it helped me become aware of my own shortcomings and taught me to be sensitive towards myself and others as they are also humans and in their own journey! that is, if you look at the bigger picture ;)

If most designers were aware that their products should be user-centered, everyone's life would be much easier. This is in a nutshell what this course is about. By the end of this course, one will learn 1) the basics of UX, 2) how to think like a UX designer, 3) join the design sprints, and finally integrate research in the design process. And yes, you will also learn how bias impact your design and how to mitigate it. It's a fun and easy to follow course. Therefore, I highly recommend it.

Excellent material. I walked into this knowing nothing of UX, and just having an interest in it because it seems like a really well fitted way for me to utilize my creative skills to start learning a new career, and to re-invent myself. I already feel that I am being provided with so many useful tools and foundational knowledge, and love the ability to work at my own pace, since I am highly motivated and plan on sawing through as much material as I can in a relatively short period of time.

The process of refining the prompt was insightful as it helped me focus on the most relevant aspects of the UX design task at hand. By continuously evaluating and iterating, I was able to craft a more precise and actionable prompt. This ensured that the output was directly aligned with my goals and provided clear guidance that could be immediately useful in a practical context. I feel more confident in understanding how to balance specificity and clarity to achieve a productive response.

Really enjoyed the Foundation of User Experience (UX) Design course. All the content was informative and helpful in laying the foundation into what a UX designer does, details of one can expect and general knowledge of truly what UX design is all about.
I thank you. I've been looking for a course like this as I transition from IT to UX. This is a great course and I would definitely recommend this course to anyone that is looking to get into UX design as a career or for understanding.

A concise introductory course to get me started in UX Design, that includes familiarising with the terms used in this field, the types of work a UX designer may get involved in, the stakeholders in a project that a UX designer will likely liaise with, and some of the problems a UX designer may encounter while working, eg. Bias.
I love how the materials are arranged and I am confident that it will help guide my journey in acquiring new knowledge in this field as I complete this program.

This was a great course and very helpful in filling in the knowledge that I needed to be a more effective UI/UX designer. I'm attempting to transition between careers (education to UI/UX) and I have a strong design background (I teach and practice graphic design at a University) so the process of creating a functional and beautiful design was much easier than the thought process, design process, and job opportunities available in this course. It was well organized and easy to follow!

The topics covered under these course are very interesting, knowledgeable and easily understandable. The instructors also explained every topic in a very short and simple manner. The different experience of the people also provided valuable insights and motivated to start the career as UX designer. The practice assignments, quizzes, activity all helped to test our concepts and practically applying them. I cannot wait to furthur explore these course and preparing my first portfolio.

I'm from India, and while I couldn't afford the full price, I'm incredibly grateful to Coursera for offering a 90% discount on the UX design course. It's been such a valuable resource for my career growth. The course material is easy to understand, and it's truly helped me more than words can express. I would be very interested in enrolling in the remaining seven courses in the UX design program. Is there any way you could help me find out about additional financial aid options?

I had an incredible experience with this course. It provided me with invaluable insights into the various roles in the industry and felt like a mentor guiding me through the entire journey. All the instructors were incredibly helpful and provided me with step-by-step guidance on how to approach different tasks. Although the course was challenging at times, the experience was excellent. I am incredibly grateful to the Google team for providing me with this incredible opportunity.

This course is very informative and helpful in numerous ways. I came into course 1 not knowing much about what UX design entails. After course 1 I had a better idea of what UX design is and what other careers are possible in this field. You immediately learn what an entry-level UX designer's responsibilities are and what the process is in creating product. I love the variety of careers UX Design has to offer. The videos and reading with links to resources is useful as well.

The course is really straightforward and easy to understand while also being very comprehensive. There is a LOT of information, and I know that a lot of people skipped through to complete it, but I found that taking my time and actually working through all of the information and exercises (including the optional ones!) allowed me to better absorb the information. I also found the comprehensive glossary very helpful, although I took my own notes as well for retention purposes.

In this course, I've found valuable insights in work-life processes and design sprints, along with understanding the product development lifecycle. These topics have been particularly engaging for me. They've equipped me with practical skills and knowledge that I'm eager to apply in my career as a UI/UX designer. My goal is to work at Google, and this course has been instrumental in preparing me for that journey. I look forward to continuing to learn and grow in this field.

This course is just so good! I learned so much from it. I gained so much knowledge not only about UX but all the creative fields. And the best part about this course which is different from the other courses is that, they don't only focus on the material studies, they focus on what problems you might face as beginner and how to solve them. If it wasn't for this course, I would have the courage to build my portfolio or my own website. So thank you Google! Thank you Michael.

This was one of the most organized courses I've taken thus far on Coursera's platform. The presenters weren't just speaking off the top of their heads. It was evident that they'd spent time preparing the dialogue, which I appreciated greatly. It made reading the transcripts of videos so much easier to understand. Thank you for that. I am looking forward to future courses in this Professional Certificate. Everything was presented professionally throughout the course.

This course has a very nice interface to have an easy learning and some evaluations to help you know how you're doing.
The topics where it is centered are overall let you know what is UX design, how does it work in a professional environment, what types of UX design exist and an introduction about them, how do you need to take into account users and some methods to complete a UX design process.
It's a nice introduction to UX design if you're new into this environment.

I really enjoyed this course and feel that it has given me a solid foundation to help kickstart my new career in UX Design. My only critique is that in the section featuring LinkedIn profiles, all of the profiles were of recent graduates who majored in UX Design. I am in my early 30s and am changing careers. I would have liked to see more resources on how someone who changed careers incorporated their knowledge and skills from their previous career into their resume.

Navigating Coursera's CareerCommunity via SLACK was a major challenge with little support, but otherwise the UX content for this initial course was great. The videos are not long, and I appreciate the closed captioning + Save Note feature that lets users capture key definitions and processes on the screen for later review. There's a consistent pattern of content-laden video, then reading, then practice, then a quiz which I also found helps with the learning process.

Wow, I'm really at a loss for words to explain how amazing the course was! Honestly, it exceeded all of my expectations and I learned more than I ever could have imagined by just reading articles, books, or watching videos on YouTube. Now that I've completed the course, I feel so much more confident in my understanding of UX and I'm excited to put it into practice. I'm no longer afraid or hesitant to tackle new projects because I know I have the skills to succeed!

I really enjoy the course with lot of new things to learn. Instructors are awesome with smiling face and the flexibility of this course is amazing. I've never completed a course like this before (remote education) and I cannot express how great the instructor was and the overall content of the material. I will be looking into taking more of these courses through Coursera in the near future. Highly recommended.
I hope, one day I will be a part of Google team.

I really found it helpful that there were subtitles available on each of the videos. As well as, hilighted text to read along with. I am someone who learns best with subtitles and highlighted texts, it not only helps me retain the imformation but allows me to stay engaged. I appreciated the mulktiple choice quizes, and the "downloadable" glossary PDF's. Overall it's a really great course for someone who is just starting out in the world of UX design. Well done!

It really provides a great introduction into UX Design.
My only problem with it was I feel like some forced interaction with other students would have been beneficial however when you can be on your own time frame I understand getting people together seems near impossible.
There is still interactions people can have like study groups and discussion boards.
In the end I 5 STARED this course because of the abundance of information in a easily delivered manor.
