Abstract

This work presents a web service that allows the entity’s professionals to create digital calendars for each of the people affected by some type of autism disorder and work with them through pictograms. With this tool, both therapists and families will be able to create calendars and complete each day of any month of the year with pictograms that describe the scheduled activities. These calendars will be completely adapted to the needs and preferences of the users to whom it is addressed. They will be able to create several calendars for different or even the same person, with all the data hosted in the cloud and accessible from anywhere via the Internet. In addition, this web service provides an integrated online search tool for pictograms, so you can search for all the pictograms that are needed to complete the calendar without leaving the platform.

Keyphrases: attention to diversity, calendar, data storage, digitalization, pictogram, web application
