Learner goals and capabilities

A well-designed user experience builds trust and loyalty with your target audience. UX design creates a positive and well-defined customer journey. In this project, students will implement the UX design process to provide you with an optimized prototype for your website or app.

Note: I have taught this course since Feb 2020 and I have had 44 successful clients thus far. Due to the vast amount of applications, I may not be able to respond to all of you. Please be clear about what your organization does and why you would benefit from the students working on your app or website.

The project will begin Oct 18-Dec 13

Please note you're required to dedicate a minimum of a 45-1hour check-in with the student team every week.

Thanks and good luck!
