Outcome

Applying the Triple Diamond method, we derived a well-defined approach. Concurrently, we engaged in diverse design thinking methodologies, including Crazy 8, mind mapping, exploring the worst possible ideas, and utilizing the value proposition canvas. This multifaceted approach has empowered us to shape a genuinely unique and innovative solution.

Research- competitor analysis, affinity diagram, value proposition canvas, balsamic wireframes, user testing, Heuristic evaluation, Hi-fi prototypes, iterations.

The login page is designed by keeping match between system and the real world.

As soon as the user logins in, they will be directed to the dashboard which has the list of courses and all the required tools displayed.

The dashboard acts like a central hub for all the student needs

The go to friend of a student is also available in this platform- The AI bot. For eg- Asking for a summary of notes of lecture 1 of IDEA-9301, the AI bot will generate a precise note. Or if the user wants to schedule a meeting with the tutor.
