EduToday
EduToday is a proposed social educational platform that would allow users to both take and create online courses for free or for a fee. It aims to address limitations of existing platforms by offering a wider range of interactive learning tools and materials, and allowing anyone to publish educational content. The platform would integrate multimedia lessons, interactive modules, a knowledge library, communication tools, and gamification elements to provide an engaging learning experience. It seeks funding to further develop the platform and core courses, expand mobile access, and market the solution to educational institutions, businesses, authors and individual learners.
