Virtual Reality as a Support Tool for the Processes of Education and Work Integration of People with Down Syndrome

Within the framework of this project, which was financed by IMSERSO (Ministry of Employment and Social Affairs) and by the Ministry of Industry, Commerce and Tourism, the tool ‘A picture is better than a thousand words’ was developed and this was aimed at previously training people with intellectual disability who are looking for work in social skills, work responsibilities and personal image. The collaboration of the ‘AURA Project Foundation’ (Barcelona) and the Audiovisual Workshop of the University of Valencia has been essential for the creation of the aforementioned tool.
