“…The teachers responded for themselves but also on behalf of students with autism and reported that the application was easy to use and they also expressed high levels of satisfaction. Tsiopela and Jimoyiannis (2014) used technology to teach pre‐vocational skills to older students with autism in a special vocational school. They found some positive effects from the implementation of a two‐month web‐based instructional intervention; more precisely, they reported that autistic students with various levels of autism severity acquired a number of pre‐vocational skills such as carpentry, ceramics, tailoring and gardening after having attended a few personalised sessions of limited duration.…”

This paper considers recent evidence on autism education in Greece in order to shed light on current developments and attitudes. Given the increase in relevant research in the country, a scoping review to identify topics that have been explored so far and propose areas for future research and implications for practice is timely and necessary. Peer-reviewed papers published between 2000 and 2019 were identified via electronic databases and their main themes were analysed. Themes related to autistic individual (i.e. the voice of autistic individuals and intervention studies), the family around them (i.e. the role of family and stigma), the role of teachers (i.e. teacher training and teacher stress levels) and the wider society (i.e. parent-teacher collaboration, the medical/deficit model of disability and inclusion) emerged from the review. The above themes are discussed in the light of the cultural characteristics of Greece and the recent economic crisis the country underwent as well as similar findings from other European countries.

“…The remaining article examined the outcomes of AR on prevocational skills (e.g., grouping, sorting, arranging in a vocational setting). Tsiopela and Jimoyiannis (2014) utilized a nonimmersive, web-based VR designed to address the following five skills: (a) sorting objects, (b) grouping objects, (c) creating patterns, (d) placing objects in positions, and (e) assembling objects.…”

“…Academically, only one researcher sought ways to address curricular content within a VR system. Tsiopela and Jimoyiannis (2014) presented a web-based VR intervention to students with ASD. Researchers found the intervention to have a positive impact on practicing and developing prevocational skills (e.g., organizing, sorting).…”

Virtual reality (VR) technology has improved in access and availability in the area of K–12 instruction, increasingly being cited for its promise to meet the varied learning needs of individuals with disabilities. This descriptive review of 25 research studies conducted in K–12 settings examined the defining characteristics of immersion levels associated with VR, the purpose and application of the augmented reality intervention, the outcomes associated with the current use of VR, and the possibility of generalization beyond VR. The results of the review reveal that a majority of studies are utilizing nonimmersive screen-based simulations. While still considered under the VR domain, these technologies do not take advantage of the features of semi- and fully immersive VR which make it an appealing intervention for students with disabilities. Based on the results of this review, we provide recommendations to establish a strong research base on emerging VR technology and its use for students with disabilities in the K–12 classroom.

“…Kaedah humor dengan menggunakan bahan juga menunjukkan para peserta kajian kerap menggunakan bahan untuk mewujudkan unsur humor dalam pengajaran mereka. Selari dengan kajian lalu yang menyatakan bahawa humor boleh dihasilkan dengan menggunakan bahan yang sesuai (Shade,1996;Abdul Rasid, 2013;Tay, 2015;Abdul Rasid et al, 2015;Abdul Rasid et al, 2016). Ini disokong lagi dengan pendapat pengkaji lalu bahawa humor melalui bahan membantu guru dalam sesi pengajaran (Norul, 2017 ;Farhanah, 2018).…”

Penyelidikan ini adalah mengenai kaedah humor dalam pengajaran guru Bahasa Melayu di Sekolah Rendah. Pendekatan kajian yang digunakan adalah menggunakan kajian kualitatif. Manakala reka bentuk kajian adalah fenomenologikal. Instrumen yang digunakan dalam melaksanakan pengumpulan data adalah temu bual separa berstruktur, rakaman audio pengajaran dan analisis dokumen. Pemilihan peserta kajian seramai empat orang adalah secara bertujuan dan berdasarkan kriteria humor yang ditentukan oleh penyelidikan berpandukan kajian-kajian lepas mengenai humor dalam pengajaran. Analisis data telah dilaksanakan dengan menggunakan analisis tematik. Tema-tema yang dihasilkan adalah berdasarkan pengulangan elemen berdasarkan data yang diperoleh melalui hasil analisis dapatan daripada data verbatim para peserta kajian. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahawa kaedah humor dalam pengajaran oleh peserta kajian adalah sesuai dengan konteks pengajaran Bahasa Melayu dan juga kepada para murid dalam suasana Pengajaran dan Pemudahancaraan Bahasa Melayu. Tema yang muncul daripada elemen dan kategori yang dihimpunkan ialah terdiri daripada tiga tema iaitu kaedah humor secara komunikasi, kaedah humor menggunakan bahan dan kaedah humor secara variasi pengajaran. Kesimpulannya, para peserta kajian menggunakan humor yang bersesuaian dan boleh diterima oleh murid di sekolah rendah. Kaedah humor yang digunakan juga adalah seiring dengan konsep pembelajaran menyeronokkan serta kaedah didik hibur yang ditekankan dalam Kurikulum Standard Sekolah Rendah bagi mata pelajaran Bahasa Melayu. Justeru, dapatan yang diperoleh daripada penyelidikan ini adalah diharapkan untuk dicadangkan sebagai satu panduan pengajaran penggunaan humor dalam pengajaran oleh guru Bahasa Melayu di sekolah rendah bermula daripada pendedahan di peringkat Jabatan Pelajaran Negeri seterusnya di peringkat Pejabat Pendidikan Daerah dan latihan dalaman di peringkat sekolah rendah kelak.
