Priorities: š„, š£, š„, š (click to learn more)
There is a lot to learn in this repository. If you can't master all the material
at once, that's expected! Anything you don't master now will always be waiting
for you to review when you need it. These 4 emoji's will help you prioritize
your study time and to measure your progress:
- š„: Understanding this material is required, it covers the base skills you'll
need for this module and the next. You do not need to finish all of them but
should feel comfortable that you could with enough time.
- š£: You have started all of these exercises and feel you could complete them
all if you just had more time. It may not be easy for you but with effort you
can make it through.
- š„: You have studied the examples and started some exercises if you had time.
You should have a big-picture understanding of these concepts/skills, but may
not be confident completing the exercises.
- š: These concepts or skills are not necessary but are related to this module.
If you are finished with š„, š£ and š„ you can use the š exercises to push
yourself without getting distracted from the module's main objectives.
---
[x] š„ 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.
[x] š„ 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).
[x] š„ 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.
[x] š„ Stakeholder Interviews: You can interview another student to learn
their motivations, needs, and blocks
[x] š„ Rapid Prototyping: You can use rapid prototyping techniques (such
as paper prototyping) to test initial design hypotheses and receive user
feedback.
[ ] š„ User Journeys: You can write user journeys for websites that you
use.
[x] š„ Design Principles: You can apply some of the key design principles
to your own site, such as alignment, proximity, contrast, balance and
space.

[x] š„ Accessible Design: You will be able to make a website design more
accessible.

accessible.
