The Problem
Problem statement - To enhance user experience for the participating stakeholders (belonging to the education sector primarily) in a Zoom meeting.
[ Based on primary research (questionnaires and interviews), the two common challenges teachers in a Zoom (or any other similar platform) meeting face are:
a. spending significant time and energy on attendance due to reasons like poor connectivity, non-tech users, and of course, the absence of a physical classroom where monitoring is easier,
b. difficulty in authenticating the identity of the attendee.
Zoom (or similar online communication platforms) users have grown in number of late owing to the pandemic, that has paved the way for digitization in almost every arena. The teacher, student and parent community is a significant trigger for the increase in the userbase, and this has made almost mandatory for these platforms to enhance their usability to attract and retain their users belonging to this demography. ]
High-level Approach
