Designing a Smarter Learning Experience

Overview

MyEdVault is a digital platform built to help training organizations streamline learning delivery while supporting learners through personalized, goal-driven study tools. From course libraries to notes and event tracking, it combines multiple learning resources into one cohesive experience.

Identifying the Core Problems

Through research and stakeholder interviews, we uncovered four key challenges affecting both training organizations and learners:

1. Fragmented Learning Experience Learners and admins rely on multiple disconnected tools, causing confusion and inefficiency.

2. Low Learner Engagement Motivation and course completion rates suffer due to lack of structure, feedback, and clear progress indicators.

3. Complex Admin Interfaces Administrators struggle with cluttered dashboards and non-intuitive navigation, leading to wasted time and errors.

4. Limited Insight into Learner Progress Both admins and facilitators lack clear visibility into learner activity, performance, and growth.

What We Set Out to Do

Our goal was to design a learning platform that simplifies complexity, motivates learners, and scales with the needs of training organizations. We focused on:

1. Creating a unified experience Bringing all learning tools and resources into one intuitive, cohesive platform.

2. Empowering admins with simplicity Making it easy to manage learners, track progress, and organize content without friction.

3. Encouraging learner consistency Introducing thoughtful UX patterns and light gamification to build better study habits.

4. Designing for scalability Building a flexible system architecture that could grow as the product and user base expanded.

Understanding the Users

We conducted interviews and reviewed competing platforms to identify what mattered most to our core user groups. The insights shaped our strategy:

1. Learners craved structure and motivation They wanted a clearer learning path and tools to help them stay consistent and accountable.

2. Admins needed simplicity Most were overwhelmed by complex systems. They wanted something intuitive — not another tool that required training to use.

3. Everyone valued speed and clarity Both learners and admins expected fast access to content with minimal friction or clutter.

UX Challenges & How We Solved Them

1. Fragmented Learning Journey Learners had to jump between tools and tabs to find what they needed. Solution: We designed a unified learner dashboard that brings together notes, courses, events, and videos — all in one accessible place.

2. Admin Confusion Admins struggled with cluttered interfaces and repetitive tasks. Solution: We redesigned the admin panel with streamlined navigation, bulk actions, and visual tracking tools to simplify daily workflows.

3. Low Learner Motivation Many users dropped off due to lack of progress feedback or incentives. Solution: We introduced gamified elements like streaks, badges, and progress bars to encourage consistent engagement.

Design Process: Following the SDLC Framework

Requirement Gathering

I started by speaking with the platform’s founder and stakeholders to understand business goals. Then I interviewed potential users; both learners and admins to uncover their day-to-day frustrations and must-haves.

Key Insights:

Learners needed motivation, structure, and access to organized content

Admins wanted a clean, easy-to-use dashboard without technical overwhelm

Everyone wanted a platform that "just works" without a steep learning curve

System Analysis

I studied competitors (like LMS tools and study platforms) to spot opportunities. Combined with user insights, I defined the core user flows and functional requirements for both roles — learner and admin.

This phase helped validate:

Which features to prioritize

What the MVP should look like

The best way to segment the platform’s features for each user group

Design

I translated our findings into wireframes, user flows, and finally, high-fidelity UI designs — all supported by a consistent design system. Every screen was carefully considered to reduce friction and promote ease of use.

Implementation (Design Handoff)

I prepared organized files, component specs, and written annotations for a smooth handoff to the development team. I also supported developers by clarifying edge cases, ensuring pixel-perfect implementation.

Handoff Included:

UI kits and component libraries

Mobile and web layout specs

Flows for both learners and admins

Testing from interactive prototype

Interactive prototypes were shared with test users. I observed how they navigated the platform, identifying friction points and making iterative improvements based on real-time feedback.

Results from Usability Testing:

Reduced confusion on the admin panel

Increased confidence in navigating the learner dashboard

Clearer understanding of task status and next steps

Deployment & Maintenance

While I wasn’t involved in platform development, I stayed in the loop post-launch, reviewing designs in staging, suggesting UX improvements, and proposing scalable enhancements for future updates.

I also laid the groundwork for future iterations by:

Building a flexible design system

Creating a feature roadmap from user feedback

Documenting design logic and decisions

Our Solution delivered measurable improvements for both learners and administrators, while setting a strong foundation for future growth:

• 35% increase in learner engagement Achieved within the first two months after launch through structured UX and motivational features.

• 50% reduction in admin onboarding time Simplified workflows and intuitive interfaces helped new admins get up to speed faster.

• Higher satisfaction among training organizations Led to 4 new enterprise partnerships secured within Q2.

• A scalable design system Built to support upcoming modules like AI Tutor, Events, and Certificate Management; without reinventing the UI.

Key Takeaways

Designing for both learner and admin personas helped us build a more well-rounded product

A modular, scalable approach was crucial for long-term feature rollouts

Early involvement of users in the feedback loop saved time during revisions
