Abstract

The Independent Living Courseware is an educational courseware that will help children affected by Down's Syndrome learn basic speech and everyday activities. The courseware contains three modules which are Object Recognition, Procedures and Quiz Module. The first module concentrates on taking the child through recognition of common everyday objects and how their names are pronounced. The second module depicts procedures and ways in which these objects can be used in their daily lives. The final module is a summative quiz which evaluates the child on the concepts they have learnt in both modules 1 and 2. Through continuous usage of this courseware, the child should be able to recognize objects and pronounce their names, know how to perform everyday activities with the objects and learn basic computer skills along the way. The courseware was developed with the implementation of the ADDIE model. The spatial contiguity principle adopted from the Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning has been adopted in the development of the courseware's educational content.
