THE PROBLEM
USER RESEARCH
With a focus on improving the web experience for students, we conducted secondary research to identify several overarching themes:
COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS
Current products offer isolated features and lack child-specific considerations. As a result, students must adapt to adult platforms instead of having solutions that cater to their developmental needs.
IDEATION
Upon compiling our insights, we translated key barriers into actionable product features:
WIREFRAMES
We researched different interfaces and selected two viable options: a horizontal panel that expands across the screen width or a floating widget on the top right corner
ITERATION
Each approach offered unique advantages and trade-offs in terms of visibility, screen space, and ease of use. We aimed to identify which design best balances intuitive access with unobtrusive browsing.
FINAL DESIGN
Setting up the extension
During onboarding, students can customize the font size, style, and line spacing, then select from colour themes optimized for different disabilities.
