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!...

The course has addtional good resources and reading material, which was half of the learning content, otherwise it would have been too basic.

Excelente, porém acredito que poderiam ser mostrado mais exemplos práticos de todos os Steps. O curso poderia ser um pouco mais ilustrativo.

walks you through the basics, a bit slow but if you are like me who is completely new to UXD, then this is a great little course to do.

Great Intro course that goes over most the general concepts of UX design. It's a good starting place to get your feet wet in this field.

Clear introduction to the process but the occasional typos were really rather glaring and took away from the credibility of the course.

The contents are great, but the presentation seems to be somehow monotonous, which makes it difficult to keep focusing on the subject.

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

As it states an Introductory Course, that touches base on few topic that might help you deciding and planning your course of action.

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 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.

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

Clear and structures video lectures. Would have preferred the CORRECT answers to the quiz are shown after user has submitted.
