Student-Friendly Deals and Smart Budgeting

01
Apply with your school email to access powerful collaboration features at no cost, including shared libraries and FigJam for workshops. Many classes now standardize on Figma, making group work seamless. If you qualify, verify today and invite classmates to co‑create in real time.
02
Miro offers an education plan with robust templates, while FigJam integrates beautifully with Figma projects. Use sticky notes, timers, and voting to run remote critiques that feel lively. Share your favorite templates and we’ll compile a student‑tested board gallery for the community.
03
Explore perks that include design‑friendly tools, domain credits, and hosting benefits for launching portfolios and prototypes. Even small credits remove costly blockers for online students. Tell us how you’ve used the pack to ship a project, and inspire peers to publish confidently.

Remote Research That Actually Works

Export tasks directly from your Figma prototype into Maze or Lyssna, add success criteria, and capture heatmaps, misclicks, and completion times. Start small, target real questions, and stop guessing. Post your first test plan, and we’ll suggest improvements that clarify outcomes.

Remote Research That Actually Works

Use Typeform or Google Forms to collect targeted feedback, and keep questions short to avoid fatigue. Pilot with three classmates before sending widely. When responses arrive, tag quotes by theme in Notion for faster synthesis. Ask for a survey critique before you launch.

Collaborating Across Time Zones

Facilitate energizing brainstorms with Miro or FigJam using timers, voting, and frames. Set clear goals, give quiet thinking time, then converge decisively. Save your board as a workshop artifact for your portfolio. Tell us which warm‑ups help remote teams feel safe and creative.

Collaborating Across Time Zones

Create tokens, components, and variants in Figma libraries, and document usage in Zeroheight or Notion. Students gain professional habits fast by naming consistently and writing guidelines. Drop a screenshot of your component library, and we’ll feature well‑organized examples next week.

Learn, Practice, and Grow

Courses that respect your schedule

Explore Coursera specializations, Interaction Design Foundation paths, or focused Udemy workshops. Combine theory with weekly mini‑projects to retain more. Track progress in Notion with goals and reflections. Share one course that genuinely improved your craft so others enroll wisely.

Communities that answer fast

Join Designer Hangout, r/userexperience, and Discord study groups for critique and accountability. Ask specific, respectful questions and return the favor by reviewing others’ work. Introduce yourself below, and we’ll help you find a study buddy in a similar time zone.

Reading that sharpens instincts

Add Nielsen Norman Group articles to your weekly routine, read Don Norman’s classic, and revisit “Don’t Make Me Think.” Summarize each piece in three actionable notes. Post one insight that changed your approach to navigation or content hierarchy. Small reflections unlock lasting growth.
Tell the story: problem, constraints, research, options considered, decisions, outcomes, and honest next steps. Include scrappy artifacts like sketches and sticky notes. Invite comments on clarity and flow. What surprised you most during the project? Those moments humanize your work.

Portfolio, Case Studies, and Storytelling

Use Notion, GitHub Pages, or Webflow’s visual builder to publish clean, responsive portfolios. Start with one strong case study, then expand thoughtfully. Ask a peer to test your site on mobile. Drop links below, and we’ll share a checklist for visual polish.

Portfolio, Case Studies, and Storytelling

Workflow, Focus, and Feedback Loops

Use timeboxing and Kanban boards in Notion or Trello to define weekly goals, deliverables, and review points. Batch similar tasks to reduce context switching. Share a screenshot of your board, and we’ll provide quick suggestions to improve flow and accountability.
