| − | AEIOU is an activity for introducing the Spanish vowels. It displays letters and images and associated sound files, such as 'A as in ave'. There are four modes:

| − | == Learning with AEIOU ==
| |
| − | While far from contructionist, this activity does provide a mechanism for learning the alphabet.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Modifying AEIOU ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | As of Version 1, only a Spanish version is included. In order to add other languages, we need:
| |
| − | * audio recordings of the letter names
| |
| − | * audio recordings of the picture names
| |
| − | * perhaps additional pictures, in order ensure there is a picture for each letter of the alphabet
| |
| − | | |
| − | There is a language-specific database file maintained in ./lessons/??/alphabet.csv where ?? is the 2-digit language code. The format of the CSV file is:
| |
| − | | |
| − | {| border=1 cellpadding=3 style="border: 1px solid white; border-collapse: collapse; background: #e3e4e5;"
| |
| − | |-style="background:#787878; color: white;"
| |
| − | ! letter !! word !! color (#RRGGBB)!! image file !! sound file (image) !! sound file (letter)
| |
| − | |-
| |
| − | |R || (r)atón || #F08020 || raton.png || raton.ogg || r.ogg
| |
| − | |}

| − | == Extending AEIOU ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | It would, of course, be fun to let the learner add their own pictures and sound recordings.
