Abstract
Difficulties in social skills are generally considered defining characteristics of High-functioning Autism (HFA). These difficulties interfere with the educational experiences and quality of life of individuals with HFA, and interventions must be highly individualized to be effective. For these reasons, we are interested in exploring the way technologies may play a role in assisting individuals with the acquisition of social skills. In this article we present an approach to developing an authoring tool designed to help parents and other caregivers to create social problem solving skills instructional modules. The authoring tool, which we call REACT, will help non-experts create interactive social scenarios personalized to individual adolescents with HFA. The technology will assist by advising the author on instructional strategies, and on scenario creation.
