About the Course

Foundations of User Experience (UX) Design is the first of a series of seven courses that will equip you with the skills needed to apply to entry-level jobs in user experience design. UX designers focus on the interactions that people have with products like websites, mobile apps, and physical objects. UX designers make those everyday interactions usable, enjoyable, and accessible. The role of an entry-level UX designer might include empathizing with users, defining their pain points, coming up with ideas for design solutions, creating wireframes, prototypes, and mockups, and testing designs to get feedback. 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. No previous experience is necessary. By the end of this course, you will be able to: - Define the field of UX and explain why it’s important for consumers and businesses. - Understand foundational concepts in UX design, such as user-centered design, the design thinking framework, accessibility, and equity-focused design. - Identify the factors that contribute to great user experience design. - Review common job responsibilities of entry-level UX designers and teams that they work with. - Explore job opportunities and career paths within the field of user experience. - Explain why design sprints are an important and useful part of a UX designer’s work. - Describe common UX research methods. - Identify and account for biases in UX research....

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 ;)

I recently wrapped up the "Foundations of UX Research" course on Coursera, created by Google, and I have to say, it was a great experience. If you're looking to dive into UX research or just want to brush up on the basics, this course is a solid choice.

Enjoyed the layout of the course, its video presentations, and the supplemental links to helpful articles. The test for biases and the additional glossary tool are also helpful. Thank you for taking the time to put the Foundations of UX Design course.

Loved every bit of the course! It allowed me to rethink some of the learning methods from a previous course I had taken and now I know why so many people say the Google UX Design certificate has got the best educational material available on the market!

I think this course was good overall but most of the discussion questions were a bit biased. Most of them were directed toward UX designers already in the business. This prevented me from participating in all parts of the discussion topics and sessions.

I really enjoyed the online course. I thought it was well planned and layed out, easy for me to follow. The work load(h.w. & test)was just enough, so i could finish everything with enough time, learn about the topics and not feel over loaded and rushed.

I very much enjoyed this course and everything it had to offer. I felt this was a very good intro into what UX/UI is and what you can do with a certificate. The learning curve was manageable and the course of the material was readily at any given time.

Overall it was great, very descriptive and lessons were broken in small chunks of information, so it wasn't overwhelming. Although for someone, who already did some work in UX (and maybe wanted to just upgrade), this was all already known material. :)

This is really a very memorable experience for me. Where I can easily understand every lesson given. I hope educational institutions can adapt learning methods like this, especially during a pandemic like this that requires all of us to study remotely.
