About the Course

Conduct UX Research and Test Early Concepts is the fourth 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 will learn how to plan and conduct a usability study to gather feedback about designs. Then, you will modify your low-fidelity designs based on insights from your research. 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: - Plan a UX research study, including the project background, research goals, research questions, Key Performance Indicators, methodology, participants, and script. - Explain the importance of respecting privacy and user data. - Conduct a moderated and unmoderated usability study. - Take notes during a usability study. - Create affinity diagrams to group and analyze data. - Synthesize observations from research and come up with insights. - Develop persuasive presentation skills to share research insights. - Modify low-fidelity designs based on research insights. - Continue to design a mobile app to include in your professional portfolio. To be successful in this course, you should complete the previous three courses in the certificate program. Or, you need to 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; as well as an ability to create wireframes and low-fidelity prototypes on paper and in Figma....

One of the most useful courses for me. I have gathered soo much knowledge from this course. The work and assignments might seem a bit cumbersome, but trust me when you do those you will learn a lot.

It was a decent course. I would've given a 4/5, but I had to suspend my studies for a bit due to an unexpected event in my life, and the second weekly challenge got restructured sometime during the month I was away. I have to redo the assignment (which took me hours to do just the first time) according to the new template and rubric, even though I'd already put in all the work that was originally required. The new version is even more tedious than the original assignment and does little to justify itself. I have everything else completed and submitted; this has been the biggest and only roadblock in the way of earning my certificate.

This section had a lot of redundant info with sections from earlier in the course. I understand that the course is following the design thinking process, but it felt like a step back -- we learn about research, when move onto designing in Figma, then go back to research in this section, and now back on to designing in Figma in the next section. I felt like it could have been much shorter, doing a 1-module (or less) recap/re-angling of how to do research, which we went through at length earlier on.

At the beginning of the course it saids that this course can be transfer as a credit for studying Bachelor of Arts in Psychology or Bachelor of Applied Arts and Sciences, but at the end when you finish and they give you the certificate, in the certificate it says this: an online non-credit course authorized by Google and offered through Coursera Thats not cool.

The content was good, the instructor i had seemed much less passionate than the other instructors so far on this Google Certificate Program for UX design. Although he was the highest ranked in Google, it seemed maybe at a price he got to that level, because he just seemed so emotionless and robotic.

Not so details and intuitive course. Very less guidance in terms of how research is done in the real world. The assignments are not clear explained on what is expected to be submitted. Need a lot of re-structuring of course material and proper guidance towards each Weekly challenge.

I was so gladddd... The man of the first course is better to follow. He breads between the sentences.

I see a lot of student adding the wrong document of really diverent things. A infinity diagram is that catogorized ore not?

Lots of redundant information. This course is largely filler and designed to lengthen the overall course. Not recommended. This certificate program has been a waste of time.

This course is a rehash of the previous 2 courses in this entire certificate program. Its just explaining the same concepts over and over again and not useful.

Is it really that hard to include an example of a completed assignment? Me and everyone I reviewed were confused quite a bit.
