Dissertation Proposal Interim Report: Cloud-Based Autism Interventions

This dissertation proposal interim report evaluates the value of a cloud-based approach to autistic interventions. The report begins by highlighting the increasing prevalence of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and the impact on individuals and their families. It then presents a Google Form survey designed to gather feedback on a cloud-based intervention model that incorporates virtual reality, digital libraries, and artificial intelligence. The survey explores respondents' awareness of autism, their familiarity with existing digital applications for ASD, and their opinions on the proposed cloud-based technology. The questionnaire covers various aspects, including the perceived shortcomings of current applications, the potential benefits of cloud-based solutions, and factors influencing the adoption and pricing of such applications. The report aims to assess the feasibility and potential effectiveness of the cloud-based approach in supporting individuals with autism and improving their independence. The survey results are intended to inform the ongoing research and development of the intervention model.
