Abstract

Sharp memory of growing children is important for education and learning of any new skills. Learning new languages is an important aspect for all children. Kids with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) need extra attention to enhance the memory skills. ASD is a developmental issue that influences communication and social conduct. It leads to the slow development of certain skills in children. The reasons for ASD are yet to obscure; however, it is normal in children having parents of higher age groups. Individuals with ASD generally avoid social communications, lack confidence in the eye to eye contact, fiddle a great deal, and regularly experience the ill effects of other issues like ADHD, OCD, etc.They tend to get distracted very easily. They are often obsessive about particular things and ignorant or indifferent about everything else. ASD does not include mental retardation (MR). Even though individuals experiencing ASD are improper at conveying, they sometimes have a better than average IQ. In this paper, a memory-enhancing mobile game has been designed that would help ASD children to improve the memory and help increase the stock of words that would eventually help in communication skills. The proposed mobile game would help Children diagnose with ASD to increase their memory retention power and help parents’ track their progress using gamification concepts.
