WIZ-CLASS
Wiz-class is a digital paltform that uses VR(VIRTUAL REALITY)technology to deliver virtual reality syllabus in sign language for the students with the problem of hearing imparement (since these students use more of their eyes in studying or communicating than any other sense organ in their body ) and enables them to access quality education but as well as enable them to access various opportunities that they can access ghrough academic education since virtual reality focuses much on what you see to gt the concepts of things.
Define three specific objectives that you would like to achieve with your proposal.
I would like to achieve the proper deliverance of good and quality education for the people with disabilities but as well as reduce inequality since most of the existing platforms do not favour the people with disabilities. As following up with the sustainable development goals especially goal 4 and goal 10.
What problems (particularly in value chain competitiveness and global disruption) are your community’s stakeholders facing due to the Covid-19 pandemic?
The existing problem is mainly lack of proper e-learning platforms during this COVID-19 pandemic that help people living with disabilities since they are mostly likely to be left behind while other students with no disabilities continue learning during these tough times.
What minimum viable solution(s) are you proposing to address the challenge(s) in your community?
The solution basically uses VR (virtual reality) technology to deliver educational content to the people living with hearing imparement disability. This is due to the fact that these students with this kind of disability do use their eyes in studying than any other kind of sense organ so the use of VR(virtual reality) would be very useful for their learning.
Share your story (your narrative)
My name is Ally shengena Vuzo and i am from Tanzania. In the year 2018 i had to finish my studies but due to various difficulties faced by our family i was not able to complete my studies through that experience i wanted to help help other who could not finish their studies but also those who cannot access their learning materials especially to those with disabilities especially those with hearing disabilities since most of the learning platforms do not favour or include them in educational content that is when i came up with the idea of WIZ-CLASS to solve their learning problems.
Please provide any additional relevant information that you would like to share.
People with disabilities should be included in all aspects since know one is to be left behind.
Sounds good. But is this a sign language website, app or tablet? With a virtual sign language instructor factored into a simulated classroom environment, more clarity is needed in this area, thanks.
The virtual reality syllabus will be simulated in the virtual reality goggles and ot will not be an app or website but will be based on the virtual goggles
Dear Ally, thank you very much for presenting your idea. Education has the power to empower people and no one should be left behind!
I have some questions regarding to your proposal:
1. Who exactly is your target customer? Is your customer the same as your user or they are separate entities?
2. Who is building the content for the lessons? Is the content from a specific industry?
3. Who are your key stakeholders? Can you please give more details about them?
4. How do you plan to bring your project to life?
Thank you and good luck!
Hello Ally...Nice idea
but i would like to know if it is a web app or a mobile app
And what are they going to learn?
Hi. Agree with the questions below. the target audience and the need is clear and much needed so thank you. The solution is harder to fully understand the sustainable approach from what is written. maybe yu can develop that further in the next round?
I like this idea of working with disabled persons..
Its an interesting idea how do ypu plan on making it sustainable ?
Hi Ally,
It is a good idea of inclusion. In your explanation, show us how extent are the problems with hearing impairment individuals do face, in Tanzania? Include the facts or data. Add citation or references.
Status label added: Mentor feedback received
Is this educational content pre elaborated ? why not translating audio into sign language in real time?
great idea, biit how do you make sure those kids will have the right hardware? is epensive no?
Hi Ally,
Quick questions
Will this project target only those who are have hearing disabilities only? How will you be able to find them? Who will be your sponsors and stakeholders?
