Abstract

Teaching and learning for autistic students during the COVID-19 pandemic pose challenges for educators. This systematic literature review (SLR) aimed to explore the effectiveness of virtual teaching and learning (VTL) by employing the reporting standards for systematic evidence syntheses (ROSES) framework. Articles from databases like Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar were systematically examined, focusing on themes such as support, coping strategies, teaching methods, flexibility, and communication. The review identified 14 sub-themes within these categories, providing tailored coping and teaching strategies for parents, teachers, and caregivers working with autistic students. From 706 initially identified articles, 376 were selected, with 17 specifically relevant to virtual teaching for autistic students during the pandemic. These findings contribute insights to the existing literature and offer practical implications to enhance VTL experiences for autistic students facing pandemic challenges.

Abstract

The proportion of the global population aged 60 and above is projected to nearly double by 2050, emphasizing the urgent need for societies to adapt to the challenges posed by an aging population. As the elderly increasingly face difficulties in navigating digital technologies, which are essential for daily tasks and accessing services, the digital divide often leads to digital exclusion. This scoping review investigates intergenerational strategies used to teach technology to older adults. Seventeen studies from 11 countries were analyzed, highlighting six key intergenerational learning strategies: reverse mentoring, virtual learning, collaborative learning, family intergenerational activities, game play learning, and storytelling. These strategies offer diverse methods for enhancing digital literacy and social engagement, with reverse mentoring showing promise in fostering digital competence, and virtual learning promoting inclusivity across generations. However, barriers such as technological access, ongoing support, and cultural differences complicate implementation. This review underscores the importance of adapting instructional approaches to the needs of the elderly while leveraging intergenerational interactions to bridge the digital literacy gap. It calls for sustained efforts to address user needs, provide technical support, and ensure inclusivity, especially for isolated individuals, to maximize the effectiveness and sustainability of these strategies.
