰해 보면서 연구동향과 시사점을 탐색하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 이를 위해 학술 데이터베이스를 활용하여 2006년에서 2016년까지 발표된 논문들을 수집한 후, 선정기준에 적합한 12편의 국외 연구들을 분석 대상으로 선정하였다. 연구결과, 선행연구들은 초등학생들을 대상으로한 연구가 많았으며, 연구설계는 단일대상연구가 가장 많았다. 연구도구로는 증강현실을 위한 모바일 기기가 다수를 차지하고 있었으며, 측정방법으로는 행동관찰방법을 많이 사용하였다. 증강현실기반 교육콘텐츠 유형은 사물조작형, 자기모델링 관찰조작형, 현장문제해결형, 위치기반 학습안내형으로 구분되었다. 교육적 효과는 사회적 행동, 놀이 및 모방행동, 타인에 대한 감정인식의 향상이 주로 나타났다. 마지막으로, 자폐 스펙트럼 장애 학생을 위한 증강현실기반 교육 콘텐츠 개발과 적용을 위한 고려사항을 도출하여 제시하였다.
