Categories and Subject DescriptorsH.5.2[User Interfaces]: Graphical user interfaces(GuUI),Intereaction StylesD.3.2 [Programming Languages]: Java
General TermsDocumentation
1.INTRODUCTION
This application will teach children the 3RS or the
foundations of a basic skills-orientated education which are
reading, writing and arithmetic. Since it is designed for
kids, we will only be focusing on teaching them the basics
such as letter recognitions, letter to word pronunciation,
writing words, addition and subtraction of 1 to 2 digit
numbers.
This will provide them different levels of learning that the
child could play according to his knowledge. In the
beginning there will be an assessment to determine what
level the child must start and assessments on every lesson
or levels to measure how much did the child has learned.
This will have a sound/voice detector to check the childs
pronunciation.
2.SCOPE AND LIMITATIONS
2.1Scope
Sound/Voice detector to determinepronunciations
Composed of different stages or level todetermine the childs knowledge
Learning Statistics Assessments are in a form of games and quizzes Uses Samsung voice recognition engine
2.2 Limitation
Single User mode Designed for children ages 4 to 6 Will only run in touch screen android phones Internet is needed to be able to use the
pronunciation checker.
3.RELATED WORKS
[1] Teach Me: Kindergarten is an educational app which
allows you can fine tune your child's learning experience.
You can adjust the amount of correct answers a child is
must make in order to earn a reward; you can determine
which awards will be available (most are virtual "stickers"
to place on one of several backdrops.[2] The Teach
Me Kindergarten App provides strong practicing
opportunity sight words, spelling, addition/subtraction,
with rewards (you earn coins and can spend them to buy
stickers to put on screen backdrops). This app keeps track
of the progress of multiple players, and you have the option
to choose which subjects to work on. Also good for
practicing number and letter shapes.
[3] Read Write Phonics teaches children the 44 phonic
sounds of the English language, the letters and letter
combinations which represent them, how the basic phonic
sounds are blended together to form words, and how to
write the letters of the alphabet by tracing dotted letter
forms.
Read Write Phonics has been designed with teaching
children in mind; clear and simple flash cards are used, the
font is the popular Sassoon Infant font developed especially
for childrens first books and traditional learning aids and
the navigation is simple and intuitive, children from as
young as 3 can manipulate the App.

[4] Two important factors considered in this thesis,
Optimized Character Formation on Mobile phones are
providing a visual and audio feedback to language learners.
Visual feedback is an essential part as it provides the
learners the ability to see how an alphabet is written and
audio feedback for listening to the pronunciation of the
alphabets and practicing it. Existing language-learningapplications on Android platform are quiz based and
guessing the words, which are based on the clues provided
by the application. Few other applications provide a rich set
of libraries to translate sentences into foreign languages.
However, these applications have not fully capitalized the
capabilities of touch screen coupled with the power of
mobile-based multimedia.
4.SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
Figure 1: Schematic Representation of how sound
detector will work
Voice recognition engine- accepts voice inputs but needs
internet connection to work
Check pronunciation- it will filter the sound from voice
recognition engine to be able to detect a clear voice.
Decode- the voice will be decoded to text
Match/mismatch-check the text matches the programmed
text on how the word is pronounced (spelling based on how
the word sounds/pronounced)
Voice output- will speak if you are wrong or right
