N2 - This session will focus on computer assisted interviewing (CAI) as one method of consulting with children. There will be a detailed look at a specific CAI package (In My Shoes). This will be followed by critical reflection on the advantages and disadvantages of CAI in consulting with children. Reference will be made to relevant literature and to one case study involving the use of In My Shoes with children with ASD. The session will include consideration of constructions of children and the potential dangers of adopting a mechanistic approach to consultation processes. There will be opportunity for participants to critically reflect on the potential use of CAI in their own professional practice.
