CTRL-R is a mobile-responsive web application that is accessible to all devices! This project aims to help Pyramid CDC and their mission to provide IT and software education resources to everyone in Linden, but especially high schoolers.
We know how much high schoolers love games, and a little competition is always fun! That is why we created a fun and engaging level and points system for our courses. For each course or certification you complete, you earn points. The more difficult/comprehensive the course, the more points you get. Those points can accumulate over time, and with enough points you can redeem them for gift cards, or for credits towards other higher level courses and certifications!
But those points aren't just for you... as you gain points, you increase in level. And those levels and points help place you on our monthly leaderboard! Our leaderboard functionality helps to provide a fun level of competition against one another, and in addition, those who top the leaderboards are rewarded!
What tools does CTRL-R provide to administrators and NGOs to help garner interest and build community?
CTRL-R has an admin page, as well as a general user page. The admin page allows administrators to view all students, their current course status, and grants them the ability to validate a user's course completion, and subsequently issue them gift cards and credits for their progress. Courses can be marked by whether or not they require DIY tech kits, and if does, users will specify their mailing address so that they can properly receive those kits.
NGOs and administrators also have access to a community calendar where they can plan events, provide virtual links, and communicate to the whole CTRL-R community! There is also an outreach page where NGOs and other non profits can openly advertise their organizations and activities!
We also have a welcoming home page with user testimonials, mission statements, and why they should get paid to come get educated!
