 Visualization 

 Challenge    The challenge that we were going to address was about making the online education more   interactive , much easier and student friendly especially when there is a sudden change from   offline to online education . Students not only prefer going to school or college just to get   education but also many other things associated to their health and social wellbeing .   Comparatively online education lacks such interaction and practical knowledge convey   methods . 

 Selection   Visualization is about using images . It ’s not about drawing ; it ’s about visual thinking . It   pushes us beyond using words or language alone . It is a way of unlocking a different part   of our brains that allows us to think nonverbally .     When you explain an idea using words , the rest of us will form our own mental pictures ,   usually informed by our training . When you say , “ We need a new growth platform , ” the IT   specialist sees servers and code and the marketing guru sees an advertising campaign . If   instead you present your idea to us by drawing a picture of it , you reduce the possibility of   unmatched mental models . 

 The first tool I used was the tool of Visualization , or Visual Thinking to make a possible solution   for making online classes more interactive and help full to students during this pandemic . 

 I selected visualization as a tool to solve as the problem which I was going to address as it was   very complex and based on many thoughts that a student expects or enjoys during a complete   course session he / she gets from an institution . Making education more enjoyable and especially   during this pandemic when we all are locked down at home . 

 Application   I started the process by closely observing the online education methods and try to brainstorm the   problem that a student faces which creates the lack of attention to online education . Started to   draw scribbles on a blank sheet of paper . I took help of my teammates and drew in the sheet   whatever problem we thought to be a problem on online classes . We took some volunteers and   gave them sheets to draw their notion on online classes . 

 The drawing format was 11 ” X 14 ” tracing paper . This size provided a compromise between   smaller formats where often it is difficult to explore details , and larger formats that are difficult   to fill . In the initial phase team members and volunteers were challenged to move beyond single   solutions and explore a broad range of opportunities . 

 The next phase was to transform loose concepts into a meaningful design . This was achieved   through the construction of more accurate visualizations and sorting down the same points that   the volunteers expressed through it which communicated a clearer intent using tracing paper

 overlays to develop the design . Soon people were able to visualize the problem they need to   work on or the area they were facing the problem . 

 The final deliverable was a detailed drawing of their thoughts on problems faced in online   education and some sort of ways to overcome it , at last we found out complete evolution of our   concept on the way the problem needed to be addressed . 

 There were areas we need to gain data like number of student facing network issues during these   online education and how the teachers need to approach a particular area of their subject by using   more interactive videos and interactive new possible ways to solve a particular equation in maths   our field if interest . 

 INSIGHT AND APPROACH    By conducting this exercise with several groups I learnt that drawing or designing graphics   incorporates a person or a group of people essential feedback . Which stands is important for   reinforcing their understanding of the problem they are working to solve , the more precious   aspect of the activity is the shared insights and shared learning that occurs while they are   working to define their problem space . The graphic gives the diverse group of team a focal point   for discussion that allows them to share their perspectives and develop insights into which helps   to find root causes of their problems more efficiently and enhanced way . Where they could   create the graphic from a blank slate in a collaborative manner , and more easy way to veiw their   points they need to cover . People can quickly identify where they are in the graphic or if there is   something missing and can more quickly gain new insights about relationships between key   entities instead of taking time to identify them . A team working in a problem can also identify   variables in the problem space that is , it helps them to identify what they do n’t know , in what   areas they need to obtain information and work accordingly to gain data and pave there way to   sort out the problem in a design thinking approach .

### Task: You are a PII (Personal Identity Information) Detection. Given a essays written by students, you have to identify ONLY the following:
NAME_STUDENT - The full or partial name of a student that is not necessarily the author of the essay. This excludes instructors, authors, and other person names.
EMAIL - A student’s email address.
USERNAME - A student's username on any platform.
ID_NUM - A number or sequence of characters that could be used to identify a student, such as a student ID or a social security number.
PHONE_NUM - A phone number associated with a student.
URL_PERSONAL - A URL that might be used to identify a student.
STREET_ADDRESS - A full or partial street address that is associated with the student, such as their home address.
