Description

When you design a product you make a lot of assumptions. And a major reason that product designs fail is because of these assumptions. The assumptions that will get you into the most trouble are the assumptions you make about your target audience -- who they are, what they want to do, and how they want to do it.

In this course you will learn all the different types of user research, from personas, scenarios, and task analyses, to field studies, card sorts, tree tests and journey maps.
