Everything from reading instruction for students using alternative and augmentative communication to noise-reducing technology for autistic students is being explored in the new projects. Get to know the doctoral research fellows in DeveLeP and their groundbreaking work that will shape the learning environments of the future.
A workshop on “Methodological innovations for interdisciplinary research and practice”, will be held in June, by Fredrik Andersen and the Methodological Innovation Network around the North Sea (MINANS). You can contribute and submit an abstract.
As part of his PhD-project Anders Dechsling and colleagues recently published an article where they have reviewed available evidence on the use of Virtual Reality in interventions for autistic children. Together with researchers from the research group DeveLeP at Østfold University College and international collaborators, Dechsling found that there were a lot of studies investigating VR-interventions for autistic children. However, none of them utilize interventions with the most support in the research literature.
