UI, UX, interaction and product-design responsibilities digital-product lifecycle and agile collaboration business goals, user needs and technical constraints common deliverables from discovery to developer handoff ethical decision-making and evidence-based design Practical application: Audit one familiar digital product and identify its users, business goal, interaction model, strengths, usability risks and opportunities for improvement. Learning outcome: You can explain where UI/UX fits inside a product team and select appropriate activities for different stages of a project.
• Module 2: Human-Centered Design and Design Thinking
• Learn a structured but flexible approach to solving design problems. The module covers empathising with users, defining a meaningful problem, exploring alternatives, prototyping and testing. It also explains why teams should revisit earlier stages when new evidence changes the problem or solution direction. human-centered design principles design-thinking stages and iteration assumptions, risks and evidence problem framing and opportunity statements divergent and convergent ideation Practical application: Turn a broad business request into a focused design challenge, assumptions map and short research plan. Learning outcome: You can frame a design challenge without jumping immediately to screens or visual styling.
• Module 3: UX Research Planning, Ethics and Participant Recruitment
• Good UX begins with credible evidence. Learners define research objectives, choose suitable qualitative and quantitative methods, write unbiased questions, plan participant criteria and consider consent, privacy and sensitive information. The emphasis is on learning enough to make a responsible product decision rather than collecting data without purpose. research questions and hypotheses method selection and mixed-method awareness participant profiles and screening consent, confidentiality and data minimisation research scripts, logistics and note-taking plans Practical application: Prepare a research brief, screener and interview guide for a web or mobile product. Learning outcome: You can plan a small, ethical research study that connects directly to a product decision.
