is to find the most suitable game-based method for children with social impairment
and to develop the courseware to see its effectiveness. This courseware will help the
children to Jearn facial expression and social behaviour targeting children with
Asperger's Syndrome. The methodology used in this project is Rapid Application
Development (RAD) and the tools used for the courseware development are Adobe
Flash, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Soundbooth. Six children are
tested playing this game to see whether there is any improvement in their score.
These children are divided into Asperger' s Syndrome group and control group which
consist of normal children to see their comparison. The result shows that there is
improvement in their scores which indicates that this courseware is effective in
