Abstract

The "Semesters Simplified" project addresses challenges in academic management at Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Technical University (AKTU) by introducing a dedicated website and mobile application. This technological initiative aims to streamline information dissemination, enhance communication, and foster an engaging learning environment for both students and educators within semester-based academic structures. Grounded in educational technology principles, the project prioritizes user engagement, personalized learning, and inclusivity. The chosen technology stack employs modern tools for front-end and back-end development, ensuring a seamless and responsive user experience. The methodology encompasses needs analysis, user-centric design, development, testing, deployment, and continuous improvement. The proposed facilities, spanning software and hardware requirements, are crucial for the project's success. The literature review provides a solid foundation, aligning the project with established principles and best practices in educational technology. Ultimately, "Semesters Simplified" aspires to contribute significantly to the advancement of academic management, fostering accessibility, engagement, and inclusivity at AKTU.
