Letterland : Web-Based Alphabet Learning System

In many households across Northern Nigeria, parents rely on traditional methods such as verbal instruction, religious texts, communications in the society and some educational materials like paper and pen to teach their children Hausa and Arabic but, a significant challenge arises from the limited time parents have to engage in teaching their children, further hindering the learning process. Therefore, The project's aim is to develop an interactive language learning system that helps children learn the basic alphabets of Hausa and Arabic in a fun and engaging way. The development process for LetterLand follows these methods; Chapter One introduces the background and objectives, emphasizing the importance of early language education in Hausa and Arabic for children within the community. Chapter Two reviews existing literature on language and numeric learning systems for children, focusing on interactive and gamified approaches, as well as the limitations of traditional teaching methods.Chapter Three details the system design using the Incremental Model of SDLC, outlining the project workflow, requirements elicitation through questionnaires and observations, and the proposed architecture, including design and class diagram for the system. Chapter Four describes the implementation and testing phases, utilizing tools like Figma for UI design, Visual Studio Code as code editor and MySQL for backend service.Chapter Five provides the project summary, conclusions, and recommendations for future enhancements, such as incorporating filter features and adding background audio. The project successfully delivers an interactive and child-friendly learning system that facilitates the learning of Arabic and Hausa alphabets. It offers features like object-letter matching, and quizzes to engage young learners and address gaps in traditional teaching methods.
