EasyChair Preprint 1850

Abstract

The PECS is used to enhance and developing the communication of children with autism. In order to help these children to learn exchange with others and express their desire needs the classical PECS method uses paper images. Each image; represents an action, or an object. With these images the children with autism build a sentence. The traditional PECS method has two major inconveniences; first, the space needed to stock the picture cards and the second is the deterioration of the images after several uses. To resolve these inconveniences, we propose free computer software that allows children with autism to learn to communicate.
