Summary for X-plore app semester project
This project allowed me to enhance my creative thinking and user-centric design skills ... One of the challenges I encountered while designing the X-plore app was how to create an engaging and intuitive environmental learning app, with a specific focus on the declining bee and bat population, targeted both environmental enthusiasts and users unfamiliar with this subject. My lack of personal experience and knowledge in this field made it difficult to address the unique needs, emotions, and challenges of potential users of this app. This area was relatively new to me. Despite the challenges, this project was both demanding and enjoyable. It enabled me to immerse myself in the users' context, their frustrations, and motivations through research, which provided a solid foundation for the design process. Through a combination of literature reviews and interviews, I gathered essential insights to create a user persona. Competitor and SWOT analyses also contributed to a comprehensive understanding of this project. This research phase facilitated the generation of a problem statement that guided subsequent design steps, including ideation and prototyping. This process was personally fulfilling as it led to a solution that genuinely met users' needs. Reflecting on the project with more time, I would focus on implementing additional gamification elements and rewards to motivate users to contribute to the environment, engage in more challanges, quizzes, create and participate in enviromental events. But also develop feature that allows users to calculate the environmental impact of different choices, such as their transportation mode or diet. This can help them make more informed decisions. These feature will enhance the overall user experience of the app.
