Cognitive Trapeze — AI-Generated Comic: Tendani Ito (The Golden Canary) for Guided Reading in ZEP

This dataset contains an AI-generated educational comic (9 panels) and its accompanying digital lesson plan, designed for guided reading in Cameroonian Priority Education Zones (ZEP). The comic illustrates the African folk tale "Tendani Ito — Le Canari d'Or", aligned with the official 6th-grade French curriculum. Developed within the MSCA Cognitive Trapeze project, it addresses the challenge of teaching reading comprehension in overcrowded classrooms (60+ learners) without individual textbooks. The resource operationalizes the concept of "embodied knowledge" from the Cognitive Trapeze Model. Ethical note: This comic was generated using AI based on literary text. No real children's images or voices are included. Field testing was conducted under MINESEC authorization (Ref. N° 658/2026/AR/H/DRES) with full parental consent.
