We have about 30% of the Georgia resident with no internet connection they can use. Thus, for students who want to learn more and compete with the outside world, there is a lack of means to get those resources. For instance, imagine a community where kids want to learn HTML and Python, but they don't have an internet connection. Our project is about building an app to help such kids by servicing their requests for tutorials on HTML/python with no internet availability. This app is present on phones of various members in the community and each request is shared with the members in a peer to peer manner (without internet connection). Anytime a member moves into Internet connectivity (e.g. public WiFi) these requests are download, and similarly propagated back to the requester in a peer-to-peer fashion. Hence, we are bypassing the Internet connectivity requirement by harnessing user mobility and direct connectivity options present in modern cell phones.
