Elevator Pitch
In 3-4 sentences, provide a short description of the project.
<aside> ⚡ Pandemic learning and increased tech usage have negatively affected education and attention span, especially in the youth. Our website, Class.io, promotes student engagement in remote and in-person settings, specifically elementary students, by designing a user-friendly interface to incentivize students to stay focused in class through a points-rewards system. Class.io serves as a simple classroom software that is easy to navigate for younger audiences, parents, and teachers, alike.

<aside> 💡 Background Research There has been a decrease in motivation and effective learning with in students since the surge of Covid-19. Elementary students face many challenges during remote/hybrid learning due to technological barriers, social isolation and limited collaboration. This decrease has affected elementary students especially since grade school is the one of the most pivotal years of building a strong educational foundation and stage of social, cognitive and emotional development. **
What it does… Implements interactive learning through the use of fun educational games/quizzes and rewards system that encourages independent learning. How we built it…
We first brainstorm products we can piggyback off. Initially we wanted to make a zoom extension that includes a half screen for students to do work in so they don’t get distracted opening a different tab. Then we researched to find our problem statement and we wanted to promote independent learning, equity and help support for students who doesn’t have 24/7 parental guide. Then we started wireframing to the prototype.
*Challenges we ran into… Considering the collaboration aspect of online learning for our website due to time constraints. Accomplishments that we're proud of… Creating a simple and resourceful website that includes a guidance page, an incentive system, and interactive online programs. What we learned… ***That some students are not in equitable environments that eliminates distractions during distant learning—distance learning can still remain extremely difficult for many students, due to lack of resources (technology, wifi, electricity, etc.) What's next?
Implement AI to teach students while they’re doing their quizzes, conduct user testing whether the engagement increased through our product, and include breakouts rooms to increase engagement among the classroom.
