An Augmented Reality Vowel Trainer for Learning English Pronunciation for Primary School Students

Mastering the English language at an early stage of education with proper pronunciation is the key to effective communication. In the English language, vowels play a key role as they can be found in every syllable of every word in the English vocabulary. A vowel is a sound that forms a syllable when paired with a consonant. Understanding the vowel sounds is highly linked with reading skills. Within this project, ARETE has researched, developed, and experimented with the vowel trainer, which is an augmentation for Mirage-XR, to allow a user to be assessed on the pronunciation of selected 3D learning objects and provided with meaningful feedback. Assessed the pronunciation of selected 3D learning objects and provided meaningful feedback.
