Abstract

storytelling by a child, as an educational activity, influences significantly the child's linguistic ability, thought process, imagination, and creativity. There presently exist many software-based storytelling applications. However, most are deemed not suitable to Chinese children due to various cultural and language barriers. In this paper, combining the characteristics of Chinese children and using the multimodal interaction pattern based on speech and pen-gesture, we present a 3D storytelling system for children. The usability of two versions of the storytelling system is evaluated. Evaluation results suggest version 2 of the system to be of higher usability, as are comments on revising the software.
