MANSA

Summary

Because of "COVID-19 "we decided to make a change in everyone's personality and behaviours. We made a book called "MANSA". Each chapter in this book includes a different story for a different character that suffered from Corona virus. We did that because we want to change people's awareness about diseases and the ways of protection to have a chance to have a better life. The narrator of the book is a father of a girl who lives in 2040 and the father was suffering from Corona.

How We Addressed This Challenge

In the midst of our struggle to find a solution for COVID-19,Nasa and space agencies all over the world appear. "The innovator pharaohs" team appears also. Our challenge is"The Art Of It All".

All the nations all over the world are competing to find a vaccine for the virus.Many agencies in the world want to spread awareness and people experiences in this crisis,so our team have to Interfere now. We think, design and transfer experience. We wrote a book called "MANSA".It talks about people suffered from COVID-19 and their experiences.

The first chapter talks about a fictional story that inspired from a true story.The (hope room) is one of rooms in an isolation hospital in UK. This room became a source of horror and anxiety to the medical staff in the hospital.This room became radiate despair and hopeless from its walls.Doctors and all who knew this room called it (The death room).Its patient is a COVID-19 fighter. she also suffered from a chronic kidney disease . one of her kidneys was removed 5 years ago.This made her recovery journey almost impossible for the medical staff who became unable in front of this intractable case. The only solution in doctors' hands was giving her analgesics, healthy food and alot of liquids, as nowadays we hadn't got vaccine for the cursed COVID-19.her psychological case was very bad.It was the night before yesterday in one of the wedding parties and she was definitely infected with the disease there due to the large number of attendance . The dark view was completed , When her doctor told her, "We can't examine every person, but it was better to treat you as being infected."

After a week passing in her isolation hospital and her eagerness for her infant, who was not nearly six months old, a new hope appeared from the midst of the clouds drawing happiness and joy on the walls of her room.And now the time has begun for a patient to leave the hospital "room of hope", leaving all the pain and suffering behind, inhaling the fresh, cold air, appreciating the simplest things that were meaning to her before, regreting her recklessness and hoping for a more bright future.For more details you can read the first chapter,but now we are with a miracle in the second chapter,this patient made COVID-19 a positive thing in the view of many people all over the world. He made it  a hope for a better future with more awareness .The struggler who was called "Sam Hawkins" narrated that his destiny surprised him with a semi-alived organism , people called it COVID-19. It changed everything literally.He had spent 20 years fixing lamps to light the lives of others . This virus closed his factory, this was his first shock , He became with no work, he couldn't light houses with lamps. After a week of that, one of his friends died with this epidemic , this is the second shock in his life.After that the chapter told us that he searched for a work till he worked as a clean worker in one of the isolation hospitals. A beautiful girl in the hospital transformed the virus to him. This girl took care of his children as their mother died.

He fought the disease and recovered to find his fate was bright. Now I recommend you should read the second chapter as you are curious. Don't be hurry man, there is a third chapter and a gift for you.The third chapter talks about a disease practitioner.He fought lung cancer and COVID-19 with hope and will. Our gift is a chapter for you to write your experience.

How We Developed This Project

The challenge "The Art Of It All "includes many different experiences for different people all over the world. These experiences can help people to know more information about corona virus, its symptoms and the necessary requirements that we should take to face the danger of the virus.In the world that fulls of disturbances, problems, despair, fear, anxiety and crises because of the new virus that we called it "Covid-19" , there are some people with good patience and good determination still have hope and try to help others coexist with Corona virus.So we appear to solve this problem and spread awareness through an amusement stories in our book" MANSA". 

Mansa team's future plan:


Every empire started with a dream ,and our book is our dream .we hope it reaches to the farthest of lands and ages . What we have now some chapters with some ideas and a great dream . What we aim and work for is a world changing book that can be taught in schools and universities . We left an empty chapter at the end of our sample giving it as gift from us to the readers to write their own stories which we aim to be the main source for our book's next chapters and versions . Our dream is great and we aim to make it greater .

Marketing plan:

We will take several ways to market our book, such as downloading a (PDF) version to enable people reading it from their homes due to these circumstances. From these ways we can show a samples about it. We can publish it in schools and universities' librarys. We will publish an advertisement in all social media so we will publish it in a faster way to more people. An empty chapter has been put at the end of book to enable the reader write his own story and we will renew the book by renewing the characters and the shape of book so that it doesn't become old.


           # Tools we used from A to Z

_ Our dream " MANSA" Book :

1. Processing program : helped us to write "MANSA" BOOK and change it into PDF.

2. Google Drive : used in creating a link that carries our book to put it on the website.

3. Translating program : we used it to change our ideas from our native language to English language.

4. Photo editing program : Our designer used it to make the cover's design of the book . 

_Communication between members of the team :

1. " what's app" : used in chatting and discussion of new ideas between the members of the team.

2." Zoom application" : we used it to start a video chat to make our arrangements.

Challenges that faced the team :

There are many challenges that faced innovative pharaohs team to reach our goal. First of all, It wasn't very easy to collect 6 members  with different ideas, experiences and skills to work on one project and to have one dream especially that all of us have no experience about these kind of competitions, it was our first time to take a part in it. Our little experience led us to face many problems like the mysterious of some concepts and expressions for example "prezi ".

The second challenge was how to communicate with each other without any meeting but different means of technology helped us to get over that.

The way to write a book contains different stories and examples of sufferance and to choose an attractive title for it was a big challenge for us

The hardest challenge that faced us was to get  real stories to narrate them in the book and it was not the only condition to be real stories but it also must be attractive to help us in marketing but by using different resources and by the communication with real people that suffered from COVID 19 We could overcome this challenge.

The time of the deadline was a very huge enemy that fights us but finally we could beat it.
