Abstract
|
|
|
|
In the current study, we compared the language environment and changes in interaction of a child with autism spectrum disorders during robot-mediated instruction, special education classroom, and inclusive classroom for the period of 3-weeks. The results indicate that there were no significant differences between the three conditions except for the amount of silence. As for verbal interaction, numbers of spontaneous communication, word production, and verbal interaction were counted. The results showed that there were no signficant differences between the three conditions, however, all correlation tests proved to be significant across time. We found that in robot condition, spontaneous communication, word production, and verbal interaction started higher than special education or inclusive education settings. However, as time passed, the decrease rate was significantly higher than the other two.
