    Assistive Learning Platform for Children with Down Syndrome
    (IEEE, 2020-11-04) Wellala, S; Thathsarani, S. A; Senaratne, D; Samaranayake, P; Jayakody, A
    Down Syndrome (DS) is a genetic disorder. Researchers believe that persons with DS generally have poor logical knowledge, communication, motor skills, and skills needed for everyday life. The proposed system is a web-based assistive learning platform for children with DS to address those problems. It provides an excellent opportunity for learning educational subjects, including math and language. The authors also created interactive modules improving their health habits, social skills, and motor skills. Since the authors deeply consider their requirements, the system was developed by providing excellent features with those modules. Users' faces can be recognized to keep their attention with the system, thereby suggesting and referring their most interesting content according to their emotions while using the system. Also, the dashboard can analyze user data. Most importantly, it capable of assessing the users through the system. Here the research team has assessed 50 children with DS, and 31 showed improvement after using the system. Therefore, the proposed system with all these modules and features can be introduced as a very productive assistive learning platform in Sri Lanka.
