Project Description
The journey to creating MobTech began with a clear goal: to build a learning platform that truly caters to users' needs. From students striving to improve their grades to professionals looking to upskill, I wanted to design an app that simplifies the learning process while maintaining high-quality content. The challenge was to eliminate common frustrations—complex navigation, lack of progress tracking, and unaffordable subscriptions—while providing an engaging and accessible user experience.
Project Details
Timeline
From ideation to execution, the project took approximately 3 weeks. This included research, wireframing, UI/UX design, usability testing, and implementation.
Background
With the rise of e-learning platforms, many users still struggled to find an app that balanced affordability, flexibility, and certification. Through extensive research, I identified that most platforms either lacked industry-recognized certifications, were difficult to navigate, or required costly subscriptions that limited access to quality courses. MobTech was designed to bridge this gap, providing an intuitive learning experience for students, career changers, and lifelong learners alike.
Process
The design of MobTech followed a structured, user-centered approach, ensuring that every decision aligned with user needs and business goals. The process began with in-depth research to understand user pain points, followed by planning and wireframing. Design iterations and prototyping helped refine the experience, while usability testing ensured accessibility and ease of navigation. The final phase focused on implementation, ensuring a seamless transition from design to development.
Process Details
Research & Planning
To create a user-first design, I started with research:
Conducted surveys and user interviews to understand learners' pain points.
Analyzed competitors to identify gaps in navigation, course structure, and pricing models.
Defined key personas, ensuring the platform catered to diverse learning styles and goals.
Key findings:
Users wanted affordable yet high-quality courses.
Many struggled with tracking their learning progress.
Users preferred bite-sized learning for flexibility during commutes and breaks.
Design & Prototyping
Armed with insights, I focused on:
Intuitive UI/UX: Designing a simple yet powerful interface that minimized cognitive load.
Personalized Learning Paths: Allowing users to customize their experience based on skill level and goals.
Seamless Navigation: Ensuring easy access to courses, progress tracking, and certifications.
Engaging Visuals: Using a clean, modern aesthetic that made learning enjoyable.
Throughout this phase, I conducted multiple usability tests, refining the design based on real user feedback.
Development & Implementation
Collaborating closely with developers, I ensured:
Efficient Performance: The app was optimized for both mobile and web.
Offline Learning Mode: Users could download materials to study without an internet connection.
Seamless Integration: The platform was compatible with different devices, ensuring accessibility for all learners.
Solution
The final solution was an adaptive learning app that met the diverse needs of users. Key features included:
