Back in September, my friend Karen Tang and I taught a UX Foundations workshop as part of the PGH-Tech meet-up group. In the workshop, students were grouped into teams and asked to create think about a design problem in one of four domains: Health, Education, Kids/Family, or Travel. Then they utilized a number of techniques and strategies to ultimately wireframe a solution. In particular, we covered…
- storyboarding
- personas
- journey maps
- sketching
- design critiques
- dot voting
- grids
- colors
- typography
- ….and more.
By working on a real design challenge, students were able to experience many different aspects of product design.
