USER EXPERIENCE DESIGNER
GET REVISING HOMEPAGE REDESIGN
Redesign of the Get Revising homepage to reduce clutter, provide clear CTAs ad to create awareness and promote the three main areas of the site.
The old homepage was very cluttered and had a lot of content that was difficult to navigate, so the main aim of this page was to providing easy, quicker ways to get users to content that is relevant or useful to them by creating a better layout and cleaner design.
On Get Revising users can find resources created by other community members or create their own. Users can also also discuss their studies with the community. The other main tool on the site is the study planner, a tool that can very cleverly populate a revision timetable based around a student's personal calendar and study preferences and needed.
There are two ways in which users find study resources that they need. They either browse following a pattern of level > subject > topic or they search for a specific resource. We wanted to allow users to be able to easily do either.
Non-essential information was removed from the homepage
