Students in dormitories
Administration
The project focuses on creating a comprehensive investigation of students' experiences living in dorms, focusing on the issues they encounter during their stay and the difficulties they may encounter during the application process. That is the students' whole experience, from the room booking to getting their keys to the dormitory's day-to-day aspects.
Problem
Studierendenwerk Siegen uses a traditional approach for communication and room booking which is time consuming.
Goal
Design an app for students that not only helps them to connect with dormitory authorities but also with fellow residents.
Solution
Designed an app for the students that help them with their daily dormitory related issues.
Admin Panel for dormitory authorities to simplify their work.
Primary Research
I engaged in an extensive research process, which involved conducting in-depth interviews with a diverse group of 10 participants residing in different dormitories. Additionally, I collected surveys from 42 individuals, allowing for a broader understanding of the experiences and perspectives within the dormitory environment.
Affinity diagram
Utilizing an affinity diagram facilitated the systematic categorization of each identified problem into distinct categories, enabling me to prioritize and focus on addressing the most significant issues effectively.
Personas
I created two personas for students.
Student who is applying for the dormitory
Student who is already living in the dormitory
User Flow
Taking into consideration the personas and the pain points of our users, we engaged in a brainstorming session to generate ideas. Subsequently, we developed an application flow that effectively addresses the identified user needs and pain points.
