Project scope
- What is the main goal for this project?
-
Our startup company would like to explore designing a prototype for a native mobile application. We have designed a mockup with the desired features and are looking for someone to optimize UI/UX to capture more user activity.
Tasks may include:
- Conducting background research on similar applications.
- Using our Mockup as a base and researching how to optimize it.
- Learning and using various software design tools. We strongly recommend students learn how to use Figma as this is the latest and greatest tool currently available.
- Creation of a screen by screen UX / UI prototype of a native mobile application which can be used on both iOS and Android.
- Conducting UX / UI testing with real potential users potentially involving paper prototypes or other software tools to support this.
*Learners will agree to not disclose any information on the content of this project unless previously discussed with us or publicly available online.*
- What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?
-
By the end of the project, students should complete the following list of activities:
- Familiarize themselves with our future product
- Familiarize themselves with a design tool of their choosing and understand how it works. We strongly recommend Figma.
- Design and build inside of the design tool all the needed screens for a mobile application prototype of our product.
- Present the final design screens to us with the context of all the choices they made, problems they encountered, and next steps they recommend.
Bonus steps would include:
- Conducting any sort of user testing on the prototypes to ensure ease of use and to collect user feedback.
Final deliverables should include
- The design screens and all assets in a shareable format.
- A presentation as stated above of the final designs.

- How will you support learners in completing the project?
-
Students will connect directly with us for mentorship throughout the project. We will be able to provide answers to questions such as:
- Current product understanding
- Industry standard design tools and applications
- Any sort of branding or styling advice
- Input on choices, problems or anything else the students might encounter
- What skills or technologies will help learners to complete the project?
-
In order to complete this project, students can self-teach, but it is beneficial to be familiar with:
- Industry design tools such as Figma or InVision
- Up to date design philosophy standards
- Human computer interaction concepts
- UX / UI design experience
Nice to have for students include
- User testing strategies
Students will be expected to research and learn more about this above as the project goes along.
