Extreme programming practices were used in the design and development process of the interactive multimedia content. Questionnaires were used to collect data from pupils in order to evaluate effectiveness of the content in a pre-test and post-test design. Furthermore, focus group discussions were used to collect opinions from teachers and traffic police officers on the pedagogical effectiveness of the content. From the findings the content seemed to enhance road safety education whereby there was an increase of percentage of pupils who got the correct questions in the post-test such that (75% of pupils from Osterbay, 90% of pupils from Saku and 79.2% of pupils from Mlimani) in Pedestrian crossing rules, (70% of pupils from Osterbay, 65% of pupils from Saku and 82.%% of pupils from Mlimani) in Road traffic signs rules and (91.7% of pupils from Osterbay, 84.2% of pupils from Saku and 85% of pupils from Mlimani) in acceptable and proper behaviours on the road | en_US |
