The IMAGINE Checklist App is an informal assessment of more than 60 specific social cognition skills following our IMAGINE framework of social development. This includes:
Initiating interactions, Maintaining interactions, Advocating and negotiating, Getting regulated, Interpreting nonverbal language, Negotiating space and Experiencing humor. Created collaboratively by speech pathologists and occupational therapists, this tool allows for educators to look more thoroughly at social skills to best determine where a breakdown is occurring. Data collection is provided within the app to track progress. Additionally, a customizable comprehensive report can be generated to print and/or email to team members, an easy and efficient way to communicate with parents. Used successfully by the developers for years, this tool is a must have for individuals working with children. The app pairs well with the Social Adventures App, a treasure trove of tried and true intervention activities organized by the same IMAGINE frame.
