Although the exact causes of ASD is not yet known, nor is there a medical cure for ASD to date, special facilities and schools have been established to help individuals coping better and becoming more independent. With the advancement in Virtual Reality (VR) technology, there has been a greater depth of development of technology-enhanced game-based learning for children with ASD. This paper will describe our effort to design VR enabled pink dolphins game assisting children with ASD in their learning, at the same time, to avoid the use of physical pink dolphins which is a species endangered for animal assisted intervention. In particular, we will discuss the benefits of this VR technology enhanced and game based learning for children to follow direction, give direction and do hand-eye coordination.","PeriodicalId":298559,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 3rd Asia-Europe Symposium on Simulation & Serious Gaming","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127834517","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
