abstract = {The use of mobile devices in teaching and learning has intensified in this era of information and communication technology. The utilization of mobile learning application created learning beyond the boundaries of four wall of the traditional classrooms. The mobile learning application can be used everywhere at any time. This fits the restraint of the children with autism. The development lifecycle used to develop the working prototype, was adapted from ADDIE lifecycle which consists of five phases; analysis, design, development, implementation and evaluation. This paper objectively presents the development phase of the Math4Autism development lifecycle. Math4Autism is a prototype of mobile learning application developed for the children with Autism to learn basic numbers, basic shapes and sizes. This paper discusses the tools used in developing the working prototype and presents the menu hierarchy for the prototype. The working prototype was tested to ensure its functionality works and free from errors. The result shows that the working prototype is ready to be tested to the real users. © 2016 IEEE.},

abstract = {Autism is a neural syndrome that complicates the growth of mind, producing challenging result in communicating, social interaction, and impairment in behaviour. Since there is no cure for autism, prompt interventions and effective educational exercises allow children to achieve massive improvement. During the teaching and learning process, children with autism require particular consideration and attention. Thus, with the implementation of information technology in special education, the teaching and learning process could to become more efficient. Struggle in social interaction skill is known as one of the main drawback encountered by children with autism. Therefore, a mobile social application is proposed to help the children to develop social interaction skills. Nonetheless, this paper only deliberates on the design phase mobile application development. It is developed for children with medium functioning Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) who are learning basic interaction skills. The application's design phase implements the results from the analysis phase, which has concluded earlier. Five evaluators were involved in the heuristic evaluation, in order to enhance the user interface of the mobile social application. The outcomes from the evaluation conclude that all evaluators has agreed with all heuristics. Not to mention, beneficial recommendations were also achieved from the evaluation. The future work of this paper will be the development phase of the mobile social application. © 2016 IEEE.},

abstract = {Special children are children who experience learning difficulties. Special children include those under Down syndrome, autism, global delay, epilepsy and slow learner. In this study, the special children are referring to children with Down syndrome. Early intervention program is a systematic program with therapy, exercises, and activities which designed to help special children. Cognitive development is the construction of thought processes, including thinking, problem solving, concept understanding, and decision-making, from childhood through adolescence to adulthood. It is one of the most important skills that have to be developed for Down syndrome children. This study is focused mainly on development of the cognitive ability support system. The aim is to help them improving their logical thinking and memory skills. In brief, this study is about the development of software system for the cognitive ability. This includes the implementation of the radio frequency identification (RFID) reader and graphical user interface. The complete system is then test to ensure the accuracy of result, user acceptability and reliability of the system. The results show that the system can generate result in graphical form and training for improving the cognitive ability of the children. In conclusion, the system can be used in order to help trainers or parents to improve the cognitive ability of children with Down syndrome.},
