UX in Animation Design for Children with ASD's Emotional Learning: Needs and Challenges

Summary/Abstract: In the context of digital equity, universal and inclusive design are vital for supporting the emotional learning of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). This study draws on 110 questionnaires and three expert interviews to assess the adaptability of current animation‐based user experience (UX) designs for emotional education. The findings reveal that special education schools lag behind mainstream counterparts in the adoption of classroom animations, particularly regarding emotional comprehension and teaching satisfaction. In response, the study proposes an animation‐based UX design framework that integrates multimodal theory, cognitive load theory, and universal design for learning principles. By leveraging visual simplification and tiered interaction strategies, the framework aims to optimize interface design, enhance system accessibility, and improve user experience. These improvements are expected to bridge gaps in digital equity and facilitate better emotional learning outcomes, offering both theoretical insights and practical guidelines for advancing inclusive educational technology.
