Course description
  • UX Design for Mobile Developers
  • 6 weeks
  • Learn to Design a 5-Star Android App
  • This is a UX design course built for current (and aspiring) mobile developers. In this short course, you’ll step back from your IDE and dive into the techniques that great designers use to plan and prototype amazing apps before any code is written.
  • What is User Experience?
  • User-Centered Design
  • Designing for Mobile Constraints
  • Designing for Android Delight
  • UI vs UX.
  • High level planning.
  • Low-fi wireframing and prototyping.
  • The perils of ignoring your user.
  • How to create effective personas and use cases.
  • Low cost user research.
  • The 5 big constraints: limited data, finite battery, hand-held usage, divided user attention, and small screens.
  • The implications of these constraints and what happens when you get them wrong.
  • Advanced wireframing.
  • Android sensors.
  • The importance of contextual apps.
  • Android APIs (Google Play Services).
  • This course is optimized for the developer who is looking to efficiently learn the most important design techniques that will help them make better apps (with a focus on mobile/Android).
  • That said, programming experience is not required to benefit from the design principles and best practices we teach in this course.
  • See the Technology Requirements for using Udacity.
  • UX (User Experience) is a big deal. Though the term is often confused with User Interface, UI is only only a tiny subset of UX (we’ll talk about the difference in Lesson 1).
  • You should take this course because well-designed apps are just as important as well-built apps.
  • The goal of this course is to help you understand the most important and immediately useful techniques and approaches used by great mobile UX designers. This course won’t turn you into a designer, but it will help you incorporate design elements into the products you build.
