E-Learning Ecosystems for People With Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Systematic Review

2023

E-Learning Ecosystems (ELE) offer excellent opportunities to manage teaching activities by incorporating state-of-the-art technologies, practices, and professional support, as well as learning and assessment resources that can be adaptive. Therefore, it can help people with disabilities or conditions such as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) to develop skills. However, some technological factors prevent this population's implementation of support scenarios and hinder the proper learning process. This paper systematically reviews relevant studies on E-Learning Ecosystems for people with ASD, identifying the influence of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) on forming ELE and the technological barriers that affect their development and appropriate use on people with ASD. This work conducted a systematic review using the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) methodology, including a search of five scientific literature databases from 2017 to 2022. The main aspects identified were 1) a shortage in design guides for the implementation of e-learning ecosystems adapted for people with ASD, 2) technological barriers that prevent the development of ELE, and 3) recommendations that help to mitigate the limitations of this field. In addition, the authors identified that the skills with the most significant focus of interest were social, communicative, and cognitive. The most implemented technologies include virtual and augmented reality or mobile applications. Most studies involved children with ASD between 8 and 15 years, followed by works with children between 5 to 8 years. Very few researches linked adults with ASD. Very few studies mention the ASD level of the participants, but most highlight the positive results of implementing ICT in training processes.

“…To improve teaching quality, online learning platforms and teachers have been actively integrating Internet information technology into information teaching mode. Apart from that, they need to pay attention to the formative evaluation of the learning process, which can effectively measure the achievements and progress of college students in online learning, and further optimize the teaching contents and process [14][15][16][17]. The formative evaluation should be implemented with broad contents.…”

To measure the achievements and progress of college students in online learning, online learning platforms and teachers must pay attention to the formative evaluation of the learning process. The relevant data should be fully utilized to analyze the online English learning behavior of college students, such that online learning platforms and teachers can make formative evaluation of the students’ online learning. However, the existing studies on formative evaluation are mostly theoretical. To solve the problem, this paper explores the formative evaluation of college students’ online English learning based on learning behavior analysis. Firstly, the density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise (DBSCAN) was adopted to analyze the data samples of college students’ online English learning behavior, the evaluation indices were selected for the formative evaluation of the said behavior, and the index weighting method was explained in details. Next, the school precaution function of online English learning was realized through the graph structure data prediction of students’ online learning behavior. Based on the proposed graph neural network, the clustering Euclidean distance weight was introduced to measure the similarity between two nodes. In addition, the weight update process was illustrated for the distance weight-based attention mechanism. The proposed formative evaluation approach was proved effective through experiments.
