Abstract
In response to the challenge of ensuring reliable and accurate learning resources in
the field of medical education, our project proposes the development of an online
platform. This platform serves as a comprehensive assessment tool for medical
textbooks and reference books. Authors and publishers can easily submit their
works for evaluation, while experienced reviewers offer valuable feedback and
ratings. The platform aims to provide users with a reliable source of assessments,
fostering informed decision-making and contributing to an elevated standard of
medical education quality. With a primary focus on promoting transparency,
community engagement, and the continual improvement of medical literature, our
project endeavors to revolutionize the learning experience in the medical field.
Introduction
Build a user-friendly website where authors and publishers can submit
their medical textbooks and reference books for evaluation. Reviewers and users
should be able to easily access these assessments. Recruiting a panel of qualified
medical professionals and educators to act as reviewers. These individuals should
have expertise in different medical specialties. Developing a structured review
process where reviewers can assess the quality of the books based on criteria like
accuracy, relevance, clarity, and completeness. Create a rating system to quantify
the evaluations. Integrate an automated summarization system that can generate
concise and informative book summaries based on the reviews and ratings.

Rationale:
Continuous Improvement: The focus on ongoing assessments and community
engagement fosters a culture of continuous improvement in medical literature.
Authors and publishers are encouraged to refine their work and stay current
with the latest medical advancements.

Community Engagement: The platform cultivates a sense of community within


the medical field. Users can share experiences, insights, and feedback,
contributing to the platform's knowledge base. This collaborative aspect
strengthens the medical education ecosystem.

Efficiency: The automated summarization system can save users time by


providing concise book summaries, helping them quickly assess the relevance of
a textbook to their needs.
Objectives

1. Develop a user-friendly online platform for the assessment of medical


textbooks and reference books.
2. Enable authors and publishers to submit their works for rigorous
evaluation, fostering transparency and credibility in the medical education
landscape.
3. Implement a robust review system, allowing experienced reviewers to
provide valuable feedback and ratings for submitted works.
4. Facilitate informed decision-making for users by providing concise and
accessible book summaries.
5. Foster a community-driven environment that encourages continuous
improvement in the quality of medical literature.
6. Promote user engagement and transparency, ultimately enhancing the
overall standard of medical education and knowledge dissemination.
Feasibility Study
Technical Feasibility:

Technology Stack: Ensure that the chosen technologies (HTML, CSS, Bootstrap,
React, Redux, Node, Express, MongoDB, Python/Django, NLP) are suitable for
the project's requirements and can be integrated effectively.

Scalability: Assess whether the platform can handle an increasing number of users
and book submissions, including authority users.

Data Security: Evaluate the security measures to protect sensitive data, especially
when authorities are involved.

Operational Feasibility:

User Engagement: Ensure that the platform can effectively engage users,
including authorities, and accommodate their needs and preferences.

User Training: Develop a strategy for training authorities and other users to
effectively navigate and utilize the platform.

Data Management: Plan how book submissions, reviews, and ratings will be
managed and organized, ensuring efficiency.

Scheduling Feasibility:

Project Timeline: Create a realistic timeline for development, testing, and


deployment. Consider the time required to gather authorities and other reviewers
for initial setup.

Milestones: Define key milestones and deliverables, especially related to


launching the platform for authorities' use.
Methodology/ Planning of work
In the context of the hackathon, we will adopt a rapid and iterative development
approach, focusing on delivering a functional prototype within the limited
timeframe. Our team will leverage the Agile methodology, incorporating the
essential elements of the Scrum framework while streamlining certain processes to
accommodate the condensed timeline.
During the event, we will organize our tasks into short development cycles,
ensuring that each team member has a clear understanding of their responsibilities.
Daily check-ins will be conducted to discuss progress, identify potential
roadblocks, and make any necessary adjustments to stay on track.
To ensure that the prototype meets the basic requirements of our solution, we will
prioritize feature development based on the core functionalities outlined in the
problem statement. Continuous testing and user feedback will be integrated into the
development process to validate the effectiveness and usability of the prototype.
Throughout the hackathon, our team will remain adaptable and responsive to any
changes or challenges that may arise, aiming to deliver a functional and well-tested
prototype that demonstrates the core features and potential of our proposed platform
within the specified timeframe.
