Train-Theme App to Teach Emotion Recognition

We featured this app before, but I'm also putting it in this issue. It might be both fun and educational for a student with autism who loves trains!

"With Training Faces, Therese Wantuch said she wanted to create a learning tool that was fun and functional for children with autism. Focused on a passenger train traveling to destinations around the world, the game requires players to match a specified emotion with the correct picture of the passenger’s facial expression. Each session includes four rounds, and each round has a time limit. At the completion of each session, the player will get to see the train complete the route on the map."
