If you're building an EdTech product, UX research is NOT optional 🚫 For most products, great UX is important for conversion and engagement. But for EdTech, poor UX is an absolute dealbreaker that will completely undermine your product's ability to facilitate learning. Here are 3 reasons why UX research deserves extra investment for EdTech: 🧠 Learning is cognitively demanding - EdTech UX must reduce mental friction to keep students focused. Research reveals stumbling blocks. 📡 One size doesn't fit all - Students have diverse learning needs, motivation, environments, and more. Research makes sure you take these factors into account when developing your product. 👩🏫 Teaching is complex - Educators utilize various instructional methods depending on the subject and student needs. Research captures this complexity. For other products, you can sometimes get away with optimizing UX after launch. But EdTech demands a learner-centered design from the start, which intensive upfront UX research provides. How do you make sure you collect data for your learning products? #UXResearch #learning #EdTech

When I started to teach the UX, I accidentally came with one of the best solutions for making my students more involved and interacting with each other, comparing to other courses at that moment - the dual role of a student. The idea was simple: on the 2nd-3rd lesson, when we already knew each other a little I asked them to bring at least 3 ideas of the projects they would like to develop. We spent the whole 2 hours discussing them, proposing variations, improvements. Key rule: no negativity. At the end of the lesson we did one more thing: each student had to pick up idea of ANOTHER student for research and development. This approach pushed them towards being a designer and a product owner simultaneously. There was no chance to escape and do something all-alone for themselves, alternating from their own biases, like ot happens regular education processes. The necessity for communication developed from early stages leading to a better results, broader views and openness to the changes. Reading "Alchemy" by Rory Sutherland reminded me of this.
