A Web App for Remote Learning" (Individual Project - Student Defined) Faculty Advisor: Dr. Afra Mashhadi |

Abstract The main goal of my capstone project was to develop
a web-application that assists students in tracking and scheduling their
learning time. This project was inspired by the current global pandemic,
which has caused many students to restructure how to they are learning. With
the transition to remote learning, students are encountering more
asynchronous work, less collaborative work, and a variety of new learning
difficulties. This project aims to help assist students in transitioning to
remote learning by providing a tool to help them structure and keep track of
their learning. This project was developed with React, JavaScript,
HTML, and CSS for the front end, and Google Firebase for authentication,
hosting, and database in the back end. Development was completed using agile
techniques to implement new features. User feedback was collected, and
suggested changes and improvements were implemented in the project. The result of the project is a fully functioning
web-application that allows users to create custom subjects and schedule
events based on their subjects. The user can also set custom goals for how
long they want to spend on each subject and view the progress of the goals.
Finally, the user can view statistics on their learning including their total
amount of time spent on each subject and weekly summaries
for each week they have scheduled an event. This web-application is also
fully accessible on desktop and mobile devices. |
