An app to help children with autism
The Ring
The newly released Let鈥檚 Face It 2.0, a scrapbook app developed by the 番茄社区鈥檚 Centre for Autism Research Technology Education (CARTE) and now available free on iTunes, is a powerful educational tool for learning faces and recognizing emotions of the important people in the lives of children on the autism spectrum. 鈥淚t is a selfie culture and I hope our app will be adopted by anyone who finds it useful,鈥 says CARTE director and UVic psychology professor Jim Tanaka. 鈥淧arents and educators can create their own storybook from people and objects in their children鈥檚 lives.鈥
