Module 1 - If you are to develop a program to promote moral values, what program would you do and why?

    To promote morality to humanity, we should first educate the young since younger generations can start being righteous and eventually bring this righteousness until their adult days. So if, I were to develop a program/software to promote morality, the target users of the program would be the youth. Therefore, since younger generations are already aware of computer games whether be it online or offline, I would develop a game which could be played offline. This game would contain teachings on righteousness; basically it would be full of pictures and colors to attract children. Users may be asked about the picture, or they may be asked to differentiate among pictures which are righteous. After answering, there would be explanations and teachings.
