The project is about a redesign of the RIT ‘My Course’ page. The current site is not well organized, not stylish, and has limited features. RIT Students usually have to use additional platforms, such as Zoom or Google meetings, to virtual group assignments during the Pandemic. From my project user research, students in RIT need available methods to continue the communication off-campus. So I decide to redesign the ‘My Course’ homepage and content page by mainly two processes.

First, the project involves a visual redesign of the website with the inspiration of Swiss Design style. While keeping the original RIT orange color and tiger element, the website was rebranded with a new color theme, a new layout grid, refreshed typography, and updated interface styles. The new visual will show a better information hierarchy and provide a smooth and pleasing reading experience.

Second, a closely course/assignment-based chat room function is added. While taking count the need and goals of students, the chat room helps them connect, complete projects efficiently, and achieve growth off-campus. Overall, the redesign of the website will allow the students to achieve their academic and social goals efficiently and appeal to the users both visually and functionally.
