This website began as an exploration of design and user experience (UX), focusing on how we can improve access to information and broaden our understanding. The core question guiding this vision is: how can a quality user experience enhance our learning process?
In classrooms worldwide, educators have long utilized practical tools—such as maps, rulers, and laboratories—to help both children and adults grasp complex concepts. Similarly, you’ll find resources like flashcards at newsstands for learning science, along with online encyclopedias, calculators, and conversion tools. However, I believe many existing solutions could benefit from better design and usability.
With the rise of AI, while obtaining answers has become easier, the reliability of those answers can often fall short compared to well-researched, human-reviewed sources.
As I’m not a scientist myself, I’ve played it safe by focusing on providing basic information first. I hope to collaborate in the near future with scientists and educators to verify and expand our resources and tools. If you’d like to collaborate, please contact me at contact@noteref.com.
