DIYA

User generated video-based app to create, share, earn rewards for DIY projects.

Creating videos of your D-I-Y projects from school was never so fun and easy. And also, earn badges; and rewards that you can redeem for prizes right from stationery, books, ice creams, merchandise to educational courses. The more you create and share, the more you are recognized and rewarded. Doing your class/subject projects has never been so much fun.

We all know that video is permeating our educational institutions, transforming the way we teach, learn, study, communicate, and work. Harnessing the power of video to achieve improved outcomes—for example, a better grade in exams/assignments or more effective knowledge transfer—is becoming an essential skill. A key pillar in the drive towards improved digital literacy, video brings considerable benefits to educational institutions: streamlined admissions, increased retention, and improved learning outcomes.
