Project scope
What is the main goal for this project?

The Teacher App aims to create a virtual one-stop-hub for all teachers and their needs. We want teachers to access the mental health services and resources they need at any given time so that they feel supported enough to be there for their students.

Right now, our research team is interviewing users in order to better our product! You’d be a researcher on our team, working toward finalizing a report on the information gathered over the course of 2-3 months. This information would be used to support our tech team in their 2nd phase of iterations! It’s an exciting time!

Important dates:

  • Last day to apply- September 9th
  • Start date- September 12th
  • End date - December 19th

What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?

We envision this project to include but not be limited to:

  • Recruiting participants
  • Running a research project by first interviewing teachers, principals, education workers, students, on their experiences in the classrooms of Canada today.
  • Working with our external team to analyze data collected, and report on it so it’s digestible to our other departments on the team.

Final deliverables:

  • A report on findings to implement into product iteration
About the company

Prioritizing Mental Health Education. We are designing a tool that aims to connect teachers across Canada with the support they need to build resiliency within themselves and their students. The Teacher App serves to curate a hub for Canadian teachers where they can feel anchored in order to best support their students in their education. This will serve as a tool that offers teachers access to crucial resources, professional mental health services, and connection with other teachers and classrooms across Canada. Teachers deserve accessible, affordable, and appropriate support for their needs both inside and outside the classroom. What is currently available today is not sufficient for our teachers to thrive in their workplace, let alone our students.
