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.

The UX/UI course with Google provided a wonderful learning experience, offering valuable insights into UX design and its processes. I gained a comprehensive understanding of design principles, frameworks, sprints, and research. It was an incredible journey that sparked my passion and deepened my knowledge. I enjoyed every aspect of the course, learning from industry experts and applying the concepts to real-world scenarios. I am excited to continue building upon this foundation and enhancing my UX/UI design skills further.

I loved everything about this course. I have taken other courses related to UX and I have also done some team projects but this foundational course still had a lot new that I could learn. It was so detailed but yet so specific. It gave me a roadmap on how I can do better and polish everything that I am doing and already know. It is helping us learn all the skills that we'll be needing in our journey to be great problem solvers.
Very excited to see what's next and learn a whole lot of new stuff. Google is the best, always!

This course is really gret! And I like the way this course is built — having lessons in both forms for visual and audio learners. But there was one more problem as well - sometimes, information marked as different topics and provided in video and reading form was completely the same. The only thing i would like to mention is that spending a WEEK for a design sprints was a bit borring and seems like something a bit unneded for an entry level designer. Also, I expected to get a bit more foundations about design especially.

Such a great course! Before signing up for this, I had zero idea of what a UX designer was or even what user experience was. This gave me so much information without it feeling overwhelming. You will not get bored in this course, as it's very engaging. I love the fact that i can read along with the words, instead of just watching the person. I have ADHD and that definetly helps me keep my focus on what teh person was saying. Thank you so much for making these courses available to non-college educated people like myself.

A thorough introduction to UX. Google does a great job in leading beginners in the field and prepping them mentally for what it is like in the actual field. I love how everything is in my own pace and I won't be stressed about handing in things in a deadline as I balance the study with a full time job. The combination of videos, readings, task and quiz is a great learning method for someone like me who gets bored with the same learning style. Thank you Google and I look forward to learning more in the next course!

This course is a great foundational course. It is so well put togther. it's easy to understand and is the right stepping stone to get into the knowledge of UX. I love how the tutors where changed from time to time, i loved how enthusiastic they were in their communication, they made the lessons sound great and it was obvious they enjoyed talking about UX. It was always great to have ohter UX professionals share from their personal expereince in the course of the program. Basically, I enjoyed the course so much!!

Great guide for UX Design! I thought viewing YouTube videos and reading blogs on different websites would be enough. However, Google's UX course creates its blogs, videos, tests, and quizzes stress-free to help me understand the fundamentals of UX design and UX research. They're easy to understand and the reading phase during the course wasn't as boring as other websites I've read, making me engaged throughout the whole course, prioritizing clarity over brevity. Can't be any more helpful than that. I thank you.

As a fairly new self learner of UX this course did exactly what it said it would, which for me was to, introduce new terms, ideas and processes and to reinforce or got me to think more about previous knowledge.
I enjoyed the ratio and length of the videos and reading assignments, as well as the optional material. There were a variety of presenters from different backgrounds doing different UX jobs.
If you are considering taking the Google UX Certificate or even another UX course I highly recommend this course.

I can't express how valuable the 'Foundations of User Experience (UX) Design' course has been for me. It exceeded my expectations in every way. The content was insightful, the instructors were knowledgeable and engaging, and the practical exercises truly enhanced my skills. This course has equipped me with the essential tools and knowledge to excel in the field of UX design. I'm incredibly grateful for the opportunity to learn from such experts. Thank you for providing this outstanding educational experience!

Provides a good overview of what UX Design is, what you can expect from jobs in the field and gives you enough content to complement on your own. (Of course you won't learn everything, but if you look for articles and material online you can get a solid foundation)
Also, the way everything is presented is super engaging and interesting, it had me fully connected and paying attention, taking notes as everything was valuable. Even knowing people's experiences in their journeys becoming a UXD have great value.

Before this course i was completely blank as UX designer, Now i'm litlle bit confident about some concepts: like what is UX, what is good UX, designers careers, Product development life cycle, Frameworks like: design thinking, user centered design, five elements of UX designs, lean UX , double diamond, inclusive, equity focusd design, universal design, design sprints, accessability, portfolio etc. These all things were great. Thanks Google, Thanks coursera.

Great deal of content has been covered in this "foundation" course. Those who are aspiring to become a UX designer can see this as a great start. Very well explained and foundations have been covered as the name suggests. Some people complain that the glossary for these courses by Google includes words/terms that are only used inside Google and not used internationally as a community, but I couldn't care less about the nomenclature as long as I get to learn the concepts with tremendous amount of clarity.

Easy to understand the lesson. it's clear and very helpful for me who are new for UX design.
But would like to add some point on User experienceI found that it's dificult to notice that which stage or lesson we are looking at. Better to add color or something easy to notice. Given some scenario : When i go back to the previous and browse on the lesson and read content and would like to change lesson and then i tap the lesson that i reading because there is no icon or anything i can realize where am i now.

For a "Foundations of UX" part, is was very relevant, complete, concise, clear and a pleasant experience.
I was able to follow the course actively from the computer and from a phone (even if there were few bugs on smartphones). I would recommend this certification course, and I will continue, on my side, the next chapters. My goal is to complete the entire Google's certification path. There's a lot to do and I have no doubt it will be pleasant and rich. Thank you Google and Coursera for this opportunity.

This course is very helpful. First, it gives newbies a quick and clear understanding of the content of the designer's process. Especially the employment related introduction is very practical and beneficial. Secondly, what helped me a lot was building my portfolio, personal branding and networking, social networking. The hand-on, step-by-step guide teaches how to do it, and the process of doing it also makes me feel more confident about my career change. Thank you google and cousra, thank you teachers!

I liked the course. Everything is very clearly structured, which allows you to stay focused. The information presented is really useful and also structured and added with nice visual illustrations, which also helps to remember everything visually. Very nice teachers who motivate and I was interested to listen to their different experiences. I admire how Google works and their attitude towards the team and users, I dream of working in a company with a similar approach, this approach is very inspiring.

Thank you for providing an overview of Foundations of User Experience (UX) Design. I think it would be beneficial to add a session of a simple completed project in the Foundation course, for students who are not experienced in application development and do not understand the complete application lifecycle. Excellent presentation from each teacher. I loved the joy of each teacher. The illustrations also help changed the atmosphere of the project. It demonstrated that an UX Designer job is fun.

The Foundation of UX Design course introduces the core principles of UX design. It covers essential topics like user-centered design, the design process, accessibility, and equity-focused design. The course also explains how UX roles vary in small, medium, and large companies. It helps to understand UX roles and collaborate effectively with teams. The importance of design sprints for creating user-friendly products is also emphasized. This course is an excellent start for anyone new to UX design.

I was excited about this course, but also hesitant from a negative experience with the last course I took. It was through a different university. It was a coding course for front-end development, however, at a certain point I was unable to get the same results that the lesson showed. I had no one to contact and could not figure it out. Eventually, I gave up on the course. I was SOOOOO pleasantly surprised that I had zero issues following this information and learning the information. Thank you!
