Abstract

Children characterized with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) demand special attention to care in their daily lives, including during the school teaching and learning process. Teaching autistic children requires the use of differentiated methods and tools due to the cognitive, social and communicative difficulties of these individuals. Therefore, in this study, we evaluated several published studies that deal with therapeutic interventions applied to autistic children, which are supported by computational resources. This type of approach is effective in increasing the development of various skills, allowing for the advancement of the child's learning and enhancing the educator's work in his teaching practice. This work presents a systematic mapping of the literature with the purpose of investigating and interpreting the trends and gaps in the advances in the use of computational technologies for teaching children with ASD. The results of this research and work generated theoretical basis for decision making in relation to future research questions. The results indicate that the technological tools significantly increase the development of the teaching of children with autism. It is also highlighted that it has been identified that mobile technologies are adopted as the main technological instrument in the teaching and learning process.
