This book investigates the intersection of technology and heritage, focusing on the use of immersive techniques (digital storytelling, gamification, extended reality) to develop more inclusive and engaging experiences in museums and heritage sites for neurodiverse audiences. Through the four sections (Storytelling; Gamification; Immersive Technologies; Inclusivity and Environment), the authors discuss how storytelling techniques can support accessibility; explore the advantages of game-based learning and treasure hunts to engage and educate diverse audiences; examine the impact of immersive technologies; and investigate the use of sensory kits, social stories, sensory maps, and immersive storymaps to create accessible and inclusive heritage experiences.
