Mixed feelings – Between the Lines Level 1 Lite HD Review

I have a child with HF-ASD. I imagine,like me, you are choosing this app to teach pragmatics. The lessons are set up wonderfully. The child can work at his own pace and can repeat the videos or audio as needed. Also nice is the gentle prompt of an incorrect answer with an x in the choice-nothing more. What I didn't like about the app and the reason I will not use it with my son has to do with the reward game. In this game, the user taps a button to throw a ball at a dunk tank to dunk a cartoon man into the tank. Where the ball hits is random (ie the users cannot control it), there're are more misses than hits, and when the user misses the man makes negative poor sportsmanship type comments such as "ha ha", "you missed" in a teasing tone. The kids who have trouble with pragmatics should be provided a positive role model as THIS is what we are trying to teach! Perhaps if the developers change this cartoon man's attitude, I will use the app with my son but there is no way I am going to teach him that poor sportsmanship is a reward!
