G7 App Design

Grade 7 Designers were tasked with researching the 2025 Sustainable Development Report to find indicators within the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) that were either stagnating or decreasing in Vietnam. After learning JavaScript programming through code.org, they chose an SDG based on their interests, and selected a target audience based on empathy map personas. Students then developed an app to help their target audience better understand the SDG indicator, offer practical advice by sharing the Good Life Goals, and inspire positive action through a School AI engineered prompt.

Their Design specifications were to create an app which..

• is easy to navigate and works well
• includes sourced SDG data and information
• has a 3 question quiz that tests the user on the information they learned
• includes aesthetics such as fonts, colors that are appealing to their chosen target audience
• embeds a call to action screen that shares practical examples from the Good Life Goals as well as a School AI prompt to enable the user to make a positive impact
• has information that is easy to read and understand
