About the Course

Build Wireframes and Low-Fidelity Prototypes is the third course in a certificate program that will equip you with the skills you need to apply to entry-level jobs in user experience (UX) design. In this course, you’ll continue to design a mobile app for your professional UX portfolio. You’ll start by creating storyboards and getting familiar with the basics of drawing. Then, you'll create paper wireframes and digital wireframes using the design tool Figma. You’ll also create a paper prototype and a digital low-fidelity prototype in Figma. Current UX designers and researchers at Google will serve as your instructors, and you will complete hands-on activities that simulate real-world UX design scenarios. Learners who complete the seven courses in this certificate program should be equipped to apply for entry-level jobs as UX designers. By the end of this course, you will be able to: - Develop a goal statement. - Create two types of storyboards: big picture and close-up. - Understand the difference between low-fidelity and high-fidelity design. - Apply the basics of drawing. - Apply the principles of information architecture to organize a mobile app. - Create paper wireframes for a mobile app design. - Develop digital wireframes in the design tool Figma. - Build a paper prototype to add interactivity to designs. - Design a low-fidelity prototype in Figma. - Recognize implicit bias and deceptive patterns in design. - Continue to design a mobile app to include in your professional portfolio. To be successful in this course, you should complete the previous two courses in this certificate program, or have an ability to conduct user research to inform the creation of empathy maps, personas, user stories, user journey maps, problem statements, and value propositions. You will also need paper and a pen or pencil....

Great course with great instructors. I really enjoyed learning about wireframes and lo-fi prototypes. Figma is a great program and it was nice to have personal instructors teaching you how to use it.

I learned a lot from this part of the Google UX Design Certificate program the most, namely because I finally can grasp how Figma works, compared to courses on Udemy where the instructor overexplains every minutiae of every function and button. Creating the digital wireframes and prototypes has been a tiring yet fulfilling achievement!

The video tutorials were easy to understand and fun to watch. This course introduced me to a new software of Design Field i.e Figma. Starting from sketches to moving onto figma to build wireframes and lofi prototypes felt great. The examples very very relatable and realistic that helped me to better understand the process of design.

The course is great! I'm not new to Figma, so it wasn't very challenging for me to create digital wireframes and prototypes in this app. At the same time, paper wireframes and storyboards were really good training. I like the studying process very much, and the instructors are pleasant people. Thanks a lot, Google and Coursera!

It was very easy to follow. You definitely have to focus and do the work. You may have to watch a video a couple times and you can use Slack to join the community and get help from other members. I received a welcome email right away asking if there were any questions I needed. I wish I would of have taken it sooner!

It was a great experience. In that course I'ce learned a lot practical things, and the theory provided is very important in Ux design process. It was the first time I've done paper and digital wireframing, paper and digital lo-fi prototyping. I really deeped my consious in Figma and the options that are available.

I learned a lot with this course and although I am still not convinced that the peer-review system is really helping everyone understand what they are doing well or not, I understand its use because of the sheer number of students. I wish that there was more content in this course about basic figma features.

I really love being able to learn Adobe Figma :) Karen, the course teacher, is very thorough and relatable. It's been a fun course. This particular course has taken me the longest to complete thus far because it's a lot of new information and skills to learn but in the end I feel very proud of my progress.

I've learned Low-fi wireframing and prototyping. It was the best course in which we actually start designing our project and I enjoy the learning and the process of making assignments a lot. Thanks Coursera for this opportunity and Google for giving us the best knowledge through your Professional People.

I have learned so much more in detail. This course was really amazing because this is where we will learn so much in detail and this where UX designer comes into picture. So everyone new to this course I suggest you go in continuation from foundations of UX design course instead of starting thiss first.

The first stages of bringing things together from the other courses start here. The research and intentions come together in paper wireframes and then not too long after the digital wireframe process starts. Great build up and flow moving through the courses, excited to keep this forward momentum!

Absolutely loved this course. It was a great experience. The speakers were good designers who shared their vision from beginning to end. I do it just for a few weeks, and I am happy to receive my certificate. I will recommend those who want to learn UI UX Design from scratch. Thank you, Googlers!

A wonderful course especially concerning Figma! While I do think that some of the practice assignments needed to be actual end of the week assignments it was still a wonderful experience. I am in awe at the difference in regards to courses concerning coursera vs. udemy. Almost halfway done!

Your course was the best by far, I found your presentation and explanation skills to be crystal clear and easy to understand, engaging, and also inclusive and friendly. Thank you so much for being my teacher, I hope to meet more people as friendly and understanding as you in the future!

I loved course 3 the best because it gave clear insight on what we've completed. The biggest issue I had in all of the courses so far was uploading my work. The it took some digging around and asking questions but thankfully, everyone is helpful - and most of us had the same issue.

Greatly informative and easy to follow course! I had a great experience doing this course. I enjoyed working in figma, nicely and understandable videos to follow on how to make prototypes. Something I thought would be complicated turned out to be very easy, intuitive and enjoyable.

Clear and easy-to-understand course that teaches several useful tools. It was great to get multiple opportunities to try out Figma and explore both wireframing and prototyping. It was helpful to have the Figma videos as well as the Figma tutorial from the Google instructor.

It was an amazing experience with all the exercises and content of the course, we learned a lot from here and especially the instructor Ms. Keran teaches it very well.

I would highly recommend this course to our co-learner to learn and complete all the given exercises.

thanks

Great course introducing wireframes and prototyping! Also, if you're new to Figma, this course will be a good introduction to that program. I liked how Karen focused on drawing wireframes and prototypes on paper before moving to digital wireframing. Great course - 5 stars!

A truely awesome course! I learned a lot from this. From Wireframes to Prototypes, everything is clearly described and easily understandable. But I hoped for a more advance knowledge, overall it gives you tip of the iceberg and resources to find the rest of the iceberg.

Overall, great course. Sometimes it's unclear whether you're working on the scenario created for the class, or the portfolio project, but with this many participants it's not as if you can easily field all those questions. The supplemental material is worth bookmarking.

Course has been structured very well. Good amout of time could be spent on activities. Learning new terms and procedures of UX design and updating onself with current trends of UX. Learning to design the digital prototype with insights from the former user interview.

This third part of the certificate was very easy to understand and to practice, the instructor was clear all the time and so the explanations. I only think it was too shoort compared to the other coursers but its all on us to keep practicing as much as we can.
