Meeting PhD students regarding design of app and accessibility features

In our ongoing journey to craft an inclusive and revolutionary Math assessment app, our team recently had a game-changing meeting with 2 PhD students - Zahra and Hannah - who specialize in neurological development in children. This collaborative session focused on enhancing accessibility features to ensure our app caters to diverse learning needs. The discussion kicked off with a deep dive into font styles and background colors – seemingly trivial, but crucial elements that can significantly impact user experience, especially for those with visual impairments or reading difficulties. The students provided valuable insights, suggesting combinations that proved optimal for readability and comprehension. One standout suggestion was the integration of an option to both read and listen to instructions. Recognizing the diversity in learning preferences, we aim to create an app that accommodates auditory learners, fostering an inclusive learning environment. The concept of an Accessibility Mo

Meeting the Teaching Assistants

In a productive meeting with our Teaching Assistant, we gained invaluable feedback to refine our app further. Here's an overview of the key points and our action plan: - Navigation Bar : Implementing a navigation bar in the app for better user experience and ease of access. - Database Setup : We'll use Azure and Python for database creation, ensuring robust data management and scalability. - Requirements List/Table : A detailed list/table of requirements will be compiled, focusing on essential features and functionalities. - Function Requirements : We'll avoid overly specific function requirements like screen size to maintain flexibility. - Priority List : Creating a priority list will help streamline our development process, focusing on critical features first. - Navigation Setup Drawing : A detailed drawing akin to a flow diagram, but more focused on navigation, will be developed for clearer visualization of the user journey. - Research Chapter : We plan to conduct a comp
