# EduTech-Africa A2SV Internal Hackathon Checkpoint 1 Project Title: EduTech Africa Team Name: algorithm-avengers Team Captain Name: Henok Mekuanint Team Members: Biruk Kassaw Abera Henok Mekuanint Asfaw Joshua Tesfaye Alemu Temesgen Zewude Denabo Problem Statement: African students often struggle to gain a practical understanding of mathematics and physics concepts in the context of engineering applications, hindering their ability to be successful in their academic pursuits. Current educational resources do not adequately address this need, leaving many students feeling ill-prepared and discouraged. Additionally, the lack of group projects and opportunities for collaborative work hinders their ability to develop communication and teamwork skills, which are crucial for success in the engineering field. Solution Idea: To address the challenge of fostering effective collaboration among university students in Africa, we propose the development of a web application that provides a platform for students to view and apply to different engineering projects. The website will feature a range of collaborative tools, including project-sharing features, forums, and messaging capabilities to enable students to engage with one another, encourage each other and share their progress. The app will be designed to be accessible to students across the African continent, with features that support multiple learning styles, and will be specifically tailored to university-level engineering education. By creating a collaborative environment that supports and encourages student participation, the web application will help to build a strong community of future African engineers who are able to work effectively in teams, innovate and solve complex problems together. Project Scope: The proposed web application aims to foster effective collaboration among university students in Africa by providing a platform for students to view and apply to different engineering projects. The app will …
