CAMTS: Computer Aided Multidialectal Teaching System (original) (raw)

2016

Abstract

This research aimed at the development of computer aided multidialectal teaching system (CAMTS) that can be adopted and used as teaching tool in schools. We focused on simple arithmetic for nursery school pupils as our test case. The age group considered is 3 years to 5 years old. Our objective is the provision of a software tool that enables nursery school pupils learn and interact using three dialects from three Nigerian tribes (i.e. Igbo, Hausa, Yoruba) and one dialect in Togolese tribe (i.e. Ewe). The multidialectal component of the system gives room for easy teaching by the teachers and easy learning by the pupils in their native dialects. Moreover, both teachers and pupils have opportunity to learn another dialect aside their own dialects. CAMTS is flexible and can be scaled up to accommodate other dialects such that it can be adapted to other environments aside
