Really excited to be starting soon (and despite the COVID pandemic!) an ambitious study in one of Bristol's schools for children on the autism spectrum. The project has already generated a fair bit of excitement, and I am both happy and lucky to work on it with the great UWE colleagues Nigel Newbutt and Louis Rice.
First focus groups with teachers and pupils slated for January 2021, with the study (we will leave a social robot for 3 weeks in the school) starting next Spring. (...in the meantime, programming time for me!)
