Crowd Inspection of Compliance with Covid-19 Safety Protocols in Schools

In this paper, we report on the design and development of a collaborative application for mobile devices, built by elementary and undergraduate students, whose goal was to help comply with Covid-19 protocols on the occasion of the resumption of face-to-face classes in schools in the city of Macaé, in Rio de Janeiro. Collective intelligence guided both the problem-solving activity (application construction) and collective inspection by students (application use) of the actions needed to prevent the spread of the Covid-19 virus.
