What It Does

This program that we built facilitates teaching and learning for both students and teachers. It allows teachers to quickly log on and refresh their students on already taught content rapidly, or to teach something completely new, with everyone at home. Making it to your class at 8 am on a friday can be challenging for some, so with this new computer application a student can join his class virtually, from the comfort of his own room, and still keep all the benefits that a regular class would hold. Beyond all this this program and it's idea open and supports the new age of techology taking over our education.

How We Built It

We started out building a sort of matching program that would link up students to appropriate tutors, but decided to do something slightly less generic. Our train of thought started to drift over to something more time efficient while holding the efficiency. We began to think about doing something along the lines of a group chat with multiple students and one tutor, to save time, but maintain the level of learning and helpfulness. Then, deciding that that was still a bit too off the mark, we moved on to whole classrooms. We started out by designing our ui and images on paper, and progressively transfering it over to java. All the while doing that, we also continued to elaborate on the details.

Challenges We Ran Into

In terms of challenges we ran into, I would have to say that implementing all of it into java would have to be the hardest portion of this. Given all the specific things we did, and the way we did it on paper made it very difficult to transfer over to java. On top of that we continued to add more and more to it, which did nothing but make the job all that more difficult.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

Throughout our journey of creating this project, I can truly say that although we were unable to create an actual working prototype, we were able to articulate our ideas from paper to java, we were able to at least create a ui that resembles it. I am proud of what we were able to create on paper, and even through the lack of content on java, I stay proud of our work.

What I learned

Through our journey with this project, I learned that sometimes a non working prototype can still be enough if you are able to show a amazing blueprint for the rest of it, and that if given not enough time to do something, you can settle with soemthing lesser, but with proof of a working concept.

What's next for Team F

If given time and resources to continue, I'm sure that we would continue and get a working program up and even maybe try to convert it into an app and publish it. But if not, I think that there is a potential chance that we would finish the program and not much else.
