TOPPY - Online learning system
Techstack: MySQL, PostgreSQL, Python, Django, Flutter, Open edX
Introduction
Toppy, a promising edtech startup, envisioned a revolutionary online learning platform for K-12 students in Vietnam
Offering a wide array of subjects from Math and Science to English, IELTS, and TOEIC prep.
Aimed to cater to diverse learning styles with both self-paced and tutored learning options, accessible seamlessly across web and mobile (iOS and Android) platforms.
Challenge
Toppy faced several critical challenges:
Fragmented user experience: The platform had multiple disconnected modules, leading to a 40% drop-off rate during onboarding.
Limited scalability: The platform could only support 2,000 concurrent users, causing frequent crashes during peak hours.
Low engagement: Only 25% of students actively used the platform for more than a month, primarily due to a lack of interactive and personalized features.
High development costs: Building and maintaining separate apps for iOS and Android consumed 40% of the IT budget, leaving little room for innovation.
Toppy needed a unified, scalable, and engaging solution to achieve their vision and support their growing user base.
Solutions
With expertise in IT outsourcing and custom software development, ElevenX designed and built a future-ready platform tailored to Toppy’s needs:
1. Unified Platform with Cross-Platform Compatibility:
Developed a single codebase using React Native, enabling seamless access across web, iOS, and Android platforms. This reduced development costs by 30% and ensured consistent user experience across devices.
Integrated Single Sign-On (SSO) for easy access to all features, reducing the drop-off rate to under 15%.
2. Interactive and Personalized Learning Experiences:
Introduced AI-driven personalization using Python and TensorFlow, offering tailored learning paths based on student performance and preferences. This increased student engagement by 35%.
Added interactive tools such as quizzes, flashcards, and virtual whiteboards to make learning more engaging.
3. Cost Optimization and Future-Proofing:
Automated routine maintenance tasks, cutting operational costs by 25%.
Designed the platform with a modular architecture, allowing easy integration of new features as Toppy grows.
Result
Toppy is an edtech (educational technology) platform that brings students an easier and more effective online learning experience. Providing Math, Physics, Chemistry, English, IELTS, and TOEIC courses from grades 1 to 12. Students can choose self-study or study with a teacher (tutoring). The system includes both a web version and an App version (iOS and Android)
