DE-ESCALATION

Our app gives the users live counseling in case the users need someone to talk with, emergency button to notify the nearest adults, de-escalation steps to help the students calm down independently before needing the adults’ help.

First, the team came up with a list of problems we see around us. We decided to focus on school violence. Then, we interviewed different staff members to see a pattern of the interviewees talking about the prevention over the solutions. We used the idea “de-escalation” to teach the students to find ways to keep calm independently, and/or seek help from the adults.

Our project works by helping students to have self control and be able to calm down during a hard time with their emotions.

On the first page which is the welcome page it is a simple and fun way to create an account and it helps the users to log into their accounts or give them options to log in as a guest.

Once the user logs in, it will bring the user into the navigation page. It helps the user to find different de-escalation steps to help them calm down.

If the user logs into the live counseling page it will get the users into a live chat with counselors and the users can talk to them about any problems.

When the user clicks on the available teachers tab it tells the users what teachers are available and what teachers are not available to help the students and to give help in person 1 on 1.

If the user clicks the emergency tab it will show staff where any problems or fights are or any conflict are so staff won't have to go looking around for where the problem is at.
