I conducted a survey with 14 educators to understand their approach and motivations for learning their students names. Through a synthesis, I created three goals to be applied to the product solution.
Educators want to form a bond of mutual respect with students
Educators have an easier time learning names through cues
Educators find success in learning names through repetition
I organized a majority of information/touch points by classes to minify the difficulty to find class related information for users.
I conceptualized a few different ideas for the design through sketching and moveed foward with the design that worked best for the product.
After finalizing my sketches, I moved forward with creating wireframes. The goal was to make the design simple and intuitive for educators.
I created a style guide to help with maintaining consistency throughout the design.
Moving forward, I'd observe how teachers memorize names in real-time to better engage the process and their experience
I realized that inputing student names is a lot of work and though about the possibility of connecting the app with school's system
