Bachelor's thesis

Abstract:

This bachelor's thesis is about the studying and creation of a specialized social network that would be able to handle all the unique challenges universities are facing during the pandemic. The title of this thesis is "Social Network: The Effect Of A Social Network Specialized For University", it will dive deep into the experiences when it comes to administration, education, and social issues that have been amplified by moving classes online so suddenly. The pandemic has changed how students learn, and communicate with each other, as well as with teachers and administrative bodies. That’s why there should be a digital solution that could bridge gaps in communication and preserve what university life means. The author of this project wants to make a digital hub for students, teachers, administration staff, and everyone else involved in university life. It will have features like networking (social media style), event updates, academic resource sharing as well as opportunities for internships or jobs — all made especially for universities. This network aims to recreate the feeling of being at an actual university on your home computer. In terms of software design patterns, this thesis uses React for user interface because it’s one of the most popular frameworks at the moment known for its intuitiveness and simplicity. Redux is used to handle business logic layer management whilst Axios covers server communication tasks. All those technologies combined create a platform that will work fast without leaving anyone scratching their heads. This research might give birth to something truly useful in times like these where educational institutions can’t afford another lockdown due to unforeseen circumstances like COVID-19. By blending technical innovation with an understanding of what people need from a user perspective, this comprehensive list could help enhance educational engagement and communication even more than what we’ve had before 2020.
