Overview
The course covers topics such as responsive web design and the challenges of designing for mobile devices, the mobile-first approach, and web typography. It examines the relationship between design and programming, including whether coding knowledge is essential for designers. Additionally, it introduces the core web technologies that power the internet, including HTML, CSS, JavaScript, server-side development, and databases.
The Web Design - Wireframes to Prototypes course offered by Coursera in partnership with CalArts continues the learning path established in Web Design: Strategy and Information Architecture, where the first half of a large-scale project—developing a comprehensive plan for a complex website—is completed. Learners intending to complete assignments and earn a certificate are required to complete the previous course to obtain the materials and data necessary for creating wireframes and mockups in this course.Key facts:
This is the fourth and last course in the UI/UX Design Specialization, which brings a design-centric approach to user interface (UI) and user experience (UX) design, and offers practical, skill-based instruction centered around a visual communications perspective, rather than on one focused on marketing or programming alone.
These courses are ideal for anyone with some experience in graphic or visual design and who would like to build their skill set in UI or UX for app and web design. It would also be ideal for anyone with experience in front- or back-end web development or human-computer interaction and want to sharpen their visual design and analysis skills for UI or UX.
