List of the Work Packages: Short description per WP & Lead partner
WP2 - Design of the training module and definition of the training content
The main results of WP2 will be:
- The structure of the Training Module that will be incorporated in the PASS4Autism platform. This result will be accessible through the project’s website and will be offered in Greek, Spanish, Italian, and English.
- The Training material and guidelines for parents: the content of this material will focus on the challenges encountered by individuals with ASD, with respect to their understanding of social circumstances and to the meaning and management of behaviours that cause concern. This material aims at increasing knowledge and skills of the parents on understanding and managing the social interaction challenges faced by their children, as well as modifying their attitudes towards the occurrence of these behaviours.
- The Training material for parents: the content of this material will focus on the use of visual stories, for the development of social skills and for facilitating the adaptation to different social environments. It will provide knowledge and promote the development of parental skills on the role, creation and use of simple stories meant to facilitate social understanding and prepare the child for an environmental change or challenge.
The Training material will be developed for an asynchronous self e-learning environment. It will be available in English, Greek, Spanish and Italian.

WP3 - Data collection for stories and stories scenarios
The main result of WP3 concerns the material that will be collected and will be the basis for the story-making tool of PASS4Autism. A catalog of situations and scenarios in which people with autism have difficulty understanding the environment is going to be created.
Another important result is the repository with all the information that will be used by the story-making tool, i.e. texts, images, sketches and videos.
- Leading partner: Autismo Burgos, Spain
WP4 - AI platform development and application
The result of this WP is the Artificial Intelligent (AI) platform for creating visual stories to improve children’s social skills. This online platform will consist of three main parts:
- the training material,
- the story-making tool,
- the support network tool.
The story-making tool will provide parents with the content and guidelines to create visual stories in a semi-automatic way.
The support network tool will be implemented to support asynchronous online discussions between parents and therapists. The topics will cover the main issue of the project i.e. social situations, social skills, as well as discussions about the stories that parents have created using the PASS4Autism AI platform.
Both the AI platform and the support network tool will be accessible through the project’s web site.
- Leading partner: University of Peloponnese, ESDALAB, Greece
