Camp Discovery : Objects
Detailed App Info:
Application Description
App Description :
What it is: More than just flash cards, Camp Discovery: Objects teaches over 50 common household and community objects to children through a series of various levels. A pre-reading skills app, Camp Discovery: Objects utilizes unique prompting strategies in order to teach children in the most errorless method possible
How Does It Help: Based on the teaching and reinforcement principles of Applied Behavior Analysis, Camp Discovery: Objects teaches its targeted objects using multiple methods. This ensures that the subject is learned thoroughly by matching identical objects, sorting similar objects, and comprehending the objects’ names respectively. Children must answer questions in each level correctly in order to advance through the game. If a child answers incorrectly, a prompting system is automatically activated that guides the child to answer correctly with help and then independently.
Who is it for: Although Camp Discovery: Objects was designed for children with Autism Spectrum Disorders, all children can benefit from the carefully planned errorless learning system and use of visual and verbal reinforcement. The target age for Objects Game is 2-5 years, depending on the individual child’s abilities.
What makes this different: Camp Discovery: Objects has been developed using the world renowned Center for Autism and Related Disorders (CARD) curriculum. Hours have been spent ensuring that the teaching procedures used will be the most beneficial in having the child acquire new skills while he/she has fun doing it.
What does the interface feel like: The Camp Discovery: Objects was designed for easy interface by the user. All responses require only the touch of a finger or the dragging of a picture in order to be successful. The settings menu is created so that an adult can customize the child’s gaming experience. The time between trials can be modified thus making the game move faster or slower. The time before a trial “times out” (ends due to no response) can also be modified in order to assist children who require more processing time. The specific objects that are to be taught can be turned on and off. Finally, entire levels can be enabled/disabled at the adult’s request if that area is too difficult for the child at that time.
