We love questions, almost as much as we love providing answers. Here are a few samplings of what we’re typically asked, along with our responses:
As the internet has grown and become pervasive in our lives, the world has gotten smaller. More and more, as consumers, we can share our experiences. For a company, great experiences can be a competitive advantage. They can keep your customers loyal and turn them into your biggest cheerleaders. On the flip side, terrible experiences can stop you in your tracks very quickly. No one wants to be that company being talked about for all the wrong reasons.
Building great user experiences requires listening and empathy. In this course you’ll learn the tools and techniques to make your products delightful for users.
This course is an introduction to User Experience with a focus on Information Architecture. Students create a complete UX brief, from ideation to annotated wireframes that could be handed off to a developer to be built. They will also learn to conduct the research necessary and create all the supporting documentation required to defend their design decisions. There is a large focus on how to dissect and analyze common design patterns.
The majority of students are graphic and print designers looking to transition their skills into digital, or product managers looking to improve their design skills. Other students often include engineers who want to learn how to make their websites more usable and entrepreneurs looking to build out the user experience for their idea.
