Challenge
Title
Abstract
Not flexible. Uncreative. Restrictive. These are all words which education specialists use today to describe the formal educational system. For the internet, many people would argue that despite it being a useful communication tool, most of it is also meaningless, full of irrelevant pieces of information. Based on these observations, we will venture on a quest to create an innovative online platform called edutain-me which selects and links users to relevant, fun and educational content for students and life-long learners. The high quality of the user - tailored recommendations (on the basis of academic data, personal information and preferences) is given by the reviews of the educators and teachers. Imagine an opportunity to learn what you need, when you need and want it, through videos, comic strips, games, interactive textbooks, online tutorials, games and quizzes by only requiring an internet connection and access to a device which can use it. In a primordial market with approximately 75 million potential users, finding the right partners in charities, the online media, authorities and having a great communication strategy are crucial aspects. By carefully analysing the market and assessing the risks which could occur, as well as developing a sustainable financing structure, we aim to make edutain-me an important educational tool, complementary to the formal educational system. In this continuously changing industry, we strongly believe we can design the product to generate a sustainable change in the future of fun in learning by 2030.

Interesting.
So, would it work as an educational aid or do you propose this to be the future of the educational system as a whole?

Every idea in this competition is meant for a noble cause..
And everyone is running blindly to get more accolades for their own idea.. We all are trying to gather and convince friends to vote for us..
But as a part of this competition, we ourselves should motivate eachother.. for a while we should keep the competition aside.. and we should look into all our felllow competitor's ideas.. and should encourage the idea they came up with for the noble cause..
Lets keep aside the competitive feelings aside.. and lets vote for all the ideas we consider worthy in our perspective...
lets encourage each other ideas.. I will vote for you as i liked your idea.. and for all other ideas as well which i liked..
