Hi,
I'm currently taking A Level Computing, and am at the stage where I'm thinking about coding for my project. As I want to be a teacher, my project idea was to make games that will allow for young children to practise phonics. An issue with this is that the best way for me to test their knowledge of phonics would be getting them to read words out, and then python would compare them to the pronunciation of the word.
What I need to know is: will this be too hard? Are there modules that will allow me to compare sounds together - for example, if I had a database of the correct pronunciations and compare it to what the child said? If not, does anyone have any other suggestions on how I may be able to do this?
Thanks.
