Designing a student planner
Turning scattered timetables, deadlines and revision plans into one student workflow.
Context
SociusFlow explores a common student problem. Timetables and deadlines can be easy to record but harder to turn into a plan for the day.
My role
As managing director, I worked on the product direction and how to prioritise a first version for polytechnic and university students.
Approach
I considered what a student needs at the point of planning: what is due, how much time is available and which task to start. I treated AI assistance as a layer on top of that workflow and identified privacy and operating decisions the team would need to make before release.
Evidence
The illustration shows the planning concept. It is a portfolio graphic and carries no student data.
What I learnt
An automatically generated plan still needs to be easy for a student to review and change when their day shifts.
