We all want to easily accomplish tasks such as navigating websites and following instructions - yet, ineffective designs prevent us from this. This first year seminar will help you recognize the power of effective design through user experience (UX) and human-centered design. We will collaboratively problem-solve and consider concepts of UX, usability, accessibility, and user- and human-centered design within information design, such as document design, graphic design, and especially web design.
