Abstract
This papers presents Edushare, a web-based learning environment that has been designed for cognitive remediation applied to autistic children. While existing learning platforms integrate various services in a web-based environment, they meet limitation where specific software must be integrated. Their role is then mostly confined to hosting the external software, without deep integration. Therefore, Edushare a service-rich integration platform, was created. It consists in centralizing within the platform a series of services shared by many educational softwares. These services include data logging, logs visualization, media management or parameterization. As a result, software development benefits from these services and focuses on its core goal, learning activities. This approach is described with a case study concerning facial emotion recognition in autistic children.
