Purpose of the study: To evaluate the efficacy of a CAI called MathTutor in helping autistic students to learn addition in mathematics.
Methodology: A pre-post-test experimental model was employed in the study. The study participants included three autistic male students who possessed all the prerequisite skills.
Main findings and novelty: The study participants were found to have been benefitted which indicates that MathTutor improves their learning abilities as an effective instructional strategy. The use of CAI enabled the participants to memorise their lessons and actively take part during the entire lesson.
Applications of this study: The study is beneficial for people involved in caring for autistic students with the help of computer assisted application. This will ease the burden of the carer takers of autistic children in dealing with their conditions while at the same enabling them to navigate the world.
The total number of population in the world will keep on increasing. This will eventually pose challenges towards quality of life for example issues related to healthcare. Hence, a proper solution needs to be devised in order to face the challenges. Internet of Things (IoT), which is one of the digital technologies, that is becoming a trend now can offer promising solution. This paper serves as a short communication in introducing IoT and its application in healthcare domain as well as the analytics combined with the technology. Some examples are presented according to the categories of the application. It must be noted that the analytics play an important role in making the IoT healthcare as a comprehensive solution. At the end of the paper, challenges in making this digital as an accessible solution is discussed.
