Online Education Environment Promoting Social and Emotional Well-being
The edtech platform should offer an effective learning path for participants while supporting individual well-being, encouraging a sense of purpose and flow-seeking behavior, and reducing the physical and mental health risks associated with 24-hour online presence as well as the stress caused by platforms (constant presence, notifications, FOMO, etc.). The platform should protect users' personal data and privacy by using the least amount of sensitive data possible. The educational platform could be an LMS, exam interface, self-learning course interface, gamification platform, game, etc.
The onsite address for this blended hackathon is: Falk1 Rendezvényközpont (1055 Budapest, Falk Miksa utca 1.)
