Problem
Lab sessions and practical exams are stressful for students. Textbooks only explain theory and steps, not the actual execution. Many juniors rely on rushed explanations from seniors right before exams. Online resources like YouTube are too generic and often don’t match the university syllabus. As a result, students face anxiety, confusion, and lack confidence during labs and vivas.
Gaps in Current Solutions
Textbooks are too theoretical and provide no step-by-step practical guidance. Peer help is often unreliable since seniors are busy, and explanations are last-minute. Online videos are generic and not tailored to the syllabus or specific university experiments. Faculty cannot provide one-on-one guidance to every student due to time constraints. These gaps create a clear need for structured, accessible, and syllabus-aligned lab guidance.
My Solution
Lab & Practical Demo Hub – a student-powered video platform where seniors upload short, high-quality tutorials of experiments, coding exercises, and viva questions. Juniors subscribe to access content directly aligned with their syllabus. Engagement features include:
Gamified Learning: Badges, points, and progress tracking for juniors.
Tutor Leaderboard: Ratings, points, and recognition for seniors.
Peer Challenges: Upload tricky questions or experiments and get video responses.
Future AR/VR support: Step-by-step interactive lab overlays.
This benefits juniors by boosting confidence, seniors by giving recognition and earning opportunities, and faculty by saving time.
Technical Details
The platform is a web and mobile app with video hosting, quizzes, and reward systems. Content can be efficiently searched using hashing and sorting by experiment, topic, or difficulty level. Secure login and digital wallets handle subscriptions and rewards. Gamification features include points, badges, leaderboards, and progress dashboards. Future expansions may include AR/VR overlays for interactive labs and analytics to track engagement and popular content.
Personal Connection
I’ve personally witnessed the anxiety and stress students face before lab exams when they don’t fully understand practical steps. This inspired me to create a platform that transforms confusion into confidence, while rewarding seniors for sharing their knowledge. It addresses both the learning gap for juniors and provides an opportunity for seniors to contribute meaningfully.
