Confluence
Learning, understanding and passing on knowledge are the foundation of teaching. According to the constructivist model, in order to learn effectively students must be actively involved: learning by doing.
Imagined by Théo Geiller, in bachelor UI/UX design, Confluence is a point of connection. A space where alumni and professionals are in contact with students. The application is based on WhatsApp or Messenger-style conversations. Users create new contacts through the Mentor Dating video-link function. These 5-minute video conversations prevent students from feeling isolated. Thanks to this network, hey feel more confident asking for careers guidance advice, they benefit from shared experiences and can ask for precious recommendations.
This project is part of Design portfolio 2020, a selection of 36 projects from this year which bear witness to the talent, creativity and know-how developed by the students during their undergraduate studies.
