LU Serve App

(Work in Progress)

Helping students serve their community

We are in the process of revolutionizing how students find and track their service hours with a brand new app.

Our goals:

  1. Improve ease of finding good service opportunities in the students' local community

  2. Alleviate the pain of tracking and approving service hours for both students and supervisors

  3. Reduce hours spent by staff approving and managing service opportunities and organizations

3 Apps in one, student/supervisor/admin

Our task includes not only the student-facing design, but also how external supervisors manage their opportunities and volunteers and administrators who manage organizations and supervisors. In order to account for these we spent time:

  1. Interviewing admin and staff to identify current pain points and issues keeping them from achieving their top tasks

  2. Surveying and interviewing current students to identify top tasks and pain points

  3. Determining success metrics for each problem to measure the success of implementation
