The User-Centred Design (UCD) Process

🎉 Master User-Centered Design (UCD) with "The User-Centred Design Process" Course! GroupLayout Your Path to User-Centric Interfaces 🛠️👥

Introduction to User-Centred Design (UCD)

Did you know that half of your development time and cost in a software project is dedicated to user interface engineering? And that providing an excellent user interface is the most critical factor for customer acceptance? In this course, we'll explore these facts and more, emphasizing the importance of user-centered design.

Why UCD Matters 🎯

• 50% Cost & Time: A significant portion of your project's budget and schedule is allocated to UI engineering.
• Top Priority for Success: User satisfaction with the interface can make or break a product's success.
• Beyond Skills: Crafting an enjoyable user experience requires insights that extend beyond coding abilities.

The UCD Process Explained 🕰️

• Understanding UCD: Learn how User-Centered Design integrates Cooperative, Participatory, and Contextual Design.
• Structured Phases: Dive into the structured yet flexible phases of UCD.
• Efficient Integration: Discover how to seamlessly integrate UCD into different development methodologies like Agile, Spiral, or V-Model.

Key Methods in UCD 🛠️

• Hierarchical Task Analysis (HTA): Analyze user tasks to improve usability.
• Personas: Create realistic representations of your target users.
• Card Sorting: Organize content into a logical structure through user involvement.
• Paper Mockups: Gather user feedback on early design concepts without complex software.
• Hi-Fi Prototypes: Test and refine high-fidelity prototypes with real users.
• NASA Task Load Index (TLX): Measure cognitive workload for better interface design.
• System Usability Scale (SUS): Assess the usability of your product quantitatively.
• Cognitive Walkthrough (CWT): Identify potential usability issues in the design process.

Course Highlights 🌟

• Real-World Application: Learn UCD principles you can apply immediately to your projects.
• Interactive Learning: Engage with techniques and methods through practical examples and exercises.
• Expert Insights: Gain knowledge from industry experts who specialize in user-centered design.
