Treehouse Guest TeacherUX Foundations Deep Dive: Intro to User Experience!
Hey Guys!
The first stage of UX Foundations: Intro to User Experience launched a few days ago! Have you unlocked your badge yet?
While this first stage is primarily an introduction to UX, in the next stage we'll dive head first into the research phase and learn how to:
- Define business & project goals
- Determine project constraints
- Choose the right tools, techniques, and methods for our project
- and set a project vision
I'm really excited for this course and I hope you are too! What topics are you most looking forward to learning about as it relates to UX?

Treehouse Guest TeacherI'm so sorry I wasn't able to complete this series on UX. :( I recently relocated to Las Vegas and was unable to continue my teaching at Treehouse, since we have to be in Orlando to record. I will however, still be writing blog posts for Treehouse and will be sure to write some on UX. So stay tuned for those!
I know whoever picks up this topic will do an amazing job. Thanks for the kind words, guys and good luck! :)

I'm really looking forward to the research portion. The more I can learn about research techniques, the better equipped I'll be to implement changes in my current position at work.

I've just earned the "Intro to User Experience" badge and wanted to say thanks for putting together such an excellent first stage in what I'm sure will be a fantastic course.
Going to follow up the references you give while I wait for the next stage to be released.
