Case Study: EndeavorEd app concept
The concept:
EndeavorEd was a short-lived concept that would have filled a much needed niche in education. The project—an educational experience aggregator—was intended to allow students to collect their experiences and store them in one central, personal account. The unique aspect of the project is that any experience could be added to a themed container that could then be evaluated by a mentor or evaluator. The containers could include work experiences, online and on-campus coursework, and personal projects.
The challenge:
I was tasked with reviewing hours of recorded meeting notes to ferret out a rough idea of the overarching concept and how an app could work. The goal was to give potential investors some sense of how the EndeavorEd could cater to a diversity of experiences—from traditional college coursework to student driven learning to prepackaged branded learning modules from independent vendors.
The process:
The original notes and discussions were organized into rudimentary workflows. Mock-ups of onboarding and the container concept were quickly developed using Keynote. An initial version of the app was being mocked up in XD when the project was cancelled.
