一句话:经验报告:为期3周在线游戏开发夏令营如何帮助23名自闭症高中生学习编程、沟通与团队协作,并总结改进建议。
自闭症学生常因社交线索学习困难和缺乏练习机会,在团队协作与沟通技能上处于劣势,而软件行业又重视这些能力。本文是一篇经验报告,作者为23名自闭症高中生组织并运行了为期3周的在线夏令营,以游戏开发为载体,同时训练编程、沟通和团队合作。文章回顾了同类夏令营的已有经验及其教训,说明这些经验如何影响了本次夏令营的设计与实施,并详细记录了运行过程、观察与调整。最后,作者面向教育者和研究者给出经验教训与建议,供未来面向自闭症高中生开展类似编程或游戏开发活动时参考。评估以经验总结和证据驱动的迭代改进为主,未报告对照实验或量化效果。
Teamwork and communication skills are important to have for software development positions. For neurotypical students, their coursework includes activities to help improve their teamwork and communication skills. However, autistic students often struggle with learning how to work as a team and how to communicate with others due to their struggles with learning social cues and lack of opportunities to practice their teamwork skills. In this experience report, we discuss our experiences running an online summer camp for 23 autistic high school students to teach them game development, communication, and teamwork over the course of 3 weeks. We explore previous camps in this space, their lessons learned, and discuss how they have affected the camp described in this paper. We also detail our experiences running this camp, and provide our lessons learned and recommendations for educators and researchers seeking to work with autistic high school students in a similar way.
