Research abstract
IAI will develop and field test StoryTiles, a device with programmable manipulatives that foster language, sequencing, theory of mind, and play skills among children with autism. Children will be able to use this device to experiment with storytelling, and in doing so, work with sequencing, creative play, and language structures as they manipulate programmable, tangible objects.
