Student organization

Please tell me about your company. What are you selling, why are you selling, what problem are you solving?

Student Organizer is a program that helps students organize themselves. It tells them the whole plan of the day: what classes they have, when breaks start and end, whether they have advisory, a day off etc. It solves the problem that many students face, especially in schools with a block-schedule system: lack of organization.

The Design Cycle, hi-lighting Inquiring and Analyzing

Inquiring and Analyzing

Explain and justify the need

This is where I am going to explain and justify the need for my design. Specifically, I am going to:

• explain the need for a solution to a problem for a client/target audience

Many students don't know what classes in what order they have on Monday after the weekend as a result of the complicated block-schedule system. They never know when the break ends, whether they have advisory etc. A program that would remind them of those things would be really helpful.

• justifies the need for a solution to a problem for a client/target audience

-The most common question on our squad's group chat is: "what day is it tomorrow?" The person who usually asks that (Fischer) gets called clueless and roasted after asking that question
-Staś always forgets about advisory on Monday and after advisory ends he doesn't know how much break time there's left.
-

• describe my client/target audience
• I will complete this sentence: I have chosen this problem because _______. My solution will make the world a better place by __________ .

Identify and prioritize

This is where I will discuss what type of research I need to do. Specifically, I will:

• State the main points of research needed to develop a solution to the problem
• Prioritize the main points of research needed to develop a solution to the problem

Analyze existing products

This is is where I will list existing products that inspire a solution. Specifically, I will:

• Describe the main features of an existing product that inspires a solution to the problem
• List at least 3 different products that are like my solution

Develop a design brief

This is where I will present my main findings. Specifically I will:

• Present the main findings of relevant research

Creating the Solution

* Construct a logical plan

* Demonstrate technical skills

* Follow the plan to make a solution

* Justify changes made to the plan

Evaluating

* Design testing methods

* Evaluate the success of the solution

* Explain how the solution could be improved

* Explain the impact of the solution

Grading

This article will be graded using a rubric for informative writing (look on page 3).
