Professional Feedback
Amazing application and the incorporation of AI into your project! I would love to see more of the research that informed the application. Maybe some metrics? A couple user personas (it could be the student, parents or both!) would also be really helpful.
Your prototype was so well put together from start to finish and I enjoyed going through the click-through. The map with the schools and being able to view the school details was great, and I really liked the feature to favorite the schools. I think what would make this application even better:
- Further developing the profile page - maybe something that a student could include in their profile is interests, or favorite subjects? Or more areas that help inform the app of how well the student-school may fit together.
- This is very nitpick but when viewing the school, the search bar sometimes blends in with the information being shown. If there’s a better way to visually separate the information, or remove the search when viewing the school, that may be a good option.
- I’m getting this weird line that goes through the school information when viewing each school (I don’t know if it’s just my laptop, but any way to possibly troubleshoot this would be great)
Overall I was very impressed! Keep up the good work!
