Schedule Planner

Campus scheduling that accounts for the distance between classes—and the life that happens along the way.

Focus Campus scheduling & navigation Format 3:36 video prototype Approach Hand-drawn storyboarding

Problem

A workable schedule is more than a list of classes.

Students often build schedules without realizing that back-to-back classes may be physically too far apart. They also make everyday decisions—such as getting food between classes—without knowing whether the stop will make them late.

Solution

Connect time, place, and the student’s route.

Schedule Planner links class information with campus navigation to flag difficult transitions, suggest alternative class times, find food along a student’s route, and provide class reminders.

Design process

From scenario to storyboard

The hand-drawn language keeps the focus on the student journey: planning a schedule, resolving a conflict, choosing a practical food stop, and arriving on time.

The 3:36 prototype demonstrates the concept through a narrated, hand-drawn scenario rather than a polished interface.

Key interactions

Three decisions, one connected flow
