In our first brainstorming we had to think about some students needs that has to be solved in an interactive solution.
We started to think about content world and found out that there are too many under the Education issue.
So.. we tried to focus on 3 main subjects:
* Learning techniques
* Indoor Content
* Utilities to improve the student life
As the brainstorming goes deeper and deeper, each of us start to throw ideas into the air and we actually find that we’ve got to do a huge research in order to know more about students difficulties..
what we are dealing with in o-u-r student life is not enough!
We went home, divided into groups of 2 people and started to explore all the areas that interest us in the ֿֿ’Learning in the 21st Century’ subject.
After a huge and depth research we’ve choose 3 main ideas that we wanted to know more about them. We put a real emphasis on the market competitors…
* Multi-Screen- We found out that there is a problem in nowadays lessons. The fact that today the professors have full control at the presentation, make us think that maybe we need to change this ancient method of indoor learning. students should have the ability to control the lesson too, like an open conversation between the student and their professors. We wanted to give the possibility to function better rate of cooperative and interactive where students can also control what is shown in the class and also incorporate “social learning games” that could trigger the classroom during the lesson. the idea was an app that raise the engagement of the class and the level of attentiveness & participation during the lesson.
* Social Organizer- this idea was born from the need to arrange student’s time better. You all probably know the famous (but acceptable) excuse of “my dog ate my homework”. we want to make sure students wont have to make any excuses anymore.. basically for themselves. students work in a full time job, and try to make all the assignment on time, but then.. they “have” forgot to make one. with the social organizer that reminds you what to do and when you will never forget anything. it also syncs with your class mates’s assignments and make sure you know everything on time and be well prepared. the great benefit is that this organizer is social and not individual.
* Attendance APP- We know that there is a huge problem in some school to enforce this issue. each student was actually skip out of class one time (or many more). we wanted to create an app that help the educational institutions to follow the attendance in their classes. our developers thought that we could built an app which works in a “social-location base” way and can tell if you are present in class based on your class mates exact location. this idea was difficult for us to develop only because of the reason that its not helping in any way the students, but helps the institutions. so we canceled it right away…
Next Sunday we will decide which of the ideas we want to develop this year..In the following weekend were going to work on our first presentation..So we need you “GOOD LUCK” blessing…
W-e are going back to work! Have a great weekend!
C U SOON… 🙂
