Best practice guidelines for developing software-based educational interventions are discussed, with a major emphasis on facilitating the generalisation of skills to contexts outside of the software itself, and on maintaining these skills over time. Further, the book presents the software solution Thinking Head Whiteboard, which provides a framework for families and educators to create unique educational activities utilising virtual character technology and customised to match learners' needs and interests. In turn, the book describes the development and evaluation of a social tutor incorporating multiple life-like virtual humans, leading to an exploration of the lessons learned and recommendations for the future development of related technologies. 001437355 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed June 23, 2021). 001437355 650_0 $$aIntelligent tutoring systems. 001437355 650_0 $$aVirtual reality in education. 001437355 650_0 $$aAutistic children$$xEducation. 001437355 650_0 $$aSocial skills$$xStudy and teaching. 001437355 650_6 $$aTutoriels. 001437355 650_6 $$aRéalité virtuelle en éducation. 001437355 650_6 $$aEnfants autistes$$xÉducation. 001437355 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001437355 7001_ $$aPowers, David M.
