ZacZoo/DTT/Autism

About ZacZoo/DTT/Autism Android App

ZacZoo is a discrete trial training (DTT) based application. DTT is a learning technique used by autism behavioral instructors to provide basic understanding of key early concepts. DTT is a card matching drill. ZacZoo is basic no frills DTT. It does not provide all aspects of DTT but it includes what our team thinks are the initial steps of a successful comprehension of basic themes. ZacZoo limits the users to a range of one to five cards. It provides the student with a card intended for match. The student, through a trial and error process, has the ability to drag their card to its counterpart. ZacZoo provides themed cards for colors, shapes, numbers, and letters. A static set of each theme allows the student to get started on the DTT process. The user can choose theme, trials, focus card, and total cards. The student will be prompted for correct or incorrect selection. Matching is card and voice based with drag and drop like functionality.

ZacZoo is inspired by Zac, an autistic child, and created by his parents and friends in hopes of sharing an automated version of Zac's first big leap forward. More on Zac's journey at www.zaczoo.com (coming soon).
