QTrobot Early Stage Development Curriculum Description:
QTrobot Early Stage Development Curriculum for autism spectrum disorder and special needs education focuses on teaching skills related to the early age development of children in an engaging and step by step manner. The curriculum is organized around 4 main levels, based on Developmental Milestones defined by CDC covering the developmental age of up to 48 months. Each level is broken down into several units covering a variety of skills related to social, cognitive and language development. In each unit, QTrobot practices a new skill over a variety of stimuli and provides the learner with multiple trials to support skill mastery. The skills are then repeated in subsequent units to support the maintenance of the learnt skills.
In addition, QTrobot also actively involves the trainer in the sessions to facilitate the generalization of the skills and support the development of social interaction and collaborative play between the child and the trainer.
