项目摘要

Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) account for the largest group of children in English schoolswho receive additional support through an Education, Health and Care Plan. Core characteristics of ASDinclude communication and social interaction difficulties, and behaviours or interests considered to berestricted and/or repetitive, otherwise known as special interests. Therefore, some classroom practices,such as group participation, motivation and engagement, can be challenging for children with ASD,resulting in experiences of exclusion and underachievement.Special interests relate to an increased focus on specific objects or areas of knowledge. Good practiceguidance has suggested that using these interests appropriately within a child's learning can improvetheir motivation and engagement, however there is little research that has directly investigated the roleof special interests in learning.The aim of my proposed research is to explore the concept of embedding special interests into aspects ofteaching to encourage greater motivation for children with ASD. My intention is to identify strategies thatare practical to implement in mainstream school environments and address the following researchquestions:1) What are the different ways special interests are used within classrooms to facilitate motivation andengagement for children with ASD?2) In what ways is it best to approach the implementation of these methods into classrooms to supportthe learning of children with ASD?The outcomes of this research may help to improve the motivation and engagement of children with ASDin education, resulting in positive implications for their achievement and future opportunities.

患有自闭症谱系障碍 (ASD) 的儿童是英国学校中最大的儿童群体，他们通过教育、健康和护理计划获得额外支持。 ASD 的核心特征包括沟通和社交互动困难，以及被认为是受限和/或重复的行为或兴趣，也称为特殊兴趣。因此，一些课堂实践，例如小组参与、动机和投入，对于患有自闭症谱系障碍的儿童来说可能具有挑战性，导致排斥和成绩不佳的经历。特殊兴趣涉及对特定对象或知识领域的更多关注。良好的实践指导表明，在孩子的学习中适当地利用这些兴趣可以提高他们的动机和参与度，但是很少有研究直接调查特殊兴趣在学习中的作用。我提出的研究的目的是探索将特殊兴趣嵌入到教学的各个方面的概念，以鼓励患有自闭症谱系障碍的儿童有更大的动机。我的目的是确定在主流学校环境中实施的实用策略，并解决以下研究问题：1）在课堂上使用特殊兴趣有哪些不同的方式来促进自闭症儿童的动机和参与？2）最好以什么方式在课堂上实施这些方法来支持自闭症儿童的学习？这项研究的结果可能有助于提高自闭症儿童在教育中的积极性和参与度，从而对他们的成就和未来机会产生积极影响。
