Ozobot ClassroomBrand System for a Learning Platform
800+ free lessons rebuilt around getting a teacher from searching to teaching as fast as possible.
01The Problem
Ozobot Classroom is the free resource library for every Ozobot robot, with 800+ lessons and activities, each one with a lesson guide and activity sheets for teachers, and about 100 with video instructions. The library had outgrown the way people found things in it, and the lessons are a big part of what a school is buying, so a lesson a teacher can't find is one that never gets taught.
02Role & Scope
I led a complete overhaul of Ozobot Classroom, from the dashboard and lesson library to search, filters, lesson pages, the Lesson Creator, and the Pacing Guides, Educator Training, and Help pages, across mobile, tablet, and desktop. I worked with our VPs of Marketing and Education, a UX/UI designer, and a developer.

03Discovery
Teachers came to the library in two ways. Some knew exactly which lesson they needed, others only knew their grade level and subject and were looking for ideas. With 800+ lessons and no clear organization, neither group was well served.
04The Idea
Get a teacher from searching to teaching as fast as possible: filters for the teachers who know what they want, featured groupings for the ones who are browsing, and recommendations on every lesson page so one good find leads to the next.
05Design
Finding the Right Lesson, Fast
With 800+ lessons, finding a specific one is hard when the content isn't organized, so the new design lets teachers filter by robot, coding method, grade level, subject, product, and more. For teachers who don't know exactly what they're looking for, featured lesson groupings make it easy to scan through a lot of lessons quickly, and every lesson page suggests similar and recommended lessons, so one good find leads to the next.
06In the Wild

07Impact
- 200+Lessons Added Since I Joined Ozobot
- 40+Of Them With Lesson Videos
- 2,000+New Educator Accounts Per Month in 2023–24
Since the relaunch, the library has kept growing, and every new lesson lands in a system built to help teachers find it.
08Reflection
The lessons never needed fixing, they were already there, teachers just couldn't find them. So most of this redesign was about getting out of the way, letting a teacher with ten minutes before class land on the right lesson with the guide, the activity sheets, and often a video all in one place. Eight hundred lessons is a lot of good work, and it's worth a lot more when people can actually find it. The homepage still needs work, though. It could do a better job of showing new teachers where to start, which intro lessons to try first, and how to get going with block‑based coding.
