UX/UI Design Foundations

Real portfolio pieces built during the course, not a certificate for its own sake. Each one is work you can show.

• User flow setThree flows for one product: the main task, a recovery path and an administrative task. Each shows entry points, decisions, every branch including empty, failed and abandoned, and where each exit lands the person.
• Wireframe to prototype progressionOne feature shown at three fidelities with the reason for each step recorded: sketches comparing structurally different options, a low fidelity wireframe with real content, and a clickable prototype of the tested path.
• Accessibility pass, before and afterA logged pass over one screen: each failure with what was wrong, why it fails, the fix, and a before and after image. Includes the keyboard walkthrough and any trade the fix cost you.
• Written case studyThe single most important artifact for this role. Problem, constraints, what you did, what you learned, what you would change, written so a reviewer can follow the reasoning without you in the room.
• Design rationale noteA one page response to real feedback: the decision, the evidence behind it, the point you conceded and why, the point you held and why, and what result would change your mind.
• Discovery findings and problem statementTwo weeks of call notes turned into evidence: callers grouped by what they wanted with counts rather than percentages, the thing in the current flow that sent each group to the phone, an honest verdict on whether the requested chatbot would answer them, what the sample cannot establish, and one sentence naming the problem.
