Project Overview

Achievo is a task management application designed specifically for students to help them manage their tasks, organize assignments, and track deadlines. The goal of Achievo is to provide a user-friendly platform that addresses the unique needs of students, enabling them to stay organized and improve their academic performance.

Problem Statement

Students often struggle with managing their academic responsibilities, leading to missed deadlines, incomplete assignments, and increased stress levels. Traditional task management tools are not tailored to the specific needs of students, lacking features that cater to their academic schedules and requirements. This results in inefficient task management and poor time management skills, affecting their academic success and overall well-being.

Project Goals

The primary goal of Achievo is to enhance students' ability to organize and prioritize their academic tasks effectively. We aim to develop a user-friendly interface that integrates seamlessly with academic calendars, allowing students to track deadlines and receive timely reminders. Additionally, Achievo will offer customization options to cater to individual preferences and study habits, while also providing tools for progress monitoring and motivation through gamification elements. Collaboration features will be included to support group projects, and mobile accessibility will ensure students can manage their tasks on the go. Overall, Achievo is designed to improve time management and academic performance by addressing the specific needs of students.

User Survey

I have conducted interview to discover user’s problems and needs so I can understand them better and offer a possible solution

User Persona

From the survey I found that users are all about finding that sweet spot where they're not drowning in work, managing their time like a boss, teaming up with others smoothly, and making sure they hit deadlines without breaking a sweat. They want to balance their school stuff, hobbies, and life without losing their minds, work together with friends on projects hassle-free, and have tools that keep them on track and stress-free when it comes to getting things done on time.
