What a journey this has been! I remember that when I signed up for the course, I had no idea about everything that the world of UX involved. I just knew that it was an area where I could develop skills that I already had. The more I advanced, the more I began to be interested and passionate about each of the topics I saw, especially those related to accessibility. I think it is an area in which I see myself working and that motivates me to continue with the courses that follow. I am very grateful that there was always a lot of repetition in different formats (video, readings and tests) to make everything clearer. I am very excited to continue on this path and I thank all the mentors who worked to make this course possible! :)

When I embarked on the journey of learning UX through an online course, little did I know that it would be such a transformative experience. The course materials were rich, interactive, and engaging, providing me with a comprehensive understanding of UX principles and methodologies. The instructors were not only knowledgeable but also incredibly supportive, ensuring that I grasped each concept thoroughly. Moreover, the vibrant online community and the hands-on projects added a practical dimension to my learning, solidifying my understanding of UX design. I am immensely grateful to the Coursera team for curating such an exceptional learning experience, one that has truly enriched my skill set and professional growth.

this is just an amazing course! it exceeded all my expectations.I have already taken other courses on ux, but the course from Google does not compare with anything! it is the best and most up-to-date. I'm really glad I found it. an incredible amount of useful information! I heard great stories from the lecturers and the lecturers themselves are very cool. excellent, up-to-date and real-life portfolio examples - all at the highest level. great job, Google! I liked the part of the course about design sprints and the part about personal websites. it was difficult in the segment about the personal brand, I will definitely return to the study of the fourth week. thank you guys! I'm moving on to the next second year!

This course gave me a thorough understanding of the field of UX (jobs, companies, career advice). I really enjoyed the videos from those working in the field of UX explaining how they landed in the field. Now I have a better understanding of concepts such as universal, inclusive, and equity-focused design. This course gave me a solid foundation for understanding what UX is, how it works, the tools that are used and their advantages. The Readings were quick reads and super informative. I've been working in UX for a few years, but after this course, I feel more knowledgeable about the field. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to gain a thorough understanding of the field to build on for future courses!

The field of User Experience Design has grown rapidly in recent years, and there are now many paths to become involved in the industry. If you've ever been interested in this field, you might be overwhelmed with the amount of information available on the subject. This UX course provides a solid foundation to start your journey. By exploring the different components and methodologies of UX, you'll gain an understanding of the fundamental principles of the field and be equipped to decide if pursuing a career in UX is right for you. Whether you want to become a UX generalist or a specialist, this course will help you determine which avenue to take your studies and shape your overall career goals in User Experience.

The most amazing and interesting about this course is learning directly from the Google professional experts which give me satisfaction that I am learning the right thing in a right direction. I really like the module style the way it is made is very engaging and makes sure that you get information and learning byheart. The pop questions keeps me attentive for the video and flexibility to give test give me test 3 time in 24 hours is a great module feature. The difficult part is everything seems to be repetitive and same at most of the places but again it is part of UX so need to understand properly. The one thing that can be done is taking notes and saving illustrations from reading would be also very helpful.

Great course for people that are getting into the field of UX for the first time. Though the questions in between the videos felt lack luster as they asked for information that the instructor had told me a second ago which sounds to me like I am in 3rd grade, the quizzes also felt lack luster but there is so much they could've done. One more thing is I am not sure whether the terms that were used throughout the course were universal or just used in Google. if not, you will have to do your own research on what a specific term is referred to as in the world that the instructors have used in their videoes. Overall the knowledge is there and the instructors are so nice and easier to understand. Highly recommended!

When I started attending the course, I didn't know what it was. I didn't know for sure until I passed the first week, but gradually I found my true passion. In the first week, there were so many lessons, so I was very worried about whether the trip would end. In the second week, I started to see things that were interesting and slowly became happy. I like it because the discussions are like what I see with friends. Coaches are also loving and desirable. The most difficult is the quiz of last week. I wanted to get full marks, but I did not get more than (80) every time I answered, so I had to answer 3 times with difficulty, and then I got 100 marks. Anyway, for me, it has brought me a lot of happy memories.

