The link to our final prototype and our project video is on the right side of this page or at the bottom of this overview if you are on a mobile device.

This project is focused on bettering the lives of students who experience anxiety. Our research showed us that time management and losing sleep were serious problems that students have and our design for this project focuses heavily on helping with this problem. Furthermore, our group used Figma to create the prototypes for this project. Figma allowed us to prototype our application without writing code.

Step 1

The first step in this project was to formulate an idea for a project. This step was done alone without the help of a group.

Step 2

Then, our class bid on which project we wanted to take part in. Thus, all the group members that worked on this project were interested in bettering the lives of anxious students.

Step 3

Next, our group formulated a project plan that described what our project would be and how we would go about completing it.

Step 4

After, our group carried out design research. This involved interviewing possible users and sending out questionnaires to determine how to structure our design.

Step 5

This step involved creating a paper prototype. Afterwards, our group converted this prototype into one that could be interacted with on Figma.

Step 6

This step involved usability testing with students that may possibly use our application. Then, we carried out heuristic evaluation using UARs.

Step 7

This step involved polishing our previous prototypes into a final prototype that built upon the usability issues we had encountered. Then, we created a storyboard that we would follow to later create a video demonstrating our application.

Step 8

This was the final step of our project. This step involved creating a video that showcased our complete prototype and creating the website that you are currently on.
