DesignNxt is a website that allows students to take quizzes and view details of other bootcamps conducted by a hypthetical design school, DesignNxt.
Introduction
Problem Statement
The lack of a structured quiz system created many problems like creating multiple google forms, losing student data, etc. for DesignNxt (hypothetical) and their bootcamp students.
My Goal
My goal here was to create a solution that could allow students to have a platform for taking all their quizzes while they were learning with DesignNxt.
My Role
This is a Personal Project that I worked on as a part of my Google UX Design Specialization.
I worked as a UX Researcher and UI/UX Designer, responsible for research, analysis, wireframing and prototyping.
Tools Used
Adobe XD and Illustrator
My Design Process
Understanding The Users
I talked to 3 students and 2 mentors at a bootcamp platform based in India to truly understand their requirements and create a smoother experience for students learning at the bootcamp.
My Research identified the following pain points:
Handling Resources: The mentors faced difficulty in handling multiple google forms for multiple tests and students.
Forgetfulness of Students: It lead to missed attendance, in turn, losing marks
No Performance Tracking: Inability of students to track their performance in quizzes.
Target Audience
My target audience for this app includes students aged 15 to 35, seeking DesignNxt's bootcamps as well as mentors of the DesignNxt School

User Journey Map
Creating the Solution
Keeping in mind, the problems that users felt, I started working on a solution that was both easy-to-use and quick.
Here are the features that I incorporated in my app to solve the user problems:
Added visual elements like symbols, pictures and color contrasts for users to understand how they can move forward.
Added “Remember me” feature, etc. to make the app usage easy for regular users.

Usability Testing for Lo-fi Prototype
Users wished to have a home screen that showed them their upcoming session details instead of having to find them through the menu
Users wish to be able to sign in with a forgotten password
Users wish to track their scores easily
Mockups with incorporated solutions
High-Fidelity Prototype
Next Steps
In the future, I plan to add a feature wherein the students can view recorded lectures incase they miss a live session.
I am also planning to add a “My Certificates” corner where students can view all their accomplishments and also share them on social media.
