A Smart Tutoring Aid for the Autistic - Educational Aid for Learners on the Autism Spectrum

Smart e-Learning environments are no more novice but have become the order-of-the-day, with the strengths gained and exhibited by the recent technologies. Also, personalization is the current norm with each learner customizing his/her own Learning environments, not only on his interests but also to his tastes. Personalization of the e-Learning environments for the 'Cognitively Disabled' is still to be evolved, as personalization cannot be left to the discretion of the disabled user. It has to be done by the supporting people like the teacher, therapist or the parent. This manual intervention can be minimized, using Self-Learning environments, which can interact with the child, understand him and dynamically personalize the lesson plans, based on his interests, mood and current attention span. Proposing a Smart e-Learning Tutoring model for the Autistic with machine learning capabilities that help in generating dynamic e-Learning sessions, thus maximizing each learner's opportunity to grasp and learn independently.
