Background
"Together" is a digital content platform jointly developed
by the Ministry of Education and KERIS (Korea Education and
Research Information Service) to protect students.

The app is designed to detect early signs of school violence

through assessments and provide protection and counseling

support for affected students. This enables students to receive

urgent support quickly by reporting school violence anytime, anywhere.

My Role
I had the chance to assist with a variety of design tasks alongside
a senior designer. These included overall app design, maintaining
design system consistency, branding, and creating event designs
for marketing, all in line with the client’s requests.
*Similar to "Cyverse" (one of the three projects on my main homepage),
we were able to acquire the "Together" project by submitting a bid
on KONEPS (Korea ON-line E-Procurement System).

The main features of this app are: 1.Standard Survey (created separately by KERIS)

and 2.Custom Survey (created by homeroom teachers).

We tested the “Results” page with teachers using an internally created

prototype. Since it was an initial test, we planned to iterate quickly

and conduct it on a small scale rather than a large one.

During the testing process, users frequently mentioned issues

regarding the "intuitive" aspects of the interface.

Specifically, there was feedback that users wanted to immediately

see the ongoing survey results. Based on this, we reviewed

the survey page from different perspectives.

During the meeting after testing, we decided to further

develop the "Results" page based on the testing feedback and

additional input from the client. I also reviewed the designed pages

and identified areas that felt awkward, which we plan to refine.

The initial brief test helped us identify the key problem areas to focus on.

After thoroughly communicating with the client about these issues,

we were able to move on to solution ideation.

While addressing the main solutions at this stage, we found that the flow

differed significantly from the previous concept. Therefore, we had thorough

discussions with the development team before starting the design tasks.

Building on the functionalities of the standard survey and

custom survey mentioned earlier, I developed user flows for each scenario

to anticipate how users would interact with them.

In the overall structure, the survey tab remained divided as before,

but the common standards for both surveys were unified to include

the school name and survey progress status.

and divided the page into three sections, making the selection areas

more intuitively distinguishable.

The nature of the Standard survey (created separately by KERIS) and

so the concept of the results detail page also differed.

The standard survey was modified to display the entire student's responses

instead of categorizing results as 'Good' and 'Caution.' We emphasized the section

where users can check the survey completion status and responses,

minimizing visual noise to allow users to focus on this feature.

Previously, in the case of preferences, the answer options
were fixed in the selection type. However, we concluded
that the answers should be flexible based on the user’s situation. Therefore, we modified the answer box
to allow users to write their own responses.

For long-term answers, there was nothing more for teachers to write.
However, the 'Write contents' box made it seem like users needed
to provide additional content. To reduce confusion, we added the instruction text 'It will be automatically generated in the students' survey input fields.'
