Infinity Ed

Inspiration

The Covid-19 pandemic has shown the world how important virtual learning is. With schools across the nations shut down, students are forced to adapt to this new style of learning. Such a quick turn in lifestyle has left many students unmotivated and unwilling to learn in this new environment. This highlights the issue that students are often taught what to learn, and not how to learn. We would like to give high school students a boost in this journey of online learning by compiling educational resources to help them adapt. These vary from stimulations to videos, to virtual labs, to quizzes, to movies, and even to games! With so many learning resources available online, it is an overwhelming ocean to dive into head-on. By organizing the confusing space of online resources, we hope to inspire more students to become engaged in online learning, and normalize independent learning, even after the pandemic is over.

What it does

Our website offers links on recourses for multiple different topics. By clicking the button next to the website's description, it opens up the resource on a new tab. To find the resource you want, use the navigation bar to go to the main topic you'd like to learn about. Once on that topic's page, click the logo on the left to take you to the site on a new tab. Each resource has a short explanation and a review of the site next to it to help you decide which resource is best for you! Each resource on our site is free to ensure learning is affordable for all. Our reviews take into consideration different types of learners, user-friendliness, and types of activities for each resource.

How we built it

We used repl.it to collaborate. We also used Figma when creating the Wire-frame for the site

It was discouraging to find out that free and updated resources for learning are hard to find. This shows how important Infinity Ed is. We ran into a few obstacles when searching for resources however, this did not deter us. We also had minor issues with the CSS
