MITxWeek 6 –Assignment 6.2: The Final Product Pitch
Student: Elaine Matthews

THE FINAL PRODUCT
![Page 3: WEEK 6 - ASSIGNMENT 6.2: THE FINAL PRODUCT PITCH](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559445aa1a28abfa2f8b4869/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
My final product will be a site/platform that
is about teaching even those that are
uncomfortable with this topic how to study,
learn and memorize English (and many other
languages) lessons.
On the next slide there is a mockup of the
front page of my site/platform that is about
English lessons but as I have mentioned
before there will be other languages lessons
too.

![Page 9: WEEK 6 - ASSIGNMENT 6.2: THE FINAL PRODUCT PITCH](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559445aa1a28abfa2f8b4869/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
THE NEED FOR THE PRODUCT
![Page 10: WEEK 6 - ASSIGNMENT 6.2: THE FINAL PRODUCT PITCH](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559445aa1a28abfa2f8b4869/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
There is a need for this site/platform of mine
(especially in Brazil) because almost 89% of
learners find English (or any other language) lessons
at language schools or at regular schools boring and
also because learning English (or any other
language) at language schools takes too long and
employers can’t hardly wait for their employees to
speak English, Spanish or any other language as
wise as an owl! For educators at regular schools this
site/platform of mine will be a way to make their
classes/lessons more interesting and engaging.
![Page 11: WEEK 6 - ASSIGNMENT 6.2: THE FINAL PRODUCT PITCH](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559445aa1a28abfa2f8b4869/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
THE TEACHING
![Page 12: WEEK 6 - ASSIGNMENT 6.2: THE FINAL PRODUCT PITCH](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559445aa1a28abfa2f8b4869/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
My site/platform will teach English
(and other languages) lessons in an easy
and fast way; in a way students
(especially grown-ups) can learn
English (or other languages) and
memorize what they learn so that they
become as wise as an owl in many
languages!
![Page 13: WEEK 6 - ASSIGNMENT 6.2: THE FINAL PRODUCT PITCH](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559445aa1a28abfa2f8b4869/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
THE USERS
![Page 14: WEEK 6 - ASSIGNMENT 6.2: THE FINAL PRODUCT PITCH](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559445aa1a28abfa2f8b4869/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Learners (grown-ups or not), educators,
and people who want to fund the
site/platform or just advertise a product
will be the users of my site/platform.
The site/platform will be accessible
online from anywhere in the world (or
almost all the world), will have support
for multiple languages and will provide
high-quality learning.
![Page 15: WEEK 6 - ASSIGNMENT 6.2: THE FINAL PRODUCT PITCH](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559445aa1a28abfa2f8b4869/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
THE ENRICHMENT OF THE
CURRICULUM
![Page 16: WEEK 6 - ASSIGNMENT 6.2: THE FINAL PRODUCT PITCH](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559445aa1a28abfa2f8b4869/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
By incorporating my site/platform into
their curriculum, educators will enrich
it besides feeling accomplished and
feeling as if they were innovating their
classes every day and making their
students motivated to learn many
languages in a useful way.
![Page 17: WEEK 6 - ASSIGNMENT 6.2: THE FINAL PRODUCT PITCH](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559445aa1a28abfa2f8b4869/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
THE CONTENT
![Page 18: WEEK 6 - ASSIGNMENT 6.2: THE FINAL PRODUCT PITCH](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559445aa1a28abfa2f8b4869/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
The technology of my site/platform will
enable students to learn and memorize
English/Spanish/etc. contents through
motivating, engaging and collaborative
exercises/projects, etc. because my
site/platform will provide students with
a variety of projects/lessons that can be
used by educators and learners.
![Page 19: WEEK 6 - ASSIGNMENT 6.2: THE FINAL PRODUCT PITCH](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559445aa1a28abfa2f8b4869/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
ASSESSMENT & PROGRESS
![Page 20: WEEK 6 - ASSIGNMENT 6.2: THE FINAL PRODUCT PITCH](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559445aa1a28abfa2f8b4869/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Learners will be assessed within my site/platform. There
will be time-based exercises, reading comprehensions,
essays, score exercises, video chats for educators to check
students’ listening and speaking, quizzes, project hand-ins,
etc. Educators will have the opportunity to designate
especial tasks like projects based or just like the ones from
the site/platform to check on students’ knowledge on a
specific skill of the target language but learners will have to
send the project to the educator’s area so that they can be
assessed by the educator and by the site. The progress will
be displayed as a typical percentage, scores, charts, etc. in
PDF format and learners will be able to print it out. My
site/platform will allow educators, learners, etc. participate
directly in an environment that keeps track of their
progress.
![Page 21: WEEK 6 - ASSIGNMENT 6.2: THE FINAL PRODUCT PITCH](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559445aa1a28abfa2f8b4869/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
ONE OF THE ASSESSMENT CHARTS
![Page 22: WEEK 6 - ASSIGNMENT 6.2: THE FINAL PRODUCT PITCH](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559445aa1a28abfa2f8b4869/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
CERTIFICATE
![Page 23: WEEK 6 - ASSIGNMENT 6.2: THE FINAL PRODUCT PITCH](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559445aa1a28abfa2f8b4869/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Learners will be able to get a certificate
that will only be available for those
who have 100% in all exercises and
levels of the courses/projects offered. Of
the other exercises, quizzes, etc. learners
will only have a progress chart in PDF
format so that they can print it out.
![Page 24: WEEK 6 - ASSIGNMENT 6.2: THE FINAL PRODUCT PITCH](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559445aa1a28abfa2f8b4869/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
CERTIFICATE
![Page 25: WEEK 6 - ASSIGNMENT 6.2: THE FINAL PRODUCT PITCH](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559445aa1a28abfa2f8b4869/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
RESEARCH FOR UPDATES
![Page 26: WEEK 6 - ASSIGNMENT 6.2: THE FINAL PRODUCT PITCH](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559445aa1a28abfa2f8b4869/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
In conjunction with my site/platform I
plan to conduct a research on how
efficient and effective my site/platform is
so that new features can be introduced to
the site and those ones that need changing
may be improved/updated or discontinued.
The research will be based on the scores
and progress charts and also on learners’
and educators’ opinions through some pre-
established questions.
![Page 27: WEEK 6 - ASSIGNMENT 6.2: THE FINAL PRODUCT PITCH](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559445aa1a28abfa2f8b4869/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
THE BIGGEST RISKS
![Page 28: WEEK 6 - ASSIGNMENT 6.2: THE FINAL PRODUCT PITCH](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559445aa1a28abfa2f8b4869/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
The biggest risks I see with my
site/platform are:
• educators not using the site/platform
to its fullest in their classrooms and
instead using it only for “special
occasions” and continuing with
boring and demotivating classes
• learners not using the site/platform to
its fullest and not using it seriously
![Page 29: WEEK 6 - ASSIGNMENT 6.2: THE FINAL PRODUCT PITCH](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559445aa1a28abfa2f8b4869/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
THE BIGGEST IMPACTS
![Page 30: WEEK 6 - ASSIGNMENT 6.2: THE FINAL PRODUCT PITCH](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022060121/559445aa1a28abfa2f8b4869/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
I hope my site/platform have huge impacts
on all boring lessons/classes all around the
world (or almost all around the world) and
may be an interactive and engaging learning
environment to improve and increase the
level of millions of learners and educators
and I also hope my funders’ profits be as big
as their feeling of being investing on a
learning technology that has a real impact on
millions of people’s lives and careers.
