User Experience

You are starting a challenging but rewarding journey! Take 5 minutes to read how to get help with projects and content.

In this lesson, we'll introduce your instructor, give a brief overview of the course, and look ahead to what you'll be building for your final project.

In this lesson, we'll look at fundamental UX concepts, including basic design principles, how to evaluate usability, and how to think like a UX designer.

Research is an essential part of UX design. In this lesson, you'll learn how to plan a UX research study, how to conduct a semi-structured interview, and how to ask effective questions on a survey.

Humans are complex creatures. In this lesson, we'll look deeper into how to take psychology into consideration when we make design decisions.

In this project you will conduct an entire UX Research study from start to finish that will result in generating a report and integrating that research into a sketch of the design.

In this lesson, we'll introduce your instructor, give a brief overview of the course, and look ahead to what you'll be building for your final project.

Let's look at how to explore product opportunities collaboratively—while reducing our risks and ensuring our team is aligned throughout an ambiguous design process.

The best products are informed by user needs. Let's look at how we can use research to find those needs—and uncover high-value product features that we can target in our designs.

Great products don't re-invent the wheel; they expand on design patterns that users are already comfortable with. In this lesson, we'll explore some fundamental UI principles for digital products.

It's expensive to engineer and implement solutions in code. In this lesson, we'll practice the hard skill of building an interactive prototype that feels like a real piece of software.

Even the best looking designs may have unexpected problems. You'll learn hard skills to take your designs into the wild to identify issues early.

In this project, you'll demonstrate a grasp on the design process from customer understanding through to lo-fi prototyping.

In this lesson, we'll introduce your instructor, give a brief overview of the course, and look ahead to what you'll be building for your final project.

Get into UI basics, UI vs UX, basic design principles, and the role typography, design systems and style guides play for a UX Designer.

Learn about levels of fidelity in design, using a tool called Figma to build out a high-fidelity design of your own. Then, add interactivity by creating a clickable prototype!

Build on the digital design you made for the mobile or web application in Course 2 to create a High-Fidelity Mockup, and then implement it in a clickable prototype.

Engineering handoff is a key part of a UX Designer’s role, yet often overlooked by those new to the field. Learn about the deliverables for handoff and how best to collaborate with your team!

Use KPI’s to improve your design, and learn how analytics and testing can be used for data-based improvements.

Take the clickable prototype you created in your midterm and improve the accessibility of your design, iterate on your design based on Data & KPIs, and hand-off to engineering.
