UX Research, testing, prototyping - Google UX Course Review

Hey! It's the 4th Google UX Course week in a row. Find out if I still think the course and certificate are worth it, whether you should continue learning UX that way, and how some of the mentioned processes work in the "real world". UX Research is a complex topic, likely one of the most important parts of this design course. Let's dive in together!

Thank you for continuing this series, they’re invaluable to someone like me who is taking the course with zero UX background. Would love to see a video of you doing a project from scratch and sort of explaining your process as someone with years of experience!

I was actually the lead UX designer for all the plugin activities used in this course! (And for their PgM and Data science course plugins.) I really appreciate your patient and honest reviews.

They were all so much fun to work on!

Im starting this part of the course now. Really enjoy your videos and watch them right before starting each section, they're a huge help to get into the mindset for what's ahead!

I've been making my way through your other videos, your channel is so great and so glad you make these videos its made the transition to UX a lot more accessible :)

Moral of the story. Don't skip the assignments. everything builds up to something else bigger and more challenging. good luck guys.

Actually glad to hear of the increased difficulty. I was concerned that maybe it wasn't too involved and not worth the time. Interested in hearing the feedback from companies on what they think about the course.

That thing you said in the end about you talking with big companies you have had the pleasure to work with is going to be a BIG help for us, beginners, there is always this preocupation about the value of UX bootcamps, online courses etc on the labor market and having that information is really going to help a lot. Thank you for the reviews, great as always :)

[moovi]

Thank you so much for doing this series! I guess its better you continue the same way as a weekly review.

[NicholasMarson]

I appreciate your reviews of the Google UX Certification courses. I was worried about the cheating (I saw it in my peer grading as well), but your videos add credibility to the work I'm putting into the course. Keep it up! I look forward to your videos every Monday to keep me motivated.

[NataliaKedzierska]

I just finished this part of the course, and I do have experience as a designer, but it was tough to me as a beginning UX. I really needed to spend some time to finish all tasks and put effort to make it presentable. I really like to watch your videos after finishing the part to see what else I can read about the topic or what was missing from the course. Thank you for all the knowledge you're sharing with us, the beginners!

[lazybonezlee]

Very informative! Look forwards to seeing your next review of the next google UX course!

[Christina.creative]

Giving us the consistent youtube uploads- lovin it

[soul.rebel]

Can't thank you enough for your time, advice and *honest* reviews.

[brentbrooks]

Thank you for this sir. This has given me hope in this really difficult job market.

Amazing to hear about course progression 💯I'd be interested in the weekly updates if that's possible. Thanks for providing guidance to all us earlier on the design journey!

[M.Manique]

I agree the peer grading is very horrible after completing my assignment for part 3 i felt that one of the peers deliberately gave me a fail i dont know why maybe out of jealousy who knows 🤷🏻‍♀️ but i know how much time and effort i have been putting into my assignments this way of marking is not fair at all and Google should really change this its not fair way to marking learners hardwork they put into their assignments just getting the certificate and not learning anything at the end is total waste of time and i dont understand why anyone would cheat

[shadyworld]

Keep going!
You got me motivated...please each course in sperated video much much insightful though 😅

[o.g]

Looking forward to Your next videos, dedicated to Courses 5, 6, 7. That is really valuable to get the opinion of Professional.

[varunacharya]

This was theoretically heavy course and many iterations of interviews had to be done, communication is important here

[KathyHasRamen]

Enjoying your content. And so glad to hear your opinion about the processes taught in the course versus reality.

Hola, estoy en el curso 4. Decidí hacer un cambio de carrera y empecé por estos cursos de Google. Agradezco muchos sus reseñas. También había visto que otras personas terminaban el curso entero (los 7 módulos) en 15 días y cosas así, y realmente me preocupé porque algunas tareas son trabajosas, hacerlas lo mejor posible, sí que lleva sus horas de dedicación. Sobre la revisión por pares, por primera vez escuché hablar de este problema fue en este canal y te agradezco, además de la malas revisiones en algunos casos, también pienso que la plataforma no carga bien los documentos de las personas, y cuando recibo una de estas calificaciones mal intencionadas, pues lo vuelvo a subir, y luego lo califican bien, a veces marcan menos puntos por no ver el número de casos de estudio y tal, incluso, cuando reciben un pdf con toda la información. Iré viendo sus reseñas a medida que avance en los cursos, Gracias por el contenido en general y por la guía.
