GCompris: Multiple Datasets

Project Overview

GCompris offers many activities related to reading, maths, science and since it is free software, everyone can adapt it to one’s own needs, improve it and, most importantly, share it with children everywhere around the world. Currently, most of the activities had generalized datasets so for some of the age groups like 3-5 yrs the activity were quite difficult to play, while for older age groups the activity were easy.

For this, we have the concept of multiple datasets. Multiple datasets helps making the activity adaptive for children of all age groups. Multiple datasets mean having different datasets file for each age group.

My project goals include adding of multiple datasets to several memory activities, mirror the given images, and guess count activity.

Milestones Achieved

Adding multiple datasets to Enumeration Memory Game Activity

In this activity, the child needs to turn the cards to count the number of elements of an image and match with the corresponding number cards. I started my work of implementing multiple datasets to memory activities with this activity. To do this I needed to change the logic of the code to support both the default datasets and the multiple datasets. There are a total of 20 sub-activity of memory activities. I will be adding multiple datasets to the following memory activities:

1. Enumeration memory game
2. Addition memory game
3. Subtraction memory game
4. Multiplication memory game
5. Division memory game
6. Addition and subtraction memory game
7. Multiplication and division memory game
8. All operations memory game
9. Addition memory game against Tux
10. Subtraction memory game against Tux
11. Multiplication memory game against Tux
12. Division memory game against Tux
13. Addition and subtraction memory game against Tux
14. Multiplication and division memory game against Tux
15. All operations memory game against Tux

This activity is one of the sub-activity of memory activities. The datasets for this activity are defined on the basis of increasing number of images for each difficulty levels.

Adding multiple datasets to Addition Memory Game Activity

In this activity, the child needs to turn the cards to match an addition and its result, until all the cards are gone. The goal of this activity is to practice addition. This activity has two modes as a second mode “with Tux”. I have implemented multiple datasets to both modes of this activity.

Adding multiple datasets to Subtraction Memory Game Activity

In this activity, the child needs to turn the cards to match a subtraction and its result, until all the cards are gone. The goal of this activity is to practice subtraction. This activity has two mode as a second mode “with Tux”. I have implemented multiple datasets to both modes of this activity.

Adding multiple datasets to Multiplication Memory Game Activity

In this activity, the child needs to turn the cards to match a multiplication and its result, until all the cards are gone. The goal of this activity is to practice multiplication. This activity has two mode as a second mode “with Tux” so I have implemented multiple datasets for this too.
