VOISS is a development, implementation, and research project through the University of Kansas, Special Education Department, and the Center for Research on Learning. Our goals are to build upon the virtual reality environment called VOISS, which is an acronym that stands for Virtual realities to Integrate Social Skills. VOISS is a computer-based virtual reality experience across multiple school-based environments (e.g., classroom, bus, hallways) where students move through social stories and are presented with social stories and social situations where they need to problem solve interactions. As they react and respond to situations, VOISS offers explicit feedback on student decisions, reflecting on the appropriateness of the decision and how to potentially problem solve in the future. VOISS is designed for iPads, Google Chromebooks, laptops, and soon, wearable virtual reality devices.

This is Part 1 of the VOISS experience and
contains the first five of ten domains to explore, including:
1. Self-Awareness & Advocacy (SAA)
2. Self-Regulation Skills (SRS)
3. Critical Thinking & Problem Solving (CTPS)
4. Executive & Organizational Skills (EOS)
5. Receptive Communication Skills (RCS)

Please continue with VOISS Part 2 to access the remaining domains.
