Inspiration
We heard that 1 in 100 students are affected with autism and that they were often belittled. This often has a severe impact on their motivation. To help these children, we created an application called "Autism Awareness" that would help these children improve their cognitive skills with games such as "Memory Match," "Color Mix," and "Image Pick."
What it does
There are three games in this app: Memory Match, Color Mix, and Image Pick which improve different skills. This game is made primarily for people with Autism but it can definitely be played by anyone else!
How we built it
We built this app using Javascript and CodeHS.
Challenges we ran into
This was our first time using CodeHS for creating an App so we had to look through the API's and older projects to refresh our memory. We also had a little trouble with the "Timer" but we figured it out in the end.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We are proud that we were able to create a functioning prototype that incorporated user input, images, timers and much more!
What we learned
We learned that being organized and planning out the application is very important to ensure a successful prototype. We also learned many new methods in Javascript. We put to use our previous skills and new skills to create this App!
What's next for Autism Awareness App
In the future, we plan on adding more games with user input. For example, for the Memory Match game, we plan on adding different levels.
