Codeathon Activity: A Design Prototype for Real World Problems.

Activity-based learning helps students to learn through participation. A virtual codeathon activity, as part of this learning scheme, was conducted for 180 undergraduate students to focus on analysis and design of solutions to crucial real-world problems in the existing Covid-19 pandemic situation. In this paper, an analysis is made to know the problem solving skills of students given a single problem statement. Evaluators can further collate these multiple solutions into one optimal solution. This Codeathon activity impacts their practical approach towards the analysis and design.
