Desktop tutor for lower primary.

Abstract

This report describes the chronological steps involved in the creation of a desktop tutor for lower primary from the idea creation to the implementation and testing. This project originated from an idea I obtained having analysed many children in lower primary forgetting what they were being taught at school during holidays in the teachers’ absence. And also the difficulty and costs involved in keeping lower primary children engaged in the teachers’ absence for example hiring tutors and use of charts that are monotonous and offer little academic content. I then embarked on a number of activities that ranged from problem identification, problem modelling, system analysis, researching, design and development, documentation, and management among many others. To some extent, those steps were achieved through collection of related data inform of electronic articles, electronic and non-electronic books plus papers; this was done while keeping a full citation of their index. Consultations from technical and non-technical people were made; the technical people included the supervisors. Alterations or modification to favour the wellbeing of the project were regular and positive changes were made where necessary and possible. The final stage of this work was the implementation, testing and validation. This project was developed slowly with research from previous documentations various sites for very complex sessions of development.
