At a time when online learning is the new normal and students are looking for ways to make the process easier, a Std VIII student of Billabong High International School, Husein Hakim has gone a step ahead and developed a mobile app – EDDY – which will make e-learning convenient. The educational app, which is yet to be made available on the Google Play Store for all, will help students and teachers access e-books, assignments and recorded classes as well.

Husein started working on the app to take part in Design Championship – a national level competition for school students in the age group of 9-16 years. This year the competition was announced in August and students had to submit their designs by September. Husein had submitted EDDY as a city-level entry but he did not win anything for it. However, this hasn't stopped him from taking the design prototype ahead and developing the app.
