An incentive-based mobile application that provides a unified platform for students to access class notes.

This project was done as part of the Mobile Computing course at IIIT-Delhi. The team consisted of 5 students.

Idea

  • To have a platform for students of a particular course to upload their class notes.
  • This will make it easier to access their notes anytime, anywhere.
  • It will also help solve the problems where students ask each other for combined notes of the entire semester just before the exam.

Interactions and Design Evolution

After several iterations of user testing and feedback, we came up with the final series to interactions to provide users with the best user experience.

During our testing, we provided users with different versions of the app with different color schemes carefully selected from material.io. Based on the feedback received, we finalized the primary and secondary color combination as #212254 and #fe6443 respectively.
