Involvement of Children with Autism and Their Families
Children with autism and their families were part of the development process and played a major role in content selection, UI design, system usability and much more. The process was aimed at ensuring that the system and content will optimally serve the needs of the target audience, namely highly functioning children with autism, aged 4 and up.
Effectiveness
The effectiveness of the learning content was tested on groups of autistic children. The results indicated that using the system significantly improved their emotion recognition abilities as well as general socio-emotional indicators.
