Educational platform: Coursera

Although it is usually the least visited page, Page 404 has the potential to provide a pleasant and helpful user experience.

One aspect that should be considered is the design. Since the platform already has an established brand, it may not be necessary to make drastic changes. Therefore, it would be best to stick to the current style.

It has become a common practice to explain why a page may be empty. Therefore, I did not intend to deviate from this norm. However, I decided to add some humor to the message to help users feel less frustrated.

Afterwards, users can click a button that will take them back to the main page. The header at the top of the page was not a random addition - it helps users discover other categories.

To improve page functionality, I designed a search bar and helpful alternatives, such as popular courses.

Thank you for your attention and time:) Feel free to criticize this work as much as possible - criticism reinforces development!

The design challenge was to create an empty state for an app while this is a website, so i would say this partially aligns with the brief.

The page presents a user-friendly approach with a clear error message and a helpful "Go to Home Page" button, guiding users effectively.

The focus on courses somewhat diverts from the empty state's intent.

Motivational aspects are lacking; personalized messages or assistance could enhance the experience. Encouraging users towards specific actions rather than just returning to the homepage would likely boost engagement.

Aesthetically, the design is clean with balanced white space and welcoming illustrations, resonating well with the educational theme.
