ARTEMIS
Danny Chmaytelli, Matthew Liberman, and Sinead O’Callahan
Our team:
Our high school uses Aeries which is flawed and doesn’t offer enough for our students (problemme, n.d.). We believe that there is so much room for improvement within and around Aeries (App Groves). This platform doesn’t have things we deemed necessary such as a weighted GPA calculator and a consistently functioning “what-if” grade calculator. So we decided to make an extension (Chrome).

Our Problem:
Justification:
After asking for the opinion of our peers and teachers, we found that a large majority experience the issues that we do. We surveyed our students and proved what we knew was true.
Easy to use weighted grade calculator.
Links to important school websites.
Bell schedule that changes based on the day of the week.

Final Prototype:
Design Criteria:
Shown is the code written to create a basic Chrome Extension. We used this create Artemis through more complex code using Javascript and CSS.
Our Competitors:
Powerschool:
Was almost almost chosen over Aeries due to many extra services. However, it is estimated to be the most expensive.
Edupoint:
An option discussed by the school and lowest costing. Though, a very young platform with less functionalities.
Canvas:
Acts as a combination of a grading and classwork system. Mainly used by colleges and is very expensive.
Next Steps:
Advertising: We will be requesting that the school adds a link to our extension on the school website and will be using social media to further advertise.
Improvements: As asked, we will be learning more about CSS and creating a more visually appealing version of Artemis.
