Description
Welcome to the overview of my final year project, if you would like further information about this project feel free to send me a message.
The aim of this project was to see if brain training games can improve the cognitive processes of someone with visual or phonological Dyslexia.
I created the frontend of the website using Bootstrap allowing me to utilise the grid system and components to create a simple layout which was consistent across all pages.
The games were developed using HTML, CSS and JavaScript the number (flashing numbers) and corsi games (flashing blocks) require you to remember the sequence which increases by one each time you are correct. The spelling games will hide letters and use speech synthesis to help spell the letter. All games are timed until the finish and Ajax is used to post scores and time spent on the game to the server.
The backend uses PHP and MySQL to store scores from each user into the database. The user will be able to see a visual representation of their training history which uses Google charts to monitor time and score.
The admin also has control of user accounts, and able to see the average of all user those with Dyslexia and without using Google Charts.
Future improvements
- Make UI responsive so that it can be used on mobile devices.
- Remove alerts from the game and add to UI of the game.
- Improve on the user interface to make it visually appealing.