I absolutely LOVED the course as it is really well structured and well-guided! It introduces you step-by-step not just to learning 'user experience' but a guide to how to go about it - from building portfolio, personal brand and networking. The activities and assignments are really helpful that helps you to remember the topics and and follow along for building the presence and starting out. All of those steps are really important and it is good to start with those first as you can then only focus on creating later on! I was concerned with some reviews saying that the portfolio should have been a part of a later course, but I disagree. I love how well-structured it is and absolutely fantastic to begin with!

I am delighted with the course! When I just started to study, I was very afraid, doubted that I would be able to take the course at all and I had a big problem - I understand very poorly in English. I promised myself that I would just leave the course if it didn't work out and I would just try to study. But then I passed the test of the first week, then the second and noticed that I already understand quite well. The course is superbly designed! All information is structured, templates and examples are attached. The speakers are very nice people who are pleasant to listen to and learn from them! Thank you so much! With great desire I want to cross over to the next course and go to the end!

Firstly, I'm really excited to be a part of this program. It has been a really fun ride so far. I was able to learn a lot and there were many things that piqued my interest and helped boost my enthusiasm for this field

I really enjoyed learning about the differents fields available in UX and the various roles an entry level designer would have to fulfill. I also really enjoyed learning about User research and how crucial it is to the UX design process.

I didnt find anything diffcult, but I will say that designs sprints and retrospectives aren't the easiest things in the world to understand though.

I'm really happy to have completed the first course and I can't wait to dive into the next one.

As someone completely new to this material, I found the information to be easily digestible, well organized, and exciting to learn. I believe it would be useful to add a feature to allow you to capture notes from readings and an option to exit the small video player when scrolling down on the video pages. Even though I didn't need to read the video transcripts for accessibility reasons, I still found it useful to read them while adding to my handwritten notes and wished that I had the option to exit out of the small video player in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen at certain times. Overall, it was a great introduction, and I am ready to continue on with the program!

The UX Fundamentals course was an enlightening journey into the world of user experience design. It masterfully laid out the basics, making complex concepts accessible and engaging. Each module was well-structured, offering a mix of theory and practical application, which was invaluable for a beginner. The interactive exercises and brief snippets of real-world case studies were particularly effective, allowing for hands-on learning. Instructors were knowledgeable and approachable, providing insightful feedback. This course equipped me with the foundational skills in UX and sparked a deeper interest in the field. Highly recommended for anyone starting their UX journey!

What a great course! I really enjoyed it. The only gripe I have is that in the impostor syndrome section, I would have liked to see more variety in the experiences shared. There was a young man in the beginning who emigrated from the D.R., who was self-taught and made his way up to working at Google. A lot of the portfolio examples were from people who went to really great colleges like SCAD and Carnegie Mellon. Having a little more representation of people who have taken less traditional paths and made it to Google would be uplifting to people in this course, since it seems like everyone who works as a designer at Google went to Carnegie Mellon, Stanford, or SCAD.

Lovely, insightful and concise. Breaking the tutorials into short chunks that ultimately are more effective than a large expanse that can get quite monotonous overtime.

I also like the fact that I can sign in on my laptop and phone at the same time. This way, I am able to minimize data usage (by using my phone for the videos) and using my laptop for the survey, quizzes and tests.

The feature that saves my progress (even to where I stopped in a video) is great. The in-video questions are equally needed, as they serve to ensure that I am making the most of my videos (I have been distracted a few times; this helped bring my mind back).

Overall, the UX is one to die for.

The whole course was so interesting for me; it was so fruitful and I benefited a lot not just as a UX designer in training, but as a human who wants to be the best version of herself. The most exciting part for me was when I started creating my portfolio, creating a personal brand and online presence. For me, It was more than just a course, it's a life changing course. All the activities were fun, and I got to learn a lot of things some of them I had no idea existed, and some others I knew but never understood until I took this course.

I'd like to thank Google from the bottom of my heart, and the amazing team for taking time to create such an amazing course.

