The owner Avetik Grigoryan is a chess GM and now is doing online courses for his students worldwide. The Problem A chess grand master Avetik Grigoryan has many students from different countries. He was looking for an easy-to-use solution to deliver his knowledge directly to his students and of course to earn some money. The traditional teaching system was not a choice taking into account several factors such as: distance, different time zones, etc. The already existed LMS solutions also were not a choice because they could not be customized for specific requirements. The LMS solution required to be easy-to-use system for end-users (students) who are not technical and do not have IT skills. The Process We started from data architecture and wireframing. Our team closely cooperated with endusers and the client to understand the full requirements and expectations. Following the design trends and the UX standards the designers goal was to design the UI & UX of the system to be consistent with the client s brand and adopted to LMS Moodle guidelines. ’ ’ The programmers goal was to provide a final solution that can be intuitive to use and will consist of administrator dashboard, teacher dashboard, studentdashboard. This resulted a clickable prototype of the system and a final project plan. ’ The Solution Our design team crafted wireframes to better understand end user experience and client expectations. After this process the UI/UX design went smoothly and did not require significant changes. The developers team examined Moodle and LMS guidelines and used well-proven libraries making the development process efficient. ’ The final solution consists of 4 main parts: Administrator Dashboard Teacher Dashboard Student Dashboard4.LMS e-commerce Tools & Technologies Back-End Programming PHP7, Laravel 5.7, MySQL 5.6 Front-End Programming AngularJS, Bootstrap, SASS, PaymentStripe, PayPalSecurity SSL Design Concepts Wireframing, Prototyping, Visual Design, Usability Testing The Results ChessMood is an easy-to-use LMS platform created for chess learning and teaching.
