Education-India: when a student portal acquires teachers

A saved education-portal case connects campus information, exam alerts and the later decision to serve another audience.

The audience named in the case

The Education-India portfolio page describes an education portal for high-school and college students in India. Its listed features include campusBeat, exam alerts, quick guides and puzzles. The historical page attributes the design direction and team leadership to Anjali Arora. These are claims made in that portfolio, not a current description of an operating service.

A new audience is a structural change

The case says feedback led to the introduction of a teacher portal under the same umbrella. That detail matters more than its unmeasured claims of growing traffic. Teachers are not simply students with a different label: a resource organised around student discovery may need another route for professional preparation. The record does not provide enough screens or task data to show how that distinction was implemented. It does identify the point where an initial audience definition became insufficient.

What this record preserves

The old query parameter selected a portfolio menu; it is not a second educational product. This new note preserves the particular project, features and stated audience change. It links to the broader website case collection without reproducing an obsolete portal or implying that its former team maintains this edition.
