SIMPLE AND EFFECTIVE SOCIAL SKILLS TRAINING THERE IS A DANGER THAT CHILDREN AND YOUNG PEOPLE WITH AUTISM WILL ISOLATE THEMSELVES IF THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND THE SOCIAL. The basic difficulty with autism is the social challenges in interacting with others, which can make schooling particularly challenging.
ViMo wants to be a tool that can give children and young people with autism the opportunity to interact with their peers in a good way. This can be done by children and young people gaining more insight into which social skills can increase their likelihood of establishing and keeping friendships and other relationships. VISUAL PROGRAM FOR UNDERSTANDING THE SOCIAL Children and young people with autism spectrum disorders are visually strong and better understand the skills through observing, explaining, training and doing. The method in ViMo has demonstrated a good learning effect in social functioning, language and communication, rigidity and repetitive behaviour.
ViMo will structure the social skills training and can help students to establish and maintain relationships, reduce stress factors and better understand social interaction so that the student functions better in social settings.
