Abstract:
This research mainly focused on finding the ways to adopt visual learning among Autodidacts to assess learning progress, predict performance, use memory techniques and track potential issues. In order to promote self-motivated and self-taught students in the future, this APP, 'Dopa' (derived from the hormone ‘Dopamine’, which is responsible for the reward-learning) introduces/reminds the user to utilize and ingrain visualized learning as their second nature. Method of Loci (also known as Roman Room | Mind Palace | The Journey Method) is the widely used methodology for visual based learning. While there exists similar software, 'Dopa' specifically targets the Sri Lankan users as the pedagogy and other education mechanisms are considerably different in our settings. The ultimate vision is to produce as many autodidacts as possible. Thus 'Dopa' deals with a special case, where the teachers are being the students, the autodidacts.
