Course Overview
“This innovative course is perfectly designed to help high schoolers gain real world knowledge and experience before committing to a UX/UI Design career path. Students in this course will develop an understanding of the UX Design process and how to create meaningful products. They will explore the importance of designing interactive experiences with a human-centered focus. Students will learn how to identify and target users and competitors to gather useful information and feedback by conducting user studies, user testing, and unbiased surveys. They will get the opportunity to apply their newly gained skills to a hands-on project by using their design research and analysis to develop an effective prototype. While specific briefs vary from course to course, course projects are selected to perfectly complement the skills covered in class and enable students to make a real-world impact.
Students will kick off their week with a course orientation, then move on to design principles, UX tools, and user research to learn more about their potential users, and UX terminology. They will then finish off the week learning about UI design and wireframing. Throughout the course as well, students will perform UX research, learn about metrics and their impact on storytelling. Students will then get introduced to a case study and learn about leading with empathy. Their second week will culminate with a final presentation.”
