Case Study: University of Delaware builds an ethical AI study platform with Lincoln Loop

University of Delaware launches AI study app in 4 months with Lincoln Loop

The University of Delaware's Academic Technology Services team had built an AI-powered backend prototype but needed to transform it into a modern, user-friendly study application for students. With a limited budget and short timeline, they required a partner to build a clean, scalable frontend. They engaged Lincoln Loop for its expertise in Django development and user experience design.

Lincoln Loop built a lightweight Django frontend with HTMX and Tailwind CSS, creating an intuitive flashcard-based study app. The solution included features for both students and faculty, such as a deck builder, study sessions, and progress tracking. The project gave the university a cohesive, branded platform ready for pilot testing, allowing students to study more effectively and faculty to measure engagement, successfully proving out an ethical use of AI in education.
