The challenge

Coursework was spread across calendars, notes, and task lists in this personal-project scenario. I designed a weekly board that separates what is planned, in progress, and done without asking the user to maintain a complicated system.

My contribution

Individual interface and data-model concept

The decisions

I kept the initial scope local and single-user. A task has a course, title, due date, and state. Overdue work remains visible in its original column, with a clear label instead of being moved automatically. That keeps the user’s organization predictable.

The evidence

The interface concept uses realistic task content and clear status labels. The edge-case checklist covers an empty week, a missing due date, a long course name, and an overdue item. The photograph gives software-development context; it is not a working application screenshot.

The outcome

The concept defines the primary screen, task schema, and interaction states. The next step would be a working prototype with keyboard testing and a persistence test before introducing accounts or synchronization.

Limits and next steps

A small tool becomes easier to trust when its state changes are predictable.

The next conversation

Let’s make something useful.
