Artificial Intelligence based learning Platform that can help students to learn without the need for constant internet connection

Among the whole population in the world, a very few people have access to quality materials available across the internet. For this reason, exploring beyond the limits is beyond "their" physical limits. Let me tell you my story, I am a self taught programmer, who didn't have access to the internet connection, till May 2017. I am lucky enough to have a internet cafe which provided me access to extremely helpful materials over the internet. But the beauty of education lies in it's ability to produce correct solution in thousands of different ways. But figuring out which solution is legit and which is not, requires a subject matter expert who can help out with this problem.

I got so much interested to solve this problem, I built my first website "6.042 Rules!" to help students get access to guided education of MIT's 6.042 Class. It was short lived, but it taught me the importance of such online classes.

In the last few years, AI have progressed in leaps and bounds, they can now do stuffs which are hard even for us as humans to do. So we are proposing an AI based education platform which have the capability to run complex evaluation of human written information and check for the errors.

If we can deploy this education solution, what we can get is an extremely powerful education platform which can help students out with difficult topics and can provide students textboxes to write down their answers. No more checkboxes! This can help students explore their creative side on complex materials, instead of limiting them to ticking checkboxes, and that too without internet! Sounds promising right???

AI has been around for quite some time. And in the last few years, they have progressed in leaps and bounds. The solution is to be formed using advanced-AI techniques. The AI model will be trained and run on the server foming the back-end of the intelligent tutoring service. This can then be packaged along with the trained AI model, so that students who don't have constant access to internet. This can then be run on the client's end, without the need of any internet, helping the students to work on even those descriptive solutions, without any hurdles.

We are using Cutting Edge AI techniques for Natural Language Processing and Understanding for this purpose. And the whole thing is modeled in the form of WebApp.

In the next 12 months, we are trying to implement this solution idea and make it available as soon as possible. We are currently in the ideation phase and we have started coding the Artificial Intelligence segment of the solution.

When we successfully launch this solution, I am pretty sure it will help a lot of
"Adrish" out there to reach towards their goal irrespective of their social or economic status. I am pretty sure, this can help more students get an opportunity to explore more of their passion and choose a carrier based on their love for it not depending on social/financial ranking of the subject.

The Solution which we are planning can be accessed on the web, or can be downloaded once for the entire period of the course. So, if a student can download the product once, they can have access to the exact same facilities (excluding the online community support) they could have while on the web. And we want to deploy this solution for absolute free of cost.

I  was one of the founders of the 6.042 Rules website, free tutoring service for 6.042. That brought us in contact with many amazing people around the globe. Apart from that, I and another member of the group were the finalists of ACM Kolkata Chapter B.Tech Awards, 2018. That has introduced us to some extremely helpful and amazing people from the academia and Industry. 3 of are are members of College ECell and 4th, is a contact who stood second in ACM. So, We along with our contacts, have the capability to attract resources and make a noticeable impact.

We are applying to solve to get all kind of necessary help to bring this solution to market as soon as possible. Solve can help us introduce to more contacts, help us in building a successful Business Plan, Mentor us through the technological problems we face, and help us get a grant funding for the project. For example, Training a Deep Learning model needs a highly powerful computer to work on, which we don't have currently at our disposal. So we are looking for some help from Solve to approach this technical issue.

We are facing Financial and Technological limitations for this project. Deploying this solution needs a better business plan, better hardware, and mentors who can guide us through the various problems we face building this solution. Apart from the Hardware issue mentioned above, We need a business expert to help us plot out a proper BPlan to maintain the non-profit nature of the Product, and paying off the bills in time.
