چکیده

The matter of a one-size-fits-all approach towards the development of culturally-relevant educational software is debated with one side arguing for internationalization and the other side arguing for localization. This paper takes a pragmatic look at the issues involved in localization and aims to shed light on the strengths and limitations of undertaking culture as a design feature. With an emphasis on the application layer, the paper investigates the requirements and steps that need to be taken when using cultural contexts in educational software. It describes the design of a localized intelligent tutoring system developed for the context of Trinidad and Tobago and discusses how the prototype was evaluated in two separate stu opinions, attitudes, and preferences for localization.
