Business Overview – SchoolUp
Our client Alvin Kamoga wanted to develop and educational application that helps teachers to conduct and asses examination online
The main objective in developing SchoolUp was to provide visible graphical view to the outcomes and list all analysis with necessary comments
SchoolUp connects parents and teachers to collaborate the performance of the student and share feedback between each other to engage students with enhanced learning experience
The Challenge
Develop SchoolUp with the ability to accommodate n number of teachers and parents, school and colleges along with respective administrators. This requires a large database
Make it more interactive; provide push/pull notifications to keep teachers and parents informed of students activity; and, ensure computability of all smart devices and operating platforms
One of the major challenges was making sure that all data, content and features were manageable and controllable by all involved personnel without compromising comfortability and application performance
Our Approach
Once our client connected with us, we discovered multiple possibilities to align resources and assign educational tasks to students to create a comprehensive learning platform.
We created features that allow teachers to teach students through video tutorials, worksheets, e-books, etc. We also develop features such as video conferences, voice calling, feedback sections to allow parents to get in touch with their children’s teachers.
