Open Source • “In order to design ICT tools specifically for individuals with autism … and that, honestly speaking, makes the task quite challenging” • Miklos Gyori associate professor, ELTE University • => • The best ICT tools are the ones which are designed and implemented specifically to the single individual with ASD • The most valuable softwaredesigner is the teacher, who knows the single individual with ASD • Reallife implication • Two levels of designers: metadesigners and designers • Teachers are offered different services/components, which can be customised Persuasive Technology and Open Source
