E - Choose is a digital online course-choosing platform for Chinese high education instituttion.
Problem Statement
Course information is not available before the selection period, causing many students to choose classes that do not match their academic needs or interests.
Students interested in cross-disciplinary courses often hesitate to enroll because they are unclear about the course content, discussion scope, or hidden rules, which limits opportunities for interdisciplinary learning.
Important procedures such as dropping or retaking courses are not clearly explained on the course selection platform, leading to confusion during the enrollment process.
The information received is often one-sided, as it depends on individual experiences and opinions.
There is no dedicated platform to collect and organize such course-related consultations in a structured and accessible way.
My Approatch
Clearly categorize each course by field (e.g., Engineering, Arts) and indicate its level (e.g., Introductory, Intermediate).
Add a discussion section under each course where students can freely exchange information. A profanity filter should be implemented to prevent offensive language and protect instructors.
Introduce a “card-swiping” feature, inspired by dating apps, to encourage students to explore and learn about more courses in an engaging way.
Create a resource section where students can easily access materials from previous iterations of the course.
