Virtuoso is an immersive 3D learning intervention for youth with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). This immersive learning intervention adopts a multidimensional approach for providing learners with ASD the ability to acquire both social competencies and life skills in a safe environment that can be manipulated so as to reduce input stimuli and adapt to learner needs.

The aims of Virtuoso include (1) reducing barriers and promoting independence and self-efficacy; (2) providing explicit, direct instruction related to social competencies; and (3) creating an immersive virtual space that is safe, controllable, and highly accessible. To this end, Virtuoso is being developed using a participatory design approach. Researchers, intervention specialists, and graduate students are working together with individuals with ASD in an young adult day program to design an intervention program of curricular and technological supports.
