"Super School" Computer Game for Students with Disabilities

Overview

This project, funded by the Virginia Board for People with Disabilities, is developing a prototype for an interactive computer game intended to teach students with disabilities how to access assistive technology, strategies and supports for academic success. Players will enroll as fledgling superheroes in a school for superheroes, and game challenges will introduce them to useful approaches to self-efficacy development.

Major Activities

Game development is underway; a focus group of students with disabilities will test the prototype game, once it is complete.
