Design for StudyBuddy with these educational technology constraints:
Scenario A: The Multitasking Scholar Design screens for Elena who switches between taking notes during video lectures, participating in group chats, and creating flashcards - all while walking between classes with one hand free.
Scenario B: The Visual Learner Create screens for Marcus who learns best through diagrams and visual connections. Show how he can create mind maps, annotate images, and organize visual study materials on a mobile screen.
Scenario C: The Time-Pressed Perfectionist Design for Aisha who has 15-minute study sessions between activities. Her screens need to support quick content creation and seamless pickup where she left off.
