Abstract
An early intervention application that flexibly delivers a set curriculum of automated lessons based on research about childhood development. The software also has the ability to monitor and analyze the child's progress on a daily basis. It contains exercises specially designed to improve a child's ability to integrate multiple cues. Such training has been shown to transfer, over time, to the acquisition of a full syntactic language, and ultimately to the individual's ability to engage with the world and lead a productive, independent life.
