Abstract
Communication among children with their parents or caregivers is the most important element in the learning process. However children with impairment such as cerebral palsy (CP) children, the process is challenging due to various incapability. Recently, assistive technology has been used to help these audience through mobile applications by adapting the requirement with the needs. In this study, observation and interviews held with the first prototype of CommelApps to small number of CP children and their parents. The findings will be used to create the second prototype for the development of the complete CommelApps mobile application that focusing on the assistive technology for specific users. � 2021 IEEE.