Violaa, I had a really great time going through the foundations of UX. From understanding what UX means, to who a UX Designer is and how they think, to types of UX designers and their roles, UX colleagues and roles of entry-level UX designer.

Where a UX desinger can work and who is a USER. I learned about the design thinking phases and importance of equity focused design. Importance of design sprint was among as well as assistive technology(AT), how to overcome different types of bias to mention a few.

The most important take out from course one is how to empathize, and think like the user, thereby placing the user at the core of your everyday design.

Thanks to Coursera and Google for this amazing course.

Every part was developed in a coherent and easy to follow way. Understandable course with clear insights.

It's not just a UX course, but it is UX itself. I found that is actually focused on what the student needs to know. They teach theory, practical cases, stories from real people, and how to boost your professional life.

It took me more than 4 weeks to finish it, but that was because I am the type of person who likes to recap and check details.

I highly recommend this course for all of you - who are checking the review section-.

Hare Krishna and my best wishes to the instructors & students.

It was educational enough. At the very beginning of the course, it seemed to me that it would be a little boring, since I was expecting practical examples and assignments. I thought theory was not for me. But, as it turned out later, I didn’t know much from what I learned in this course, and this information is very useful and informative. This information helped me understand what I really want and can expect from this course and I realized that I can apply this knowledge in my life and work right now. The analysis of the ultimate goal and the collection of information is an integral factor in any successful project.T Thank you so much!

I recommend this course to people who are considering moving to a UX role because it covers all the fundamentals of this profession in a very understandable way. Also, it gives important tools for product owners/ business analysts to take into account during the creation and improvement of IT products, centering our attention on the final user. Thank you for bringing the accessibility and assistive technology topics to the table because sometimes those are topics that are skipped during the Product development life cycle and they are very important if we want to include users with different skills and characteristics to our experience.

Great intro to the field of UX Design. The instructor was very clear, easy to understand and informational. The course is definitely intended to be for people with no working knowledge of UX Design. I like that everything is broken down into bite sized chunks. Even if I only had 30 minutes, I was able to get through a lecture and reading and feel like I was still accomplishing something and pushing forward even during a busy week. Highly recommend for anyone even considering the field of UX Design. You don't have to commit to the full certificate so if you find it isn't for you, no problem. Excited to get started on the second course!

The "Foundations of User Experience (UX) Design" course has been an excellent introduction to the field of UX design. The content is well-structured, making complex concepts easy to understand for beginners. I particularly appreciated the hands-on approach, which allowed me to apply what I learned through practical exercises and real-world examples. The sections on design sprints and user research were especially insightful, providing valuable techniques that I can immediately use in my work. Overall, this course has laid a strong foundation for my journey in UX design, and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in this field.

The user experience course was an excellent starting point in my journey into the world of UX design. It effectively highlighted the significance of user-centric design for both users and businesses, giving me a solid foundation in this field. I gained valuable insights into the different disciplines within UX, the tools commonly used, and the structured approach of design sprints. This knowledge equips me with a clear understanding of the UX landscape and sets the stage for further exploration in upcoming courses, where I look forward to diving deeper into user research and problem-solving to enhance my skills as a UX designer.

What an outstanding learning experience it has been! The novel notion of UX Design is much more clearer than what it was prior to completing the course.

Next, I mosy admit that eventhough, the overall length and breadth of the context seemed never-ending at times, it was well worth the investment. The team of Google experts are second-to-none.

Each and everyone of the presenters brought a measure of energy that is to be envied. I look forward to the second course "Start the UX Desig Process: Empathize, Define, and Ideate" with eagerness and great anticipation!

Thank you all. Perhaps, I shall see you again in the next course.

The course was good. I enjoyed the content and instructor videos. I wished I was better matched with peers though for my reviews, or was able to dialog a bit with them on the reason for their comments or grades. I submitted my project for peer reveiw and it was quite apparent that the native language of the peers who graded me was not English nor were they able to synthesize all of the parts of my project to see how they fit together. I had all of the requirements in the project, but got downgraded by my peers because of their lack of understanding. It will be frustating to continue if I am reviewed by more peers like this.
