About the Course

The focus of this course is to introduce the learner to User Experience (UX) Design User Experience design is design that is user centered. The goal is to design artifacts that allow the users to meet their needs in the most effective efficient and satisfying manner. The course introduces the novice to a cycle of discovery and evaluation and a set of techniques that meet the user's needs. This course is geared toward the novice. It is for learners that have heard about "user experience" or "user interface" design but don't really know much about these disciplines. The course mantra is that “Design is a systematic and data driven process.” Design is systematic because it is based on a set of techniques and also on a cycle of discovery. In this course the learner is introduced to the four step user interface design cycle. Along the way learners are exposed to a set of techniques to gather information about a) what the user needs b)how to design and model interfaces based on these and then how to evaluate the design to ascertain that the user's goals are met. These techniques are tools that are used in a standardized manner and give us the data we use in our design. This means that anyone (regardless of their current training) that is willing to learn these techniques and follow the proposed cycle can be a UX designer!...

Excellent as an introductory course, with concepts explained clearly and succinctly. A few more case studies or practical examples may have been beneficial, but overall this course is excellent.

As a novice I've found this course to be clear and concise. To put it in course terms, it's useful and usable. I would have liked it to go into a little bit more detail, hence the 4 stars and not 5.

It was very well designed and organized but some parts were superficial like module 3. I think it needs more details and explanation.

Great course to start into UX Design fields. But still need some practical application before I can move to the next level courses.

For someone who has no prior knowledge in User Experience, this course lets you dip your feet before you deep dive into the ocean.

It´s very basic. It could have some activities in order to consolidate the knowledge. Anyway, it is a very nice begginers course.

It is very useful if you are new for UED. It will help you building up framework, and tell you some fundation defination of UED.

Good overview of UX basics, but, interestling, the interface is fairly clunky and makes it a bit more challenging than needed.

Great for a more extensive introductory course to UX Design but some of the reading materials are out of date or inaccessible.

Had some technical issues (which is a bit ironic for a UX course) but otherwise felt I learned a great overview of the basics.

good for extreme beginners. Does not always relate to real world business concerns, but great as a theoretical background.

Not bad, as a refreshment for the terms and basic knowledge for user research. But lack of practice and not update enough.

The content is very good, but the interaction and doubts posted in the fórum are forgotten by the creators of the course.

More detailing on how to design alternatives would have been useful. I felt like I did not learn much about that aspect.

It is a fundamental class, quite easy to understand for people who don't have any background about user experience.
