On average, people spend about 9 years in school, totaling nearly 80,000 hours. It's important to foster positive learning habits early on. Challenges like test anxiety, learning new skills, and procrastination affect many—about 20% of adults and over 50% of university students. To better understand these issues, I interviewed four individuals about their study habits and coping strategies, categorizing insights with an empathy map for deeper understanding.

In designing platforms for collaborative learning, I explored various features like individual study spaces, group study rooms, chatrooms, and statistics. My research highlighted that while independent study suits some, collaborative efforts often lead to greater achievements due to diverse perspectives. Peer-to-peer learning emerged as a valuable approach, fostering knowledge sharing and connections among like-minded peers, beneficial both academically and professionally. This collaborative method not only enhances study skills but also prepares individuals for future success.

In this phase, the prototype focused on the 'Study Helper' feature and its usability. Low-fidelity frames evolved into high-fidelity ones to test navigation and functionality as if using the final site.

With changes to the design, graphic updates, layout organization, and user flow optimization, the high-fidelity prototype reached its final form. Through the culmination of all these efforts, I would greatly appreciate your participation in testing the final prototype!
