“…Before the start of each interview, the interviewer demonstrated the main features of VPTs by creating an example animation program using Scratch. Then the interview was conducted with questions asked around the observed behaviours and difficulties associated with using VPTs identified by a previous study by the authors that evaluated the accessibility of Scratch for children with learning disabilities and ASC [40]. Specifically questions were asked around: the occurrence of difficulties, i.e.…”

“…Overall, the literature was found to contain few studies on the use and benefits of VPTs by children with ASC, and the few that exist involve individuals with no reported associated learning disability. However, the accessibility evaluation of Scratch conducted by Zubair et al [40] observed seven participants with learning disabilities, five of whom were also diagnosed with ASC, using Scratch to create stories; and also interviewing their class teachers after these observations had taken place. Findings from the observations revealed that the participants struggled with a number of user-interface, and cognition-related accessibility issues.…”

“…Observational data of five children with ASC collected during an initial study on evaluating the usability of Scratch for children with cognitive impairments (Zubair et al , 2018) was used for this study. The data consist of video screen recordings of each participant using Scratch to create stories.…”
