The Challenge
The shift from notebooks and blackboards to tablets, digital records, and interactive displays marks impressive developments in education. The widespread availability of the internet and digital devices has dramatically improved student learning, spurring more advanced teaching methods. The rising need for interaction requires the development of new tools to effectively support teachers, administrators, and students.
The Client faced the challenge of modernising the educational experience to meet the growing needs of students, teachers, parents, and school administrators. The primary goals were to:
- Create a digital platform that integrates smoothly into diverse US school environment.
- Develop AI assistant tool that enhances engagement and improves e-learning outcomes.
The complexity and multi-dimensional nature of the project required a solution that could serve diverse user needs and provide an intuitive and user-friendly interface. The Client approached us as a partner with deep expertise in educational technology, capable of delivering a complex platform that could support a variety of functionalities.
02
The Solution
As the Client expects the solution within a short timeframe, our team suggested to employ an advanced development approach using AI tools capable of optimising and tightening up the software development lifecycle by 60-70%.
Thus, the development process was divided into several stages, involving close collaboration with the Client’s team to ensure the solution met all requirements and expectations.
The platform is a complex ecosystem covering web and mobile (Android, iOS) solutions, divided into 4 major modules: admin dashboard, school, student, and parent interfaces.
Key features include the following.
Digital classroom
- Customisability: The platform offers a highly customisable virtual classroom environment, enabling unique digital learning experiences through engaging quizzes, tests, interactive lessons, and dynamic homework assignments.
- Modules for different age categories: The system offers tailored educational content and learning experiences to suit various age groups. Each module focuses on setting educational goals, monitoring progress, providing feedback, and improving overall performance.
AI assistant
- Personalised support: This tool analyses individual student data and provides tailored recommendations for learning resources, practice exercises, and study strategies. It adapts to each student’s progress, preferences, and performance to offer customized support that addresses their unique needs.
- Adaptive feedback: Through continuous monitoring of student interactions and performance, the AI Assistant offers real-time feedback and constructive suggestions.
Responsive design
- Multi-device compatibility: The platform is designed to be responsive and accessible across multiple devices, including web and mobile platforms. This ensures that users can access educational content from their preferred devices, whether in the classroom or at home.
Online and offline modes
- Flexible access: The platform supports both online and offline modes, allowing students to complete assignments and access learning materials at their convenience without being limited by internet availability.

The discovery phase successfully established a clear roadmap for developing web and mobile educational apps and using AI in education, bringing the following benefits.
Admins
As an administrator, you can automate processes, enhance learning efficiency, and lower overhead costs. By conveniently overseeing all operational tasks from a unified platform, you free up time to focus on the quality of learning at your school.
Teachers
Now, teachers can ensure an enriching learning experience. The advanced system helps them connect with their students in real-time to facilitate continuous learning. The platform helps teachers share study materials, create assignments, and improve classroom collaboration through live polls, audio, video, and text assignments.
Students
Students have 24/7 access to AI Assistant and unlimited learning resources. Classroom recordings, digital content, unlimited practice tests, and animated videos enable them to learn at their own pace.
Parents
Parents can actively participate in their child’s education by providing access to real-time updates on academic progress, attendance, and behaviour. This visibility allows parents to stay informed and involved, supporting their child’s learning journey more effectively.
Altamira’s expertise in developing comprehensive EdTech solutions helps to transform the Client’s vision into a functional, impactful platform. By addressing the specific needs of students, teachers, parents, and administrators, the new platform is intended to modernise the educational experience and ensure that learning becomes more engaging, inclusive, and accessible.
