Refugees are regularly not included in terms of continuity of education options during the COVID-19 pandemic. Innovative responses are needed to reduce the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects on education with a specific focus on refugees.
In this difficult context, distance learning is becoming more and more relevant. But conduct it and measure its impact finds also more obstacles that in traditional classes. War Child wanted to develop, test and pilot a new tool for measuring learning outcomes of distance learning interventions in a supervised environment.
As a result we developed for the organization two linked web-apps. One, to allow children to complete assessments in a gamified environment. The other, a platform for supervisors to manage children and visualize the outcomes of the assessments.
The challenge
- Reach children in regions with bad internet connections
- Create an app easily understandable for children at a young age
- Easily extend the apps with more assessments
What we did
- Angular Service Worker to provide a broad offline availability
- Usage of visuals, audios and in-app tutorials
- Creating generic objects to add more and custom assessments
Working with Relief Applications is both pleasant and efficient as they listen to our feedback and take it into account, we thus experience true and smooth collaboration. In addition, they are aware of the specific constraints of the NGO world so they constantly keep it in mind when designing a new tool
