An AI Powered Digital Playground Where Education Meets Imagination
The CodeSprout is a solution that uses AI to transform children's learning experience into a more gamified and exciting one. It stands as a beacon of hope, showcasing how AI can be harnessed to address the complex relationship between children and technology in today's digital age.
- Conventional Learning: Problem Solving using Blocks
- Creative Learning: Learning with interactive projects
- Interactive: Solving problems with visualization and help from AI
- Scalable Structure: Microservice in Java
- Block-Based Projects: Children engage in creative learning through fun, block-based projects.
- Block-Based Problem Solving: Gamified learning experience with block-based problem-solving challenges.
- Gamified Learning Experience: The platform provides a gamified interface where children can interact with educational content in a fun and engaging way.
- Statistics and Accomplishments: Children's progress and accomplishments are displayed in a gamified manner, offering rewards and milestones to keep them motivated.
- AI-Based Recommendation: Personalized recommendations for learning activities powered by AI.
- Connected with Parents: Seamless connection with parents to keep them updated on their child's learning journey.
- Parents Monitoring Progress: Parents can monitor their child’s progress and receive a comprehensive PDF report.
- Automated Project Creation: Automatically generates new and exciting projects tailored to the child's progress and learning curve.
This microservice-based project comprises seven core services: UserService, ParentService, ChatbotService, CodingAssistantService, RecommendationService, ParentService, and ProblemService. Each service is hosted on separate servers to ensure scalability and optimal performance. Additionally, two essential modules, the Gateway and Discovery Server, are employed for inter-service communication and load balancing.
- UserService: Manages user authentication, profile management, and user-related data storage.
- ParentService: Enables parental control, progress tracking, and generates progress reports in PDF format.
- ChatbotService: Handles the chatbot functionality, providing AI-based interactions and suggestions.
- CodingAssistantService: Assists children in their coding activities, offering real-time feedback and help.
- RecommendationService: Generates AI-based learning recommendations based on user interaction and progress.
- ProblemService: Manages problem-solving tasks, tracks user progress, and gamifies problem challenges.
- Gateway and Discovery Server: The Gateway handles routing and traffic control between services, while the Discovery Server manages service registration and load balancing across microservices.
