The Development of a Prototype IOS Application to Improve Literacy Levels

Abstract

Abstract This project was inspired by the discovery that a young family member had been diagnosed with dyslexia. This information resulted in a desire to create an application to assist this particular relative with their literacy problems. A prototype was designed and developed that would specifically appeal to all young children with literacy issues. The prototype was then tested and a further investigation was carried out using appropriate research methods to investigate whether there was a market for the application. This research revealed that there is indeed a market and further investigations have highlighted that the product can be improved and developed further.
