Continued Development of a Mobile Application

Ksalsuti creates materials and programming to improve the social and emotional wellness of children and youth. Ksalsuti has published its first three books from the Turtle Island Series in three languages. Each book contains culturally appropriate material that promotes wellness in children. Ksalsuti is experiencing growth and also requires additional capacity. Ksalsuti hired an intern in the spring of 2023 to create a mobile application to extend the exposure of its newly published books. A second intern in the fall and winter semesters 2023-24 further improved its functionality, design, and user interface. The app would greatly benefit from another co-op student who can further implement a kid-friendly interface as the project evolves, fully implement the app into the app store and Google Play store, and expand the gamification of the app.
