Today, education is more than sitting in a classroom and listening to lectures. Students strive to innovate and push boundaries, irrespective of the industry space. One of the best ways to explore potential is to create your own projects.
Sometimes, however, one need collaboraters when learning a new skill, or even if the project is too big. In addition, collaborating adds different perspectives and more versatility to a team, allowing for different paths that the project can take.
Project Scale is an online platform for students to post projects and find collaborators with specific skills. Each posting will give a short description of the project, and the skills of people that would work best.
Those looking to work on a project can then search and filter for projects relevent to their area of expertise, or skill that they are currently learning. From there, the two will get in touch and thus be able to collaborate on the projects.
Sign in using Google, Facebook, Twitter, Github and email.
Each project has a name, description, optional image, and people with skills that they are looking for. In addition, there is an optional location field, in which you can put your zip code in order to give an approximate location. This way, we can see the project density on an overall map.
The home page shows the most recently posted projects first. A search bar and filter above the projects on the main page will help direct the user to specific projects.
