ADDIE Methodology together with Macromedia Flash 8 and Adobe Photoshop has been employed in the development of the courseware. The theories that have been applied in the development include; Design Theory, Behaviorism, Constructivism, Cognitive and Van Hiele Thinking Model. The Instructional Design Model and the courseware prototype, `Li2D´ are presented as the result in this study.
