PeerUp is a mobile and desktop application that allows classmates to connect to each other to ask questions, work on homework, and study utilizing location-based technology. Students begin by logging into the app and indicating for which class they are studying. Students can then see other individuals or groups of classmates who are already hard at work. The user simply requests to join one of these sessions, messages their classmate(s) and meets at an agreeable location. As students use the app they earn virtual "points" which can be redeemed at local businesses for free or discounted products.
