Offline Educational Android App Development
Budget: $10,000 – $20,000 USD
AGL App Developer Proposal: Offline Learning Platform Conversion
Project Overview
Alpha Gen Learning seeks an experienced Android app development team to convert our existing educational web platform into a fully offline-capable Android application. This app will run on a solar-powered 8-inch educational tablet targeting learners aged 3–13 in low-connectivity environments across the world. The goal is to replicate and expand the current website functionality into an intuitive, responsive, and fully offline experience that integrates worksheet generation, curriculum-aligned learning videos, educational games, and child performance tracking. You will work closely with our design and educational teams to ensure the app meets our users' needs.
Core Objectives
- Transform StudyBank’s curriculum and worksheet engine into a standalone offline app.
- Integrate 60+ hours of lesson videos and 5 pre-developed learning games.
- Provide a flexible system for future content updates and syncs.
- Enable user progress tracking with offline storage and optional cloud sync.
- Design a child-friendly, educator-approved interface that is clear, secure, and scalable.
Functional Features
- Full offline worksheet generation -from stored question bank.
- Subject - Topic - Subtopic filter menus
- Dynamic rendering of question types: MCQ, true/false, written answer, cloze, image-based, etc.
- 60+ curriculum-aligned videos with playback engine
- Integration of 5 external game APKs - User progress tracking and weak-topic flagging - Sync engine that pushes student progress to cloud upon Wi-Fi reconnection
- Patchable content update engine with bundled updates - Secure data storage and GDPR-compliant analytics
Content Uniformity & Reformatting
Our content database includes over 20,000 question items, ranging from basic arithmetic to image-based science questions. These will need to be standardized into a unified schema compatible with the offline app's rendering system. Developers may be required to assist with ingestion scripting or build a formatting pipeline that cleans up existing CSV/JSON/Markdown records into app-optimized structures.
User Progress & Performance Tracking
- Log user performance by subject, topic, and skill type
- Highlight struggling areas using thresholds e.g., more than 60% accuracy over 5+ attempts
- Visual display of tracked progress: badges, charts, or simple topic completion visuals.
- Save data locally in encrypted JSON or SQLite format
- Auto-sync this data to AGL servers when device regains connectivity
- Admins can access or request reports per student or class group
Multimedia & Game Integration
- Embed 60+ learning videos provided in MP4 format
- Videos should match each lesson page and be viewable offline
- Games provided as standalone APKs will need to be embedded or linked via launcher-style buttons - UI must guide learners from worksheet, video, practice game smoothly
Offline Data Sync & Content Updates
- Sync trigger: manual or auto upon Wi-Fi reconnection
- System must upload usage data logs
- Check for new downloadable packs -worksheets/videos/lessons - hosted on AGL server
- Secure patch delivery system must validate and store all updated files
Security & Offline Data Handling
- No personal data stored: only anonymized usage patterns
- Data must be encrypted locally - Logs purged after 24 months
- Child-friendly: no ads, no third-party trackers
- Teacher/Admin dashboard access restricted by code/pass - GDPR and COPPA safe
Device Compatibility
Target Device: - Android 10 Go Edition - ARM Cortex A53, 3 GB RAM - 1280×800 resolution, 64 GB storage - Wi-Fi only, solar-rechargeable - No SIM or cellular data expected - Offline-first behavior required
Expected Developer Deliverables
1. Final signed APK and assets
2. Local content database: SQLite or similar
3. Patchable update system: script/tool for packaging updates
4. Optional CMS or admin dashboard - lightweight 5. Internal user manual / system logic documentation
Developer Insight Encouraged
While AGL has defined a strong structure, we are open to expert suggestions from developers regarding:
- More efficient offline data models
- Lightweight rendering systems
- Optimized patch systems or gamified UI flows
- Best practices for performance on low-spec hardware
Please feel confident suggesting alternatives where they improve durability, efficiency, or UX.
To Apply
Please submit:
• A brief summary of your relevant experience
• Portfolio examples - especially EdTech app’s or child-focused work
• Initial thoughts or ideas sparked by the brief - even just 3–5 bullet points
• Your availability for a follow-up chat or creative meeting
• A proposed budget breakdown for the project
• A proposed timescale for delivery of the project
If you are passionate about education and have a track record of delivering high-quality apps, we would love to hear from you!
