This paper reports findings on how the App was used in school classrooms. MyCalendar was evaluated with 11 children in an Australian Autism Special Education Unit over six months and was found to stimulate excitement with video and photo sharing as well as interaction in specific classroom activities. Our previous work examined interactions between home and school, and interactions at home supported by MyCalendar. This analysis focuses entirely on interactions at school by examining data from classroom activities. Three findings revealed: (1) the MyCalendar application supports learning activities in the classroom and facilitates the inclusion of children with ASD who have limited verbal skills. The sharing of each child's personal experience enabled the teachers and children to form a common basis for communication and adding vocabulary, as well as allowing the teacher to model language so as to identify children's emotions; (2) MyCalendar allowed children with limited verbal skills to better communicate their real interests through photos and videos. This enabled the teacher to better identify each child's interest and thereby scaffold more relevant and meaningful learning; (3) Understanding interests enabled teachers to successfully motivate children to interact more in formal learning activities. While it was initially expected the activities would better support communication between teacher and children, the larger and unanticipated effect has been to create opportunities for structuring and scaffolding communication and social interaction in the classroom. © 2017 Association for Computing Machinery.
