Overview
For my major project in the HSC Design and Technology course, I ventured to develop an app prototype to learn about UX/UI design. This project was a journey, from designing from assumptions to a realisation to be user centred and empathetic as I adopted design thinking principles for the first time. This exploration transformed my understanding of design, understanding that design is a form to address the genuine problems of the users and not to be driven by assuming the solution.
Brief
Design a system through a mobile app to address student productivity.
Development of the design
Design Thinking
In my approach to this design, I adopted Design Thinking concepts primarily being user-centric approaches such as The Double Diamond. This allowed for a problem to be solved by directly addressing the issues of the market, thus led to a more successful design. This research is presented in the following section "User Research"
User Research
Consisted of user surveys and interviews
For understanding design problem
For the foundational design
For the first app prototype
