KidBot
A platform for educators to create and share educational activities with their students to encourage engagement and team building while learning remotely.
The Design Challenge
Paired with 2 other designers and 2 engineers, our team was given 24 hours to come up with an MVP to solve a problem in a designated problem space - pandemic living. We were tasked to deliver a working prototype and a pitch of the solution at the end.
The Problem
Educators and students alike are facing unprecedented challenges during these times, and since listening to the user is what we do, we set out to understand these challenges from both points of view by phoning a few teachers and parents to hear about their experiences. We learned that teachers are struggling with limited online resources to bring their curriculum online. Educators and parents agreed - “It’s tough to keep kids engaged”. Enter KidBot.
The Solution

Conclusion
We quickly agreed on creating a product to bring value to the education sector and were all very ambitious going in. Sharing our ideas with the engineers, the design team quickly learned the constraints of what could actually be developed within the timeframe.
