Using mobile game application to teach children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) multiple cues responding: A pilot study

摘要

The ability to respond to concurrent multiple cues is one of the common challenges faced by children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). This pilot study observed the efficacy of the application tool “Go-Go-Games” (in the iOS platform), which was designed to teach a skill known as multiple cues responding to children with ASD. This study was conducted upon six children with ASD. This research focused on applying the tool on children with ASD to observe the positive effect of the “Go Go Games” application on the selected participants. An observation with the aim to test the students' response based on the levels achieved in the game was conducted. The results indicated that this application might be an effective technology for helping children with ASD.
