PROJECT SUMMARY

The problem we identified is that carrying too many materials or heavy backpacks causes back, shoulder, neck pain, and poor posture. To avoid these issues, we created a virtual notebook, the application is called CDS WEB. You have an account with all your subjects, and every time you click on a subject, a new sheet is added. This means instead of carrying 11 notebooks and a pencil case, you only need to bring a device like a computer or tablet. We believe this will have a positive impact on high school students and teachers.

WHY?

We undertook this project because we want young people to no longer have to bring so many notebooks to school, or at least 10 notebooks every day to their institution. Instead, they only need to bring a computer or tablet, making everything much easier.

HOW?

We started by brainstorming ideas and solutions on the Miro web platform. Then, we designed the screens in Miro before moving to Figma to enhance our prototype.

WHAT?

We discovered that many high school students would like to have such an application because it would also help them with their homework. They wouldn't need to take photos of their notebooks to upload for assignments, as our app includes a digital notebook for each subject. Additionally, it would improve the physical health of students.

SO WHAT?

It was important because we were able to create a prototype of our idea, and it makes us feel capable of creating things.

WHAT'S NEXT?

We want to continue improving the prototype and eventually create an application.

JUDGES FEEDBACK

Good job putting together the first pieces of this project. It seems like you have a clear idea on how to help students who usually carry heavy books and notebooks. It will have the students approval for sure and once you finish prototyping you can run some insightful tests among them. I understand it is still under development so I will be good to try to get feedback from different teachers from all subjects so you can have a clear panorama of what is needed in each case. Well done and keep up the good work! Hope to see the development of this project soon!!!
