Briefly describe the issues that inspire your project. Also, include who would be the users or audience.

Our project is driven by the desire to enhance the educational experience for students by addressing key challenges and fostering positive outcomes.

Firstly, we recognize the need for greater efficiency in education. As Marshall Goldsmith, a renowed Business Coach says - "What got us here, won't get us there", a piece of advice which is extremely relevant during our current era of explosive growth. Innovation happens at the cross-road between two industries, and our solution proposes such a cross-over between Education - Focusing on Developing the Future Generation of the World, and Cutting-Edge Technology.

Leveraging developments in Generative Artificial Intelligence, we're supplementing our current-era physical resources with tomorrow-land esque augmentations to boost Student Comprehension and Engagement. This provides an equitable platform, wherein all students are empowered by Technology to reach their full potential.

At the same time, we're cautious about over-use of Digital Resources. As was conveyed through the Core Tenets of the 'Teaching Digital Citizens in Today's World: Research and Insights behind the Common Sense K-12 Digital Citizenship Curriculum', a comprehensive 52-Page Academic Paper sharing Research on how Improper Utilization of Digital Resources causes a major adverse affect on a Student, their mental health, and in relation, their academic performance.

Secondly, we acknowledge that Environment is Everything. Our project puts heavy emphasis on the usage of cost-effective novel sensors to gather analytics regarding the environment of each classroom.

Moderately High Carbon Dioxide levels, caused by improper ventilation, reduce Working Intellectual Quotient (IQ) by 25%. Not only this, but Complex Strategic Thinking Ability sees a 50% Decrease.

After Cognita acquired our School, it was great to see new education techniques such as Flip Classrooms being implemented. Effective Student-Led Classroom Interaction requires Strategic Thinking, Growth happens at the edge of our current abilities. It's startling to know Students are biologically unable to perform their best in such situations - Which are exceedingly more common than we believe.

Hence, our Sensors gather information about CO2 Levels, Noise Levels, and other metrics at periodic intervals for further analysis. This information is used to develop a science-backed conducive learning environment for Students. Allowing for Enhanced Learning Outcomes.

Lastly, we recognize the importance of Insightful Data Analysis, as this powers effective decision-making. Alongside this, we provide a solution which empowers Educators with the ability to identify Key Areas of Focus, Address Learning Gaps and Optimize Teaching Strategies. As well as Students, giving them the ability to gain an overview of each class's discussion. This is especially useful when a Student is unable to attend the class due to Illness, Travel, or other reasons. It also allows a Parent to stay in the loop on what's being discussed at School, facilitated through Weekly Transaction Reports.

We utilize self-developed Natural Language Processing Techniques to extract insights from Classroom Activities and Discussion, and utilize this data to generate comprehensive but succinct 6-Point summaries for each class.

The primary users and audience for our project are students, who will benefit from personalized and engaging learning experiences, and educators who will gain valuable insights to enhance their teaching practices. By placing students at the center of our solutions, we aim to create a transformative educational experience that allows Students to leverage novel technologies to perform their best, at their happiest.
