Abstract
This paper describes the process undertaken to develop software that allows children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) to explore social situations, in particular the concept of sharing. The User-Centred Design (UCD) process is described, along with adaptations made to alleviate anxiety resulting from the reduced social skills seen in ASD.
