Peer to Peer mentoring app
University of Sydney
At the University of Sydney, I lead an initiative for peer to peer mentoring to improve the student experience for its undergraduate and post undergraduate Peer Mentoring programs. I led the end to end project from research/ discovery, codesigns workshops to clickable prototypes and user testing.
Final hi fidelity designs
Discovery phase: heuristics, research, customer feedback and co-design workshop
A series of co-designs workshop for University of Sydney's was proposed with both mentors and mentees to design the fusture state.
By visualizing the end-to-end journey and conducting deep dives into specific touchpoints, we gained a comprehensive understanding of where inefficiencies lie and where student stressors are most acute. These insights not only guided our discussions on refining procedures and reducing processing times but also sparked innovative ideas for implementing new technologies and support frameworks. The workshop underscored our commitment to student welfare though
user-centered design solutions at the University of Sydney.
Peer mentoring redesign
The final interface design for Peer to Peer represents the culmination of a meticulous design process focused on enhancing the student experience. It embodies a user-centered approach that integrates feedback from students, faculty, and stakeholders to create a solution that meets diverse needs.
The interface is designed to be intuitive and accessible, offering clear navigation pathways and seamless access to essential support services. Emphasizing visual clarity and consistency with the university’s brand guidelines, the design ensures that students can easily locate resources, access academic guidance, and engage with support staff. By prioritizing usability and functionality, the final interface design aims to empower students, foster academic success, and cultivate a supportive campus environment at the University of Sydney.
