Course Builder

At Sber's educational platform Edutoria, I was responsible for the product design of the builder. This tool allowed authors to create educational courses and publish them on the platform.

Problem

We launched with a raw MVP. The course builder — the key tool for authors — turned out to be inconvenient and limited:

  1. The interface was overloaded and hard to read intuitively
  2. As a result, creating courses on the platform took too much time
  3. The basic set of blocks and features was insufficient for real educational scenarios

Solution

The solution was a complete redesign and evolution of the tool. In the process, I focused on

  1. Simplifying the interface. Removed overloaded elements to make the course creation process faster
  2. Optimizing flows. Reduced the number of steps to publication, built more logical user paths
  3. Designing new widgets — created intuitive blocks for features added by the product team

Builder Interface

The design was based on the Edit-in-Place principle. Users can edit elements directly on the page

Edit-in-place

The principle is supported not only in the builder itself but also in the course administration panel

For example, an author can also rename a lesson or section title, and change its order within a single page

New Widgets

The basic blocks were not enough to cover key course scenarios. The product management team conducted interviews and compiled a list of the most in-demand features.

My task was to turn this list into convenient widgets. Despite the extensive functionality, I made them simple: editing was intuitive and without unnecessary steps.
