Design and technology work

Projects

Detailed project notes for resume links, including learning analytics, classroom intelligence, student-facing learning resources, and education technology prototypes.

Spurti

Timeline: May 2026 - Present | Status: Production deployment | Stack/focus: MERN, Node/Express, React/Vite, MongoDB, learning analytics, motivation engine

Self-regulated learning engagement system that uses Spurti Points, rewards, and motivation signals to help students stay aware of their learning habits and complete the courses or studies they start.

  • Built as a motivation and accountability layer for VLED Summership students, with SP Bank, student ledger, cohort ranking, rewards, and admin analytics.
  • Integrated Zoom attendance, poll, and chat data into a transaction-based SP system covering 7,248 student records, 19 sessions, and 48,000+ SP transactions in the audited production state.
  • Designed student-facing and admin-facing workflows to study whether timely rewards, visible progress, and engagement feedback can support self-regulated learning and course completion.

Spandan

Timeline: 2026 | Status: Concept and classroom exploration | Stack/focus: Classroom engagement, live polls, question generation, learning feedback

Classroom attention and engagement concept using live questions and poll-style checks without breaking the flow of teaching.

  • Explores how live classes can use lightweight question prompts to keep students attentive and connected to the teaching flow.
  • Uses the idea of small milestones and in-session checks so classroom engagement becomes visible without turning the class into a separate testing activity.
  • Grounded in VLED Summership discussions around attention, question generation, Zoom poll usage, and careful classroom interaction design.

Student Learning Blogs and Video Resources

Timeline: 2017 - Present | Status: Active teaching support | Stack/focus: Blogger, WordPress, YouTube, Google Sites

Open learning resources for CSE students through blogs and video lectures.

  • Runs CSE learning blogs to share notes and subject-specific support material.
  • Uses video lectures through the ICONIC BLOGGER channel.
  • Built from classroom feedback and recurring student learning needs.

Research and Product Direction

The projects are connected by a common design question: how can teachers and academic teams receive useful signals without increasing their workload? The technology is designed around lesson flow, learner motivation, assessment, and instructor decision-making.
