Database Development

A participant portal was developed to allow teachers to securely upload classroom videos and engage with peers across the state. Each participant receives a personalized dashboard that serves as the central hub for required activities, including journal entries, discussion boards and other study-related tasks. The portal also enables participants to connect with one another through discussion boards, while PreSTAR researchers can communicate directly with participants by sending messages and notifications within the platform.

Graphic Design 

Brochures with quick science lessons and classroom applications were developed for preschool teachers . Reflective journals, where teachers could document their experiences and lessons were also designed.
