Project Overview

I came up with the idea of a better way to track assignments given the very lackluster of school based organizational tools in 2018-19, i took matters into my own hands to come up with a app that specifically tailored to mine and many other college students needs at the time. I would go on to handle everything from design to development (my first time coding with React Native) and then test possible api features with my current school work. This is how I built a prototype for the App.

Discovery Phase

Quantitative Research

I interviewed a few student friends of mine and learned about what their needs where and how they were staying organized in order to gather the information I needed. These students spoke to me on how they managed their productive strategies whether it was digital or pen and paper. Here are the findings:

Solution Phase

Ideation

After going through all the information and recommendations i have received i went along and made some rough sketches about how i think it should look and run:

Sketches & Paper Prototypes

After going through a few paper sketches i came to that final design and went to make wireframes and user flows. My key was to keep the pages and navigation to a minimum to keep quickness a priority.
