EDU-AI

Inspiration

Our inspiration was that children in classrooms all across the country are at different levels of learning than their peers. We wanted to create something that allowed teachers to give their students a fun way to test their skills, while also further developing their knowledge across all subjects.

What it does

After the student selects a subject, they are given three easy questions to test their knowledge. The AI then gives them a new prompt and question for the student to answer. If they get it wrong, the AI will tell them they are wrong and explain why.

How we built it

We used Typescript, React, HTML, and CSS for the backend functionality and frontend of the website. We then imported the OpenAI library and prompted it to give a new exercise to the student while also knowing how to explain to the student how what they did was right or wrong. We were able to give the OpenAI prompts and get the output through python.

Challenges we ran into

We ran into challenges with deploying the website and having some git issues. We ran into problems with the AI because we tried to create our own, and then we tried download llama2, but we ultimately decided OpenAI would give us the best results.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud of working through the challenges and having a functioning website. We are also proud our progress, teamwork, and commitment to our website. Being able to learn new things quickly and implement them correctly is something we are also proud of.

What we learned

We learned new technologies and how to work together to solve problems.

What's next for EDU-AI

Implementing the AI into the website's interface is the next thing that EDU-AI will be tackling. We would love to expand this to more grade levels and more subjects in the future.
