Abstract
This project explores the creation of a Spanish learning platform intended to facilitate self-directed learning in the classroom. Aimed at bridging language gaps and increasing exposure to Spanish inside and outside the classroom, the website was developed using the school’s existing curriculum as a foundation. By designing a set of interactive and child-friendly subsites and utilizing tools such as Canva, the project highlights the practical steps and challenges involved in building a user-centered educational resource. Concluding that it is achievable with thoughtful planning, sustained effort, and a strong focus on age-appropriate design.
