Description
Summary:The increase of online learning and softcopy materials has given way for a need for learning to become more interactive, especially in the current days of COVID-19, where the lack of physical interaction can be a hindrance for students. The ability to convert the slides that lecturers commonly use for teaching into an interactive electronic book would provide an engaging way for students to learn, especially with the potential to include useful functionalities to aid learning in ways that traditional materials could not do. This project is to work on an existing application developed by a previous student for their FYP to enhance the learning experience at NTU. The project still has room to grow, by implementing new features or fixing existing features. Hence, this project aims to improve the existing application by solving issues and easing the user experience. Suggestions for further improvements of this project are also presented in this report.
