Learning Objectives
Priorities: 🥚, 🐣, 🐥, 🐔 (click to learn more)
1. Design Thinking
[ ] 🥚 User Empathy: You understand what user empathy is, and can use it to understand a classmate's needs and help them plan a home page.
[ ] 🥚 Design Cycle: You will be able to describe the design cycle and what steps you will take in each state (Empathize, define, ideate, prototype, testing and implement).
[ ] 🥚 Double Diamond: You can separate the design and deliver phases of a project. Design and delivery are a never-ending cycle, but it helps to be clear when you are focusing one or the other.
[ ] 🥚 Stakeholder Interviews: You can interview another student to learn their motivations, needs, and blocks
[ ] 🥚 Rapid Prototyping: You can use rapid prototyping techniques (such as paper prototyping) to test initial design hypotheses and receive user feedback.
[ ] 🥚 User Journeys: You can write user journeys for websites that you use.
2. Gestalt Principles
[ ] 🥚 Design Principles: You can apply some of the key design principles to your own site, such as alignment, proximity, contrast, balance and space.
[ ] 🐣 CSS: You can use CSS3 to implement responsive & accessible designs.
3. Collaborative Design Softwares
4. Accessibility
[ ] 🥚 Accessible Design: You will be able to make a website design more accessible.
[ ] 🐣 Screen Readers: You can navigate a web page using a screen reader, and can use semantic elements and ARIA labels to make your web pages accessible.
