The Foundations of UX Design course by Google offers a solid introduction to the world of UX design. The content is well-structured and beginner-friendly, making it accessible for those new to the field. The course covers essential topics such as user research, wireframing, and usability testing comprehensively. The video lectures and interactive exercises are engaging, enhancing the learning experience. However, some learners may find that more advanced topics are lacking, making it best suited for beginners. Overall, a great starting point for anyone interested in UX design.

When I started this course, I had absolutely no real knowledge of UX. Now, I feel ready to start making work and break into the industry at full force. Toward the end of the course, they talk about how to overcome imposter syndrome, and I've found that to be especially helpful as that's something I realize I've been suffering with since high school. Thanks to this course, I've finally completed the decade-long task of creating a professional online portfolio, and getting started with social media platforms and online design communities. I'm extremely excited to move forward!

The course offers a solid foundation in both UI and UX principles, with a strong emphasis on user-centered design. The hands-on projects were invaluable in building my portfolio, and the instructor’s real-world experience was evident throughout the course. However, I wish there had been more support on job placements post-certification. Overall, it’s a great course for beginners looking to break into the industry, though some more advanced designers might find it a bit basic." If you're interested in a specific course, I can help you review that as well! Just let me know.

Before taking this course, I have already learn about UX, UI, and product design fundamentals. After taking this course, it sharpened my knowledge in this field far to the next level. I absolutely love this course, it gives you complete insight in being a UX designer and what's going on with that role in the industry nowadays. More than that, we were also taught about how to build personal branding as a designer on all across social media platforms, even our own website/portfolio. Best UX design I've ever taken so far! Can't wait to enroll to the next course! Thank you.

I found this course really engaging. The short videos really held my attention and the activities and tests were well timed and made for good breaks in the dialogue to help cement themes and points for learning.

Michael was a great host and you could see him really relax into the teaching style as time went on. Interviews with others in a varoety of roles gave different perspectives and being able to view a variety of designers work allowed the learner to experience different styles and methods of working along with some really interesting routes taken into the field.

Je tiens à remercier Coursera pour m'avoir offert l'opportunité de suivre le certificat en principes de conception de l'expérience utilisateur (UX). Grâce à ce programme, j'ai pu approfondir mes connaissances et compétences en UX, couvrant des aspects essentiels comme la recherche utilisateur et la création d'interfaces intuitives. Ce certificat est un atout précieux dans mon parcours professionnel, et je suis reconnaissant(e) pour l'excellence de la formation et des ressources fournies. Merci à Coursera pour ce soutien dans mon développement professionnel !

Great introduction to UX Design and research! A nice mix of short videos, readings, tasks and quizzes that are able to make a lot of information that you're taking in a lot more manageable and enjoyable. The instructors explain everything super clearly and in a a very understandable way so it's perfect for people who aren't familiar with the field. A lot of emphasis is placed on accessibility, equitable design and personal biases, which I think is really great, as it establishes these habits early on in your UX journey rather than them being an afterthought.

I am filled with immense gratitude and admiration for the tireless efforts of the countless individuals who contributed to the creation of this exceptional course. Their dedication, passion, and expertise have undoubtedly played a crucial role in shaping the content and structure of this program. Words alone cannot express the depth of my appreciation for their hard work and dedication. I feel truly fortunate to have been a part of such a remarkable learning experience and will cherish the knowledge and insights gained from this course for years to come.

I really enjoyed part one of this seven-part course. There were sections that I'd already experienced in my current job, however, it was great to go through them again and use the examples in other scenarios.

The course as a whole was incredibly user-friendly, as expected, and you can see that a lot of time and effort has been put into creating this course.

Meeting various members of the team and understanding how they become to be a UX designer was very interesting and gives you more confidence that you really can learn the skills to succeed in this field.

It was a very interesting experience.

Cool videos and speakers who convey information concisely, clearly and excitingly. Textual information complements the video in more depth and comprehensively anchors the topics.

Tests for self-control help to determine how well the material has been learned. And the assessment texts let you understand your progress and mastery of the material.

Useful, interesting and high-quality course. Thanks for the opportunity to go through it, and I recommend it to anyone who is interested in the topic of user experience design.

I liked participating in this course. Even though I already had some brief experience as a UX designer, I learned many new things in this program, especially technical aspects that have helped me become a better professional in the field. Now, I will have more confidence in carrying out my projects, as I've gained a solid foundation in UX design principles. I believe that gradually, I am moving away from being an amateur and becoming a professional. I hope the upcoming courses are as good and efficient as this one; I am looking forward to taking them.

This is an excellent course on introducing UX design. I think that it covered a wide variety of relevant material at an appropriate pace. The ony thing I would criticize is the apparent restructuring of the last week of the course material. Earlier weeks talk quite a lot about building your professional web presence, but the final week of the course only covered UX research. It just felt disjointed like they reordered things without smoothing it out. However, that is a tiny thing and doesn't detract from the overall usefulness of the course.

