“…According to Zaki et al [8], learning is a problem for children with autism as they tend to have changes in their behavior and tend to be distracted too quickly, which is why the teacher has to look for educational strategies to achieve their concentration during class. Likewise, the authors emphasize the new technological tools, which open the way to a great change in the educational sector, proving that technology can be used in the development of classes.…”

The research focuses on children with Autism, who cannot access education either because they do not have a school near their homes or because they are misinformed by their parents that they can access education regardless of their disability. By not receiving an education, children are deprived of their right to education. The objective is to design a prototype of an educational platform taking advantage of technological tools for the learning of children with special educational needs. A hybrid methodology and the Balsamiq tool were used, as they were appropriate for developing the project. The result is that children with disabilities can learn by interacting with technology and in the same way their parents can visualize some exercises and crafts that they can do at home with their children, since it is based on their educational needs. It is concluded that teachers are in total agreement with the use of technology for children with autism, since this will help to improve their learning. The research contributes to society, teachers and parents with children with autism problems.

“…computer-based intervention was adaptable to the specific learning needs of the individual child and suitable for both home and school. Another cost-effective, portable, and user-friendly interactive learning tool was introduced in Zaki et al (2017), where a pressure sensing keypad was used to provide an easy and flexible means of interaction for children with autism. The effectiveness and usability of this tool were also evaluated.…”

The objective of this article is to design, develop, and evaluate an Internet of Things (IoT)-based serious gaming platform for children with autism spectrum disorder The platform aims to improve the children’s cognitive skills. To attain this research objective, first, a conceptual framework for developing the gaming platform was proposed. Then, the conceptual ideas were materialized by developing three games (a puzzle game, a function card game, and a road crossing game) to be included in the gaming platform, which also incorporated a mobile application and three hardware systems. The hardware platform was used to play the game, and the mobile application was used to select, control, manage, and store the gaming performance and visualize players’ progress. The proposed gaming platform was evaluated with 15 special needs children. We found that the gaming platform was usable, effective, and useful for the children on the spectrum and noticeably contributed to improving their cognitive skills.
