Language learning platform.

Regardless of your linguistic ability, sharing language is all about connecting. That’s exactly what the Language Tools (LT) does. The app is a vibrant community of language lovers that will help you thrive. LT helps students with a wide range of educational activities ranging from writing essays to talking to actual native speakers and fellow learners. In turn, with the help of the platform, the teachers can focus only on what matters most – teaching. No need to rack your brains over the payment process, scheduling, or finding students.

FAQ

What’s Cieden’s experience in EdTech UX/UI design? 

With 7 years in education UX/UI design, our team has delivered 20+ projects, from language learning apps to learning management systems and internal enterprise solutions. Our experience spans working with educational institutions, private companies, and individual educators. Check out our cases to learn more. 

Moreover, our designers regularly take private training on accessibility, gamification, instructional design, and data privacy and regulations. 

How do Cieden’s designers create a solution that meets the diverse needs of various stakeholders?

At Cieden, we adopt a comprehensive approach to design. We engage in thorough, collaborative discussions with everyone involved — educators, students, tech teams, and investors. Our team skillfully merges these varied insights to create a cohesive design that meets the complex needs of all parties. We're committed to ensuring that every facet of the user experience not only meets but surpasses the expectations of each group involved.

What will the process of collaboration look like?

Every project is unique, and we fully understand that. At Cieden, we avoid the one-size-fits-all mindset. Instead, we take the time to understand your current process, adapt to it, and enhance it. If your design approach needs refining, we're on hand to overhaul it. Picture us as that friend who helps reorganize your wardrobe: we keep what’s effective, remove what isn’t, and ensure everything comes together seamlessly. We're right there with you, sharing the challenges and celebrating the victories. Our relationship with you is collaborative, not just transactional.

With us, it's about effortless collaboration, no barriers, no formalities — just genuine, effective teamwork. Check out how we address challenges in the EdTech industry in our post.

How do Cieden’s designers approach user research and testing in the EdTech industry?

Our approach to user research and testing is centered around gaining a deep understanding of the customers and the end-users - be they teachers or students. We start by identifying the key user groups relevant to your project and then delve into their specific needs and challenges through a variety of research methods.

For instance, we conduct in-depth interviews to understand the daily user workflows, their interaction with technology, and the pain points they encounter. This helps us tailor eLearning app design to improve its efficiency and accuracy.

Throughout the design process, we iterate based on the feedback gathered from these research activities. We conduct usability testing at various stages, refining our designs to ensure they are highly functional and user-friendly.

How much does an eLearning platform design cost? 

Each product in the domain is unique, so it's hard to set a fixed price for UX design in the education field. The cost depends on the project's size, complexity, length, and team involvement. The cost of LMS design services will vary compared to those for flashcard or quiz applications. To design LMS, designers have to create complex and intuitive user interfaces, ensure robust integration with diverse educational tools and databases, and develop customizable learning paths, interactive content modules, and comprehensive tracking and reporting systems. It requires more effort. 

On the consultation, we can give you a starting estimate, but it may adjust as needs change. You can also use our price calculator to get an approximate estimate on your email. 

What’s the role of AI in the transformation of education?

In the dynamic field of EdTech, two pivotal trends are reshaping the way we approach education: the rise of AI-driven tools and the shift towards personalized learning. 


Functionality of AI-driven tools allows us to tailor educational content to meet individual student needs and learning styles, adapting to each student's pace and preferences. By analyzing performance data, AI provides customized resources and exercises, significantly improving the effectiveness of learning.


Furthermore, AI assists teachers by automating administrative tasks like grading and attendance, freeing up time for more student-focused activities. It also aids in identifying learning gaps and providing insights into student progress, helping educators to intervene effectively.


In terms of accessibility, AI breaks down barriers for students with disabilities through tools like speech-to-text and language translation services, making education more inclusive. 


At Cieden, we delve into understanding these trends, focusing on how they can be harnessed to create more effective, engaging, and accessible educational experiences.

How does Cieden align my EdTech platform with educational standards and scalability?

At Cieden, we recognize the critical balance between adhering to educational standards and achieving scalability. Our seasoned experience in the EdTech field guides our design process, where we meticulously test and adapt to comply with key educational regulations like FERPA, COPPA, and SOPIPA. We ensure your platform excels in user experience, remains compliant, and is geared for future expansion.
