Ladies Learning Code: Intro to User Experience (UX) Design - Windsor

WHY LEARN ABOUT UX DESIGN? With great DESIGN COMES GREAT RESPONSIBILITY. User EXPERIENCE (UX) DESIGN ISN’t just about creating pretty or functioning websites - it’s about creative solutioning and trying to make people’s lives and EXPERIENCES BETTER. As DESIGNERS, we need to remember that we aren’t DESIGNING PRODUCTS FOR OURSELVES, but for other people. Being a UX DESIGNER ALLOWS YOU TO WORK WITH AND PROBLEM SOLVE FOR A VARIETY OF DIFFERENT PEOPLE, and empathy plays a huge part in this. During this collaborative learning experience, we’ll explore the difference between UI and UX, and how they work together. We’ll walk through the design cycle; including discovery, user testing, and user personas. Learners will also have a chance to experience different UX methods through hands-on exercises, including building physical and digital prototypes. WHO IS THIS FOR?
