WHAT IS ASKCLASS?

AskClass is an innovative learning platform designed to enhance classroom engagement through interactive modules and games. My role as a UX Designer was to improve the platform’s usability and experience by redesigning the module structure, establishing a design system, and introducing new interactive features.

PROBLEM OVERVIEW

AskClass faced three major challenges:

1. Cluttered and Inefficient Module Design – The existing modules were visually overwhelming and difficult to navigate.

2. Lack of a Design System – Without a standardized design system, inconsistencies across the platform made future development challenging.

3. Limited Student Interaction Features – The platform needed more engagement tools to make learning more interactive and enjoyable.

DESIGN SOLUTION

Module Redesign

  • Simplified the module interface by replacing cluttered layouts with a structured, easy-to-navigate design.

  • Introduced icon-based visuals to improve accessibility and quick recognition.

  • Worked closely with the CEO and development team to ensure the new designs were successfully implemented in the beta version.
