Abstract
This demo describes an ongoing research project that aims to develop a video game for the training of two independent cognitive components involved in reading development: visual attention and auditory rhythm. The video game includes two types of gaming activities for each component. First, a proof of concept was carried out with 10 children with dyslexia. The outcome of this proof of concept study served as foundation for the development of a prototype that has been assessed. Human-computer interaction, usability and engagement were measured in a user study with 22 children with dyslexia and 22 without dyslexia. Significant interaction differences between group were not found. Usability and engagement evaluation was positive and will be used to improve the video game. Its efficacy will be tested with a longitudinal training study in developing readers. A video of Jellys user testing is available in https://youtu.be/T9oO9bZFdmM.