As an almost complete beginner, I found there were some things I'd already researched, but most was new to me. All of it was useful!

I love how I got to create something real as well (the beginnings of a UX design portfolio).

I'd recommend doing all the optional sections and reading what other participants say.

I nearly knocked one star off because I found it hard to navigate to comments I made or responded to (to see if I'd had any feedback). So some of the community aspect was lost which is a shame, but maybe it's just me not 'getting it'!

The Foundations of User Experience (UX) Design course has been very revitalizing and motivating. Despite having been working in the sector for three years, it has helped me to delve into concepts, new approaches and above all a completely new perspective on how to approach projects. I think it's a course that empathizes with its students, and the diversity of ways to deliver the content is ideal. Also, I love how they provide us with a lot of study and reflection material. It helped me deepen my research, debate, and self-criticism skills.

So appreciative for this course and all the information that it has provided! There is an abundance of information but it is provided simply and effortlessly for anyone to be able to understand, process and apply it. Thank you so much for all of the hard work and providing so many with the opportunity to learn these skills to better our lives and to learn to help others. These skills transfer over into life in order to care for those we come into contact with and put their needs before our own! Awesome job Google and Coursera! Thank you!

While I was thinking about how to move from graphic design to UX design, my teacher suggested this course to me. And I started taking the course. I made the payment without thinking and studied diligently. I spent more than 1 month and got the knowledge I had never received from anyone in my life from this foundation course. My passion for UX design grew even more. I realized that UX is not just about drawing shapes and writing something, but also an area where people can be comfortable on every front. A big thanks to the Google UX team.

Super Happy with the course!! I am enrolled in a number of certificate courses across different platforms but google courses always remain my favourite...ALWAYS!! whether it is the digital marketing course that I completed just a few days ago or this ui/ux course...the courses are so easy to follow and the instructors are always so calm and the way they speak is so elegant , I always get to learn so much from the way they present themselves. Plus all the quizzes appearing out of the blue moon during the videos help me to remain focused.

Its a really great journey i must say because when i just start my journey through this course i might don't know that i get to know a lot of things in future. but when i just covering each and every topic , we do exercises , quizzes , share our experience its really great and yes i must say you have to be consistent if you love to have something in your life too well this is a course but who knows that this course will change your life and you were be there where you just thought to be. A lot of learning in this course. THANK YOU ALL .

Google has certainly raised the bar on course. I've enrolled in a few courses I found interesting and possibly helpful to my career but found them lacking in the depth of knowledge they provide or the instructor was difficult to understand.

I was starting to regret my 1 year commitment but Google's course has certainly reverted my regret. I've only completed course 1 which in it self was 4 weeks but the knowledge was relevant and easy to understand. I honestly enjoyed this course and would recommend anyone curious about ux to start here.

This first course has been very informative and interactive. I enjoy how there are explanations given as to why a question was incorrect and correct. I completely enjoyed the more in depth pages after a video that was more descriptive on the films information. The course was amazing and a great experience so far. I'm also grateful for the experienced UX designer videos. They help gain insight for how many individuals of different backgrounds and experience were able to make it to where they are now. It's very encouraging and uplifting!

This course was a great introduction to the field of UX Design. I found the content very well organized and I really appreciated having the opportunity to consume the material in different formats (video lectures + written articles). The course has a very academic feel, with well-organized content and integrated study tools like pop quizzes, written assignments and study reminders. It also has a very approachable teaching method, with inspiring talks from active professionals who discuss their career journeys throughout the course.

At the beginning of the course, I was not even sure what UX is. The course covers the very basics of UX, it would be perfect for beginners like me.

One thing I would suggest, some tests were super easy because it covered what we just learned on the previous page. I would rather prefer to flip it backwards, first test, so students can try to think what is logical and how they would approach the task, then text or a video. This way I believe students can better understand then just to memorize and quickly digest given information.

I was a designer with decades of design experience but no formal UX design experience or training.

Completing this course gave me the knowledge I needed in UX and the certification was instrumental in giving my new employers enough confidence in my abilities to hire me.

It took 6 months of job searching in a highly competitive job market to get my new role but it's a fantastic position with a great salary and creative freedom.

I highly recommend taking this course and putting in the work if you're looking for a career in design.

The most fascinating aspect of the course for me was delving into the different methodologies of UX research. Learning about various research techniques, such as user interviews, surveys, and usability testing, opened my eyes to the depth and intricacies of gathering insights from users. Understanding how to effectively gather and analyze user feedback to inform design decisions was incredibly valuable. Exploring the different research methodologies sparked my curiosity and motivated me to apply them in real-world scenarios.

This is the best Ux fundamental course I've ever seen. Google team has done a great job by organizing the syllabus serially. My journey through this course was mind-blowing. I loved participating in the quizzes to test myself and the experience was phenomenal. I would love to thank Google and Coursera for giving us this tremendous opportunity to learn Ux design for free and also for the top-class teachers who are masters in their own fields.

I would also love to have the certificates for every single course that I'll finish.
