🏆 1st Place — 2023 DLC FBLA Coding & Programming Competition
Tokened addresses a real problem in schools: low student attendance and disengagement at events. The platform tracks student participation and awards digital tokens as rewards, creating a gamification loop that incentivizes consistent attendance.
Teachers manage events and verify attendance through a secure code system. Students accumulate tokens redeemable for rewards, creating measurable engagement improvement over time.
