About the Course

In this course, you will learn how to design technologies that bring people joy, rather than frustration. You'll learn several techniques for rapidly prototyping (such as Wizard of Oz Prototyping) and evaluating multiple interface alternatives -- and why rapid prototyping and comparative evaluation are essential to excellent interaction design. You'll learn how to conduct fieldwork with people to help you get design ideas. How to make paper prototypes and low-fidelity mock-ups that are interactive -- and how to use these designs to get feedback from other stakeholders like your teammates, clients, and users. Armed with these design-thinking strategies, you’ll be able to do more creative human-centered design in any domain. This is the first course offered in the interaction design specialization series.

I just loved this lesson! Lots of things to explore. A lot of hands-on experience. I am very pleased with the amount of theory and study that I have.

I wish to thank UC San Diego & Scott Klemmer

This course opened my eyes to the foundational basis of design as a problem solving tool primarily. Can't wait to apply all I have learned and make world class designs that make the world better!

Achei fraco. Os vídeos são claramente desatualizados e o professor é meio perdido. Os conteúdos precisam urgentemente serem atualizados assim como as vídeos aulas. Pelo valor pago, achei ultrapassado!

The course feels dated and the assignments are confusing when paried with the video content. The first peer review assignment is after a video that is not related to the assignment.

A bit difficult to understand the language for non native speaker. Nearly impossible to complete works.

Buenos contenidos. Un tanto lento y costoso de seguir.

This course requires fellow students to review our assignments. If no one reviews, the course will not be completed. This is very annoying. The completion status is determined by other students. Coursera must fix this system. Course ini mengharuskan teman sesama student mereview tugas kita. jika tidak ada yang mereview maka course ini tidak akan selesai. ini sangat menyebalkan. status selesai ditentukan student lain. coursera harus memperbaiki sistem ini.

Зачем писать про русскоязычную версию, если для русскоязычного пользователя не сделан даже необходимый для обучения минимум? Русские субтитры не соответствуют англоязычному тексту: перевод неточный; субтитры рассинхронизированы со звуком и действием на экране; материал обрезан примерно на 30% (перевод под видео полный; в субтитрах по какой-то причине — нет).

Все упражнения — на языке оригинала. Как их выполнять — непонятно.

Стыдно брать деньги за такое!

too much irritating course. please make changes in your course people are leaving this course in 2nd week. make your assignments smaller. we are learning things seating at the office. we have work also. don't make things complicated for students. and make your course for industry-level not only for the syllabus covering purpose, that's it!

Extremely poor course with very (very) old content. You'll get scrappy videos that talk about websites that are 10+ years old. If you're at all interested in UX, please don't waste your money on this. You'll learn more from 15 minutes on YouTube.

This course doesn't worth the price. It just split a semester long course into eight chapters.
