PROCESS

Client Brief

Online education gained momentum during the pandemic and has since become a constant for many students and teachers. While schools may have started offline teaching, students still take up extra classes online to gain a competitive edge.

For effective online education, the software or app that facilitates the education needs to be robust and easy enough to be used by the school children. If the software/app is too complex, then neither the students nor the teacher will be able to use it effectively.

Hence, when Mexus Education decided to create an online education application, they approached Yellow Slice to design the UI and UX of their app.

About iKen

iKen is an online education platform created by Mexus Education to promote learning through entertainment. It offers learning packages based on subjects and allows students, teachers, and parents to collaborate for the all-around development of the children.

The app connects subject teachers with students who want to learn to promote better learning experiences from subject experts and the progress of each child is communicated to their parents.

Problem Statement

Mexus Education wanted us to design an app that motivates students while providing support, reporting, and clear communication among parents, teachers, and students. They planned on achieving this through:

  • Rewards and emotions
  • Theatrical presentation
  • Updated curriculum
  • New teaching mediums
  • Tips and tricks
  • Visualization and statistics
  • Uninterrupted communication

We needed to keep in mind, all these points while designing the application.

Designing the Solution

We understood that kids and teenagers made up a significant part of the users of this app. Hence, the designs we create had to be bright, engaging, and encouraging enough to keep the students interested.

That said, parents and teachers also made up a good part of the app’s user group. Based on this understanding, we create the user personas to comprehend their aims and expectations from the app.

Think

The three different user groups of the app needed different features of the app to do their work efficiently. Hence the elements and task flow for all three would be different. We segregated our design process into three groups to focus on each user group separately.

Work Flows

To ensure that the user experience is as smooth and intuitive as possible, we paid attention to the workflow designs. Different workflows were created for students, teachers, and schools.
