Project Proposal

Working title: Fun2Learn

What is the intended idea / concept behind the proposed project?

To assist young children who are still in school who struggle with school due to the language barrier and any learning difficulites. It will break down the language barriers in school so they are able to learn the lesson plan in more depth  by using different teaching techniques and the option to convert the lesson plan to their chosen dialect which will be tailored to their specific needs.

Justify the idea / concept in terms of the needs for its existence (if purely for entertainment, state this and how the output will be innovative/original and creative):

This concept will hopefully allow these individual’s who face learning difficulties the ability to learn at their required speed. It will also give them the independence and the ability to learn outside the classroom, which will hopefully show an postive increase in their grades. Family member can also benefit by knowing that their child has extra curriculum support they ultimately need as the teacher may be not able to give them the support they need in class. The app will also have a monitoring page so they can see their child/s progress. This concept will act as a bridge between the language barriers and eduction. This App is not limited to just student who do not speak English, it can also hep students with learning difficulties.

The App should greatly impact the student academic progression as it will give the the extra tome and resources to help learn in different ways that is tailored to their needs.

This concept can be used on smartphones (Apps) and computers (website). This means it has more than one way to access the publication.

Describe the intended audience:

The intended audience will be children with learning difficulties and children with a language barrier which restricts them from learning.

How will this project extend your or your team’s creative and technical skills?

In order for this project to manifest i will need to conduct extensive research on my chosen targeted audience, outlining what their needs to ultimately help me to produce an app tailored to their needs. To make the App i will be using Adobe XD to create the App interface. As i am not familliar with this software, which mean i need to ensure i leave enough time to watch youtube tutorials on how to create interfaces. This will really test my technical skills

Outline how the practical work will be carried out by you / the team (division of labour) and the time-scales involved for each task:

Upon completing my initial research i will move onto to  sketching and brainstorming design  ideas for the application. The App must be easy to understand and navigate for the intended audience. I also want to use bright colours to make the app more fun and ending. These initial ideas may have change in the development phases as i will be getting feedback from potential users.

After the initial interface design is complete, I will begin to start on the animation element of the app.  Using  the Adobe software  “After Effects,  Photoshop and Illustrator” I aim to make an advert to promoate the proposed product.
