description Nowadays, in the educational field, a current pattern is Special Educational Needs which refers to the kind of education focus to support students that require more accompaniment to facilitate their learning due to the fact that they present a variety of situations; one of those cases is the population that this study will have, Autism Spectrum Disorder. Therefore, as the ASD population struggles with interaction with other humans beings, the aim of this research was to create a space of learning in which the mobile App Speech Blubs was the intermediary between the teacher and a child with Atypical Autism and to explore the potential benefits of the mobile application in fostering his/ her English language skills. Thus, qualitative research was proposed using as design a case study since this research had only one unit of analysis. The researchers assumed the roles of moderate and active participation. In addition, this research used the following data collection instruments: field diary, observation, artifacts (Multiple-Baseline-Across-Behaviors Design and Before and After Designs), and a Rubric for the evaluation of apps in language learning (REALL). The findings of this study revealed that using the adequate scaffolding connected to the technological input contributed to the English vocabulary learning. Additionally, the prior knowledge and good management of technology of the student allowed a better development of the learning process. Finally, it was discovered that there are some external factors that made normal classes difficult.

Por lo tanto, dado que la población con TEA enfrenta dificultades en la interacción con otros seres humanos, el objetivo de esta investigación es crear un espacio de aprendizaje en el cual la aplicación móvil Speech Blubs sea el intermediario entre el docente y un niño con Autismo Atípico, y explorar los posibles beneficios de la aplicación móvil para fomentar sus habilidades en el idioma inglés. Por lo tanto, se propone una investigación cualitativa utilizando como diseño un estudio de caso, ya que esta investigación tendrá solo una unidad de análisis. Los investigadores asumirán los roles de participación moderada y activa. Además, esta investigación utilizará los siguientes instrumentos de recolección de datos: diario de campo, observación, artefactos (Diseño de Múltiples Líneas de Base en Varios Comportamientos y Diseños Antes y Después), y una rúbrica para la evaluación de aplicaciones en el aprendizaje de idiomas (REALL). Los resultados de este estudio revelaron que el uso adecuado del andamiaje en conexión con el aporte tecnológico contribuyó al aprendizaje de vocabulario en Inglés. Además, el conocimiento previo y buen manejo de herramientas tecnológicas por parte del estudiante permitieron un mejor desarrollo del proceso de aprendizaje. Finalmente, se descubrió que algunos factores externos dificultaron el normal desarrollo de las clases.Table of Contents Abstract 3 Acknowledgements 5 Statement of the Problem 10 Objectives 14 General Objective 14 Specific Objectives 14 Theoretical Framework 15 Literature Review 15 Conceptual Framework 26 Special Educational Needs 26 Information and Communications Technology (ICT) 29 Methodology 34 Type and design of study 34 Context 35 Participants 35 Data Collection Instruments 36 Researchers' role 40 Moderate participation 40 Active participation 40 Methodological Approach 41 FOSTERING ENGLISH SKILLS: SPEECH BLUBS IN AN AUTISTIC CHILD 7 Lesson Plan Sample 42 Data Analysis 43 Findings 4 The prior knowledge of the English language prompted the student’s response to the instructional scenarios 45 The use of Speech Blubs and the scaffolding of the teacher allowed the interaction and eased verbal and non-verbal communication 47 The student's good management of technological devices contributed to the interaction and adequate response to Speech Blubs 50 The external factors influenced the learning environment affecting the student’s focus span 52 Conclusions 54 Research Implications 57 Pedagogical Implications 59 Assessing Speech Blubs through the Rubric 61 Content quality 62 Pedagogical coherence 62 Motivation 63 Usability 64 Customization 64 Sharing 65 References 67 Appendices 76PregradoLicenciado(a) en Bilingüismo con Énfasis en Inglés76 Páginasapplication/pdfengUniversidad Tecnológica de PereiraLicenciatura en Bilingüismo con Énfasis en InglésFacultad de Bellas Artes y HumanidadesPereira370 - Educación::371 - Escuelas y actividades; educación especialAutism Spectrum DisorderSpecial Educational NeedsSpeech BlubsMobile applicationEnglish Language TeachingThe Implementation of Speech Blubs App in Fostering English Language Skills of a Child with AutismTrabajo de grado - Pregradoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersionhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_7a1fTextinfo:eu-repo/semantics/bachelorThesisAlqahtani M.
