The StudyRoom application is an incentivized knowledge-sharing platform to engage student-to-student interaction. It is designed to allow students to discuss course content with each other by posting questions and answers. In addition, students can also award points to helpful content and earn badges for displaying unique study habits or reaching various achievements. Coupled with the question and answer platform, the application also provides tools for professors to assess their student’s engagement as well as current academic struggles in a quantifiable manner.
