  Character Sheet

Inspiration

We wanted to build an application that gamified the learning experience for younger children that is centered around a fantasy MMO. It also gives an incentive to the children so that they want to keep learning!

What it does

It allows students and parents to create an account in which the student can take a learning course and the parents can control the access that their kids have. The students embark on a learning journey where they can choose their character and level up their skills in certain categories. The parents can control the incentive that they decide and how many modules they need to gain that incentive.

How we built it

We built this using the MERN tech stack! (MongoDB, Express, ReactJS, Node.js)

Challenges we ran into

Some challenges we ran into were how we were to design our database, how to integrate MongoDB with Express, how to design an interactive UI, and how to parse through the data in React.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We were able to successfully grab data from the database, learn how to make new elements with different React elements, and overall improve our skills.

What we learned

How much impact a database's design can have on your handling and how to render different animations and objects into React

What's next for Scholar's Path

Adding more questions to the base web application, automating that process, and possibly adding more incentives the parents can choose from!
