About this Course


This course builds on the design thinking skills you gained in the previous course, with a focus on the prototyping phase of the UX design process. You’ll begin by learning to conduct stakeholder and user research and create a feature definiton. We’ll then dive into information architecture, looking at content structure, organizing schemes, labeling, search and navigation. You’ll create flow diagrams for content layout and discover how to map the user journey, then use sitemaps and wire framing to create high-fidelity prototypes with Figma to test and evaluate designs.
