Resumo


Para crianças com Transtorno do Espectro Autista situações que exigem tanto habilidades sociais quanto motoras, como ações conjuntas, podem ser complexas, uma vez que são sensíveis aos estímulos externos, incluindo comunicação, interação, cooperação, toque físico, lugares desconhecidos, entre outros. Diante disso, há evidências na literatura, indicando que experiências vividas em Ambientes Virtuais 3D podem contribuir para a mitigação de alguns dos sintomas mencionados, encorajando a comunicação e a colaboração. A partir disso, este artigo tem como objetivo apresentar a proposta de um jogo sério 3D com técnicas treinamento motor fino a partir de técnicas identificadas na literatura. O jogo, denominado ”Dividir e Conquistar”, tem como objetivo encorajar a colaboração de crianças com Transtorno do Espectro Autista.

Palavras-chave: crianças com TEA, habilidades motoras finas, jogos sérios, jogos colaborativos, sessões de terapia
