Project Title:

Automated Essay Feedback Website for Secondary/High School Students

Project Overview:
We aim to build an educational platform that provides students with automated,
curriculum-aligned feedback on their essays. This platform will help users improve
their writing by offering personalized suggestions in areas such as grammar,
structure, content relevance, and style. The tool should support both typed and
handwritten essay submissions and will need to be accessible via a simple,
intuitive web interface.

Objectives and Goals:

1. Educational Assistance: Provide actionable feedback on student essays to enhance


writing skills across various subjects.
2. Ease of Use: Offer a user-friendly interface where students can easily upload
and receive feedback on their work.
3. Custom Feedback: Feedback should be aligned with academic standards for
different education levels and subject types (e.g., humanities, sciences).
4. Scalability and Accessibility: Design the platform to support a growing user
base with different subscription levels for individuals and educational
institutions.

Core Features Required

1. User Authentication and Profile Management

• Sign-up/Login: Users can create accounts or sign in with email and password.
• Profile Settings: Basic user profiles with information like name, school level,
and subject preferences.
• Usage Tracking: Track the number of essays each user submits and display this
information in their dashboard.

2. Essay Submission and Feedback System

• Upload Capability: Allow users to upload essays in various formats


(e.g., .docx, .pdf, and images of handwritten text).
• Handwriting Recognition: Use OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology to
support handwritten essay submissions.
• NLP-based Feedback: Implement an AI-driven feedback system that analyzes the
essay for:
• Grammar and Style: Highlight grammatical errors and provide suggestions for style
improvements.
• Structure and Flow: Evaluate the essay structure, including paragraph coherence
and overall flow.
• Content Relevance: Check if the essay content aligns with the prompt and provides
meaningful insights.
• Detailed Feedback Display: Present feedback in a clear, paragraph-by-paragraph
breakdown, with overall summary points.

3. Dashboard and User Interface

• User Dashboard: A central hub where users can view their submission history,
feedback reports, and subscription status.
• Submission History: Allow users to revisit past essays and view previous feedback
reports.
• Progress Tracking: Display improvement areas and tracking over time based on
repeated submissions.
4. Subscription and Payment Integration

• Subscription Tiers:
• Free Tier: Limited access with a small number of free submissions.
• Premium Tier: Access to a higher number of submissions per month and premium
features.
• Institutional Plan: Custom plan for schools with batch submission and dedicated
support.
• Payment Gateway: Integrate with payment providers (e.g., Stripe, PayPal) to
support monthly or annual billing.
• Usage Management: Track the number of submissions available for each user based
on their subscription level.

5. Feedback Reports and Analytics

• PDF Reports: Generate downloadable PDF reports for each submission with feedback
details.
• Analytics: Display basic analytics (e.g., average grammar score, improvement over
time) on the dashboard.
• Notification System: Notify users via email or in-app notifications when feedback
is ready.

Technical Requirements

1. Frontend Development

• Responsive Design: The website should be fully responsive and optimized for both
desktop and mobile devices.
• User-Friendly Interface: Use a modern, intuitive design, preferably built with
React or Vue.js for a smooth user experience.
• Interactive Elements: Create user-friendly elements for submission uploads,
feedback display, and navigation.

2. Backend Development

• Language and Framework: Node.js, Python (Flask or Django), or another scalable


backend framework.
• NLP and AI Model Integration: Integrate with a natural language processing
library (e.g., spaCy, GPT-3 API, or BERT) to analyze and provide feedback on
uploaded essays.
• OCR for Handwritten Submissions: Use a cloud-based OCR API (like Google Vision
API or Tesseract OCR) to process handwritten text.
• Database: Use a reliable database such as PostgreSQL or MongoDB to store user
data, submission history, and feedback records.

3. Data Security and Compliance

• Data Encryption: Ensure secure handling and storage of user data and submissions.
• Compliance: Implement basic data privacy standards, especially if handling
underage users. Compliance with GDPR or CCPA is desirable.

4. Scalability and Performance

• Load Balancing: Implement load balancing and caching for efficient handling of
high traffic volumes, especially during peak academic periods.
• Server Deployment: Deploy the application on a scalable cloud provider (e.g.,
AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure) with auto-scaling capabilities.

Design Requirements
1. Modern and Clean Design: A visually engaging, clean, and modern design that
appeals to students and educators.
2. Branding and Color Scheme: Use a professional color scheme that conveys trust
and academic rigor, with a simple and uncluttered layout.
3. Responsive Layouts: Ensure all pages adapt seamlessly across desktop, tablet,
and mobile screens.
4. Clear Call-to-Action: Prominent calls to action for key actions like submitting
an essay, upgrading the subscription, and viewing feedback.

Project Phases

1. Phase 1: Initial Setup and Frontend Development


• Basic front-end design with landing page, sign-up/login, and profile management.
2. Phase 2: Backend and Core Functionality
• Implement NLP-based feedback system, OCR integration, and database setup.
• Develop the essay submission feature and feedback report generation.
3. Phase 3: Subscription and Payment Integration

experience.
6. Phase 6: Final Deployment and Launch
• Deploy the platform on a live server, monitor performance, and gather user
feedback for improvements.

Deliverables

1. Fully Functional Web Platform: A complete platform with all core features,
tested and ready for launch.
2. Source Code and Documentation: Clean, well-documented source code for future
maintenance.
3. User Documentation: Basic user guides or onboarding tutorials for first-time
users.
