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.

This course itself is very useful and easy to understand. However, when I turned in my prototypes, I got an unfair grade from the peer review. Due to that, I needed to submit my work again to get full credit from somebody else.

It would be very nice if we can report it when we get grades that seem unfair, and let professionals/instructors check assignments.

Thank you!

This course was very good. The instructor's explanations and the resources were excellent. However, the peer grading system is quite bad. I was unfairly reviewed by someone because this person didn't know how to access the link. Instead of asking this person found it easier to fail me. I had to resubmit the same thing again making me waste my precious time.

4 stars! i think the Google UX Design Course is an excellent course however it is let down by peer grading! i think it is a terrible idea hence i gave 4 stars Google should employ someone professional to mark learners assignments as some peers do not mark fairly or cheat which is not fair on learners who worked very hard to complete assignments

It's difficult being graded by peers who are clearly not taking the course seriously. It can potentially set back students who are trying their best by having to re-submit misunderstood assignments, and the program allows them to leave a punctuation mark for credit when other's actually answer the prompts and would appreciate real feedback.

This was a tough course for me. I have never drawn anything before now. So when I had to draw wireframes and build that wireframe in Figma, that was a bit challenging. I still need help with my portfolio and building the low-fidelth prototype app that I have chosen. I am a bit stuck and need to ask someone a few questions.

i think all the steps taught by instructor are clear. all external link provided in reading page also very helpful. 1 thing to mention is i hope google can provide more related Figma tutorial link in this course, so that it makes the student know more about how to be a pro in figma! thanks you.

I love the course and all I have learned! My only advice - I am a graphic/web designer and I haven't worked with Figma. I needed info (links / advices) from you (the professionals) on what is the best practice to learn Figma in details so that I feel comfortable working with this tool in future.

I completed my lofi prototype on June 19 and had to resubmit it at least 3 times because of the link process not working. Moreover, trying to get assistance with why my progress was being delayed was almost impossible. It would be nice if someone from tech was more readily available.

The question about how to avoid hidden fees was difficult as there are more inclusive solutions. I understand that the answer with the calculator was from the reading, but it is a poor question as there are better solutions (like an itemized menu that you can collapse/expand).

This course was nice sweet and fairly short. I appreciated the 3 weeks worth of work instead of 4 and building wireframes and prototypes were fun and engaging. I still wish that peers did not review our work and trained instructors did so we could recieve real feedback.

I loved doing the wireframes and digital prototyping. However, with a physical disability, a lot of the instructions were not physically possible. Had to do a lot of 'work-arounds to complete the projects. I would like to see these courses be more inclusive.

Course dates reset too far in the future. I'd have to pay 3 months of subscription before I was able to get my completed assignments graded. There should be an easier way to reset the grade deadlines instead of having to wait for the deadline to pass.

Contents of this course are excellent. I just wish there was more types of evaluation than Peer Review - this course lacked concrete feedback or coaching. Would have like some more quizzes or practice exercises with model answers to compare to.

Very good course with good information. There are some out-of-sequence issues with information presented that may require you to go back to redo assignments you already did (which is really annoying). But, other than that, I learned a ton.

The content and assignments are fine. But I thought it was go-at-your-own-pace and yet I get "This item will be unlocked when the schedule begins." slowing me down on my day off. Pretty annoying and only reason I give it 4/5 stars.

The first course in the specialization where in we start to get a glimse of our app. This course has been really motivating as it has allowed to see the results of the efforts that we put in the past two courses.

Great course! I appreciate the bit about deceptive patterns and how the course is taught for designers to be aware of it and avoid it. Also really enjoyed prototyping and I'm excited to take the next course!

I have some troubles with the required quizzes. I am pretty sure that I selected the correct answer but when I reviewed my graded answer, the choices were already shuffled so I became wrong for that Item.

Real great learning blocks, just enough for you to learn the basics. But UX/UI is always evolving, so I highly recommend playing with Figma asap. So you don't let it be a bottle neck to your learning.

creo que se pierde un poco de tiempo y contenido valioso al hablar de los wireframes y prototipos de papel, es un tema que se podría tocar de manera general y profundizar más en los digitales(figma).

Very insightful and good practice exercises. There were some sections on deceptive design and inclusivity that felt like it didn't belong to this course, but instead to the first or second course.
