- Production Technology
- Alma was developed using AI-driven learning models and machine learning algorithms to personalize training experiences. It integrates with digital calendars for adaptive scheduling and suggests peer interactions based on shared learning topics. The Design Thinking and User-Centered Design methodologies guided the UX process. Figma was used for prototyping, while continuous user testing and feedback loops refined the system for optimal usability.
- Design Challenge
- The biggest challenge was integrating AI-driven adaptive learning while maintaining a human-centered approach. Developing accurate learning style detection algorithms required extensive research. We conducted both qualitative and quantitative research, including user interviews, surveys, and usability testing, to ensure an effective and engaging user experience. Additionally, overcoming resistance to digital adoption was critical. Inspired by Google and Amazon, we leveraged Peer-to-Peer Learning and Adaptive Scheduling to create a validated, user-centric platform that fosters digital readiness.
- Research
- This research employed User-Centered Design and Design Thinking methodologies to enhance digital literacy and onboarding. Surveys and user interviews were conducted with employees struggling with traditional training. Insights from Google and Amazon case studies highlighted Peer-to-Peer Learning and Adaptive Scheduling as key solutions. Findings shaped Alma, making onboarding more efficient, cost-effective, and engaging in corporate environments.
- Inspiration
- Alma was inspired by the need to improve digital adoption and corporate learning. Research showed that traditional training lacks engagement and human interaction, slowing digital readiness. By integrating peer-to-peer learning, mentorship, and adaptive AI-driven scheduling, Alma creates a seamless and practical learning experience, making onboarding more effective and reducing resistance to change.
- Project Duration
- The project began in October 2023 in Birmingham, UK, as part of the MA Design Management program at Birmingham City University. It was completed in November 2023 and received the Best Idea Award at the People-Led Digitalisation event, organized in collaboration with the University of Bath. The project was developed through extensive research and user-centered design methodologies to enhance corporate learning experiences.
- Operation Flow
- Alma streamlines learning by analyzing individual learning styles and suggesting tailored courses, mentors, and training paths. It seamlessly syncs with calendars, offering AI-powered scheduling for optimal learning sessions. Users can book mentors, track progress, and receive automated reminders. Alma fosters peer-to-peer learning, recommending colleagues with similar interests, ensuring an engaging, efficient, and interactive learning experience.
