While working as an information technology teacher, I developed a web application using Angular and Firebase to increase student participation in class, ensure fair evaluations at the end of the year, share lecture notes, and make announcements. The application also included features such as managing grades, assignments, and announcements.
The most notable feature of the application was its point system, where students earned points for attending class on time, participating, and displaying exemplary behavior. I avoided emphasizing individual competition by enabling the entire class to earn points together.
To prevent the system from turning into a competition, I reset the points after each raffle, encouraging students to focus on earning more rewards rather than competing against one another.
By involving students in the development and use of the application, I helped them visualize software concepts and served as a role model for aspiring developers.
