Análise das contribuições do aplicativo Nick Talk para o ensino de crianças autistas não verbais do ensino fundamental anos iniciais em uma escola de Teresina- PI

Abstract

This Course Conclusion Paper aimed to analyze the contributions of the application (app) Niki Talk to the teaching of non-verbal autistic children from elementary school to early years in a school in the city of Teresina, in the state of Piauí. For this purpose, in addition to the study of the app, field research and the case study were adopted, which took place in the homes of these children due to the coronavirus epidemic. In the course of the research, we presented important concepts of assistive technologies and current legislation on autism and, finally, we concluded that, unlike the free version of the application, in which its use only allows simple interactions for everyday communication, the paid version of the application contains attributes that enable the strengthening of the teaching of autistic children through the use of edited or created albums respecting the specificity of the child to be taught
