Build a IAA Autism Toolkit web application that will work on any platform (smart phone, tablet, home computer).

Future Work

Develop the web application to include dedicated learning tools (similar to the PECS system in use today). Eg. A system that teaches children how to use money and buy items in a shop, gaining them experience in a stressful real-world activity. Include an activity and behavioural scheduler allowing a parent to monitor their child’s progress and reaction to different teaching techniques.
