カリフォルニア大学サンディエゴ校 による Design Principles: an Introduction の受講者のレビューおよびフィードバック

Great for the first 2 weeks of class, the third week seemed really unbalanced though and all of the sudden was about 4x the amount of time to watch videos. I wouldn't have minded if the same material was spread to an extra week.

Good course. The leactures could be better structured, but with some complementary reading and insistence, you bust right through.

A very good learning course. The content could be more in depth to get a better understanding.

Just in week 1, this course has me examining and evaluating things I normally would take for granted...including work arounds!

O curso passa conceitos bem básicos de design de interface, ux e etc. É interessante para quem quer ter um primeiro contato, as aulas são boas e o professor explicar de uma forma super tranquila de entender. Gostei bastante.

This class was insanely insightful, and I found many of the topics covered very interesting and fascinating — towards the end of the course, specifically around designing experiments, I found that whole terrain to be pretty difficult to comprehend. I think the lectures have opportunities for improvement here.

Some of the evaluation methods just allow other people how doesn't do to much work to just pass...

Interesting materials.

Overall, the course is excellent, though if you take the whole specialization, the last week on doing A/B testing is copying another course's material - Running and Analyzing experiments. Other than that, the course is excellent, lots of examples and literature to read on your own pace.

Overall the information and exercises were good. The introduction to A/B testing was great and provides a good base layer of knowledge for the experimenting and analysis section of the IxD program. I would say that the week 3 assignment was frustrating as a grader since the rubric seemed to ask for very specific answers when the questions allowed for broader interpretation.

The first assignment was very confusing in terms of what was required, and it should be fixed.

This is a great course with tons of valuable info. The peer-review projects are very hands-on, and you learn a lot by doing that. However, I wish there were more explanations for certain things (for example, for the experiments section) - or at least, more resources to get further info. Also, for Assignment 3, it would have been very helpful to have the answer key, since there is some confusion around some of the answers.

The exercises are very confusing to submit and to rate (peer rate review, sometimes too long questions and you lot the commitment). I would like that the teacher had a much linear methodology through the Specialization, in many moments it feels like he´s losing the objectivity.

It would be nice to reinforce the main concepts, instead of doing mathematic equations...

Design Principles has been meticulously structured, although, I'd have loved to lean more on Typography. One feedback to Professor will be to update his content and include more contemporary examples.

good tips for testing experiments

Good explanation of few design ideas and technics.

Lectures are clear and extensively cited; assignments are interesting.

Really good introduction to interactive design

Another very good class in this specialization.

This course really helped me understand what to ask of my Design team!

If you do not have experience with data analysis (specifically speaking Pearson's chi square technique), you might struggle like me.

Several errors in lecture and lack-luster assignments decreased my perception of value.

OK

Very interesting, but I found it a little bit confusing.

don't feel like I'm learning from the videos.
