Wouldn't it be great if you could connect the lessons taught in school to your real-world experiences? Sounds crazy?
Well, that's SCOPE for you.
In the midst of mounting academic pressures, it's easy to lose sight of the value of true knowledge acquisition. While digital learning tools have attempted to bridge this gap, they have ultimately fallen short. That's why I developed Scope - an innovative app that seamlessly connects real-life experiences with academic concepts, cultivating invaluable lifelong learning skills.
My role
This was a college project in December 2019 under the guidance of Minnie Bredouw. I worked as an Interaction Designer facilitating research, interaction design, visual design, copywriting, and prototyping.
I later won an award at CCa Sparks 2019 for this idea. I paired up with Shervin Nakhjavani and Shivani Singh to develop the business plan and value proposition framework of Scope.
Intro
According to the Deloitte study, 90% of American students use digital learning materials at home; Students do not just depend on textbooks to learn about new things around them.
Curious to know more about the dependency on technology in education, my team and I set out to gain insight into how high school education in the United States has been changing over the past decade and how it will change in the years to come.
Research
Focus on Educators Education System
Although our brief was to develop the future of work for educators only, we stressed that understanding the educational system especially with the integration of technology to understand the role of our protaganists, the educators in the system as a whole. We interviewed 7 high school teachers and students advocates to understand from various perspectives.
To differentiate ourselves in an already advanced industry, we needed to define a desirable role for the educators and how it would meet the needs of the system. We were thrilled by the opportunity to create something more meaningful.
Identifying tensions
How might we foster an environment where learning is embraced and rewarded along with achievement?
