The Story behind Mind Expanders
The Story behind Mind Expanders
Inspiration: As a computer science major, I experienced firsthand the challenge of accessing study materials without specific textbooks. Observing students' struggles with sharing data via hard disks and USBs, I envisioned a solution utilizing cloud storage for seamless resource sharing. This vision sparked the inception of MIND EXPANDERS.
What We Do: MIND EXPANDERS revolutionizes study material accessibility by hosting resources on a user-friendly platform supported by a helpful AI chatbot. We provide organized access to lectures, slides, projects, and more, fostering a collaborative learning environment for students.
How We Built It: Initially, we organized study materials on Google Drive but encountered usability issues and storage limitations. To address this, we designed and developed a website using HTML, CSS, JS, and primarily Google Sites. The platform has evolved to include various hubs and features, enhancing the user experience.
Building the Project: With the domain www.mindexpanders.org, I hosted all drive folders with an improved UI/UX, integrated lecture videos via YouTube embedding, and introduced various features. Students began actively participating, transforming what began as a solution for study material access into a vibrant community organization. The project evolved to encompass six major hubs: MIND EDUCATION HUB, MIND SPORTS HUB, MIND CREATIVE HUB, MIND BLOG HUB, MIND NEWS HUB, and MIND COMMUNITY HUB, alongside its own mobile app.
Challenges Faced: The project progressed smoothly until Google launched GEMENAI with a free API, sparking my interest in integrating AI. Despite initial hurdles, I developed a prototype featuring a custom chatbot named MIND MATE BOT, powered by the GEMENAI API. Positioned at the bottom right corner, it assists students in locating study materials, searching the site, and accessing instant help while taking lectures and slides.
Accomplishments We're Proud Of: We successfully transformed a basic resource-sharing initiative into a comprehensive educational platform with multiple hubs (MIND EDUCATION HUB, MIND SPORTS HUB, MIND CREATIVE HUB, MIND BLOG HUB, MIND NEWS HUB, MIND COMMUNITY HUB) and a dedicated mobile app. The launch of MIND MATE BOT, powered by GEMENAI, marks a significant milestone in enhancing user support and accessibility.
Learning Journey: Pooling resources from a senior, I organized and hosted them on Google Drive, making them accessible to everyone, everywhere, anytime. This initiative garnered positive feedback, yet I observed that beginners struggled with navigation within folders and drives. Additionally, the limited free storage posed a challenge. Determined to enhance user experience, I embarked on designing and developing a website using HTML, CSS, JS, and Google Sites.
What We Learned: Through this journey, we learned the importance of user-centric design and the value of perseverance in overcoming technical challenges. Integrating AI has broadened our understanding of its potential to revolutionize education accessibility.
What's Next for Mind Expanders: Moving forward, we aim to further integrate AI technologies to enhance user support and personalize learning experiences. Future goals include providing chatbots tailored for custom major subjects like Computer Science (CS), Software Engineering (SE), and more. These chatbots will assist students by summarizing lessons, cleaning code, scanning assignments for mistakes, and offering personalized learning recommendations. Additionally, we plan to explore other innovative use cases for AI, such as providing real-time coding assistance, facilitating group project collaboration, and offering career guidance based on individual interests and skills. Expanding our platform's features and outreach initiatives are also on the horizon as we continue to empower learners through MIND EXPANDERS.
Conclusion: The project is still in its nascent stage, continually introducing new features to enhance students' learning experiences. Through perseverance and innovation, we aim to revolutionize education accessibility and support through AI integration, fostering a thriving learning community at MIND EXPANDERS.
