Inspiration

Motivated by the success of teachers pay teachers, I aimed to build a similar blockchain-based solution.

What it does

Teachers can upload their own and view each other's PDF lesson plans. They can also connect a Tezos wallet to the application, which enables some interesting avenues for future features (see below).

How we built it

The application is built in react and CSS.

Challenges we ran into

One interesting feature that I ultimately had to abandon was adding a form for teachers to write their Tezos address. This would have allowed for neat features like "tipping" teachers who have useful lesson plans.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

I have been eagerly waiting for an excuse to dive into blockchain programming, so I was very excited to successfully connect the application to the wallet software.

What we learned

I learned a ton about react! I wrote my first line of react code last week, and I am amazed at how far this hackathon has enabled me to come.

What's next for OpenEd

There are so many avenues for additional features: adding the ability to turn lesson plans into NFTs, tipping other teachers, and adding authentication to the app are all possibilities.
