Given the interest of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in using computers, this study examined the effect of Digital Storytelling (DST) activity on increasing activity participation and self-regulation. In this study, children with ASD and typically developing children were allowed to participate in DST workshops together. Selection of children intervention Children diagnosed with ASD and typically developing children attending Zeytinburnu Municipality Family Women Support and Disability Center (AKDEM) were included. The study was completed with a total of 15 children with ASD and 12 children with TD. In person-centered occupational therapy training with sensory integration, strategies including calming and reinforcing stimuli were identified to facilitate the social adaptation of children with autism and their participation in digital story activities. In the digital storytelling workshop, the Wevideo editing program was used. All participants were provided with an easy and fun application to express themselves by preparing stories with short videos about their lives, and the results were evaluated. This study emphasizes that children with autism spectrum disorder can successfully express their emotional expression skills and interests through digital stories. Digital stories are an essential tool to help these children express themselves. These findings may help educators and families working with children with ASD to develop new strategies to improve emotional expression skills and may serve as a basis for future studies.
