What to Build

This year, the theme is Edutech! Edutech refers to products that utilises technology such as software to innovate the learning experience for students in different forms of education, ultimately to advance the educational outcomes for students. Your goal in this hackathon is to outline a problem within the educational sphere and develop an innovative product that addresses this.

What to Submit

All teams MUST submit two things:

  • Your project repository (e.g., Github repo link)
    • In addition, you could also link your deployed code for us (and other teams) to explore!
  • A 2-5 minute video pitching your solution
    • Your video should demonstrate your prototype and pitch to us why your solution is worthy of being the best!
