Video: Course Recap for Principles of UX and UI
This course covered the principles of UX and UI design, including:
- Introduction to UX and UI design, differentiating between the two, and understanding UX goals and quality components
- User-centered design, empathy tools, and personas in UX design
- Evaluating interactive design, including evaluation methodologies, designing for accessibility, and best practices for navigation and form design
- Applied design fundamentals, including working with Figma, iterative design principles, wireframing, prototyping, and usability testing
- Designing UI, including enhancing designs, creating component-based high-fidelity designs, using mood boards, and creating design systems in Figma
- Creating high-fidelity design prototypes, including micro animations in UI, and animating and testing prototypes
The course concludes with a practical assignment to design a booking table on the Little Lemon website and a graded assessment to test understanding of the course material.
In this course you learned about
the principles of UX and UI design. Let’s take a few moments to recap
the key topics that you learned about. In the opening lesson you covered
an introduction to UX and UI design. During this introduction you are able
to differentiate between UX and UI. Describe what UX is, its goals and
quality components and defined UI and different types of design. You also got started with Figma and
explored user centered design and the concepts of empathy tools and
persona in UX design. You then moved on to
evaluating interactive design. In this topic you explored
evaluation methodologies and covered designing for accessibility. You also examined best practice
principles of evaluation by studying practical examples of navigation and
form design. You then progress to learn about
applied design fundamentals. In this topic, you explored
the fundamentals of working with Figma and reviewed principles of iterative design
including wire framing, prototyping and usability testing. Next you moved on to
explore designing your UI. Here you learned how to
enhance your design and create component based
high fidelity designs. You also learned how to use mood boards
and how to create design systems in Figma. Then you covered how to create
a high-fidelity design prototype and include micro animation in UI. Then you learned how to animate and
test your prototype. After all that you are now ready for
your assignment, booking a table on the little lemon website
to put in practice what you learned. Then you will take the grated
assessment to try out what you learned in this course. Good luck.
