Techdegree is built on the Treehouse learning style, with interactive videos, workspaces, quizzes and more.
After completing Techdegree, you’ll have a well-rounded portfolio of projects to demonstrate your newly-acquired expertise.
Test your knowledge with quizzes or test out of subjects you've already mastered. Plus, use Treehouse's interactive Workspaces to create staging environments for the code you write.
Peer reviews are an integral part of the Techdegree experience. Real-world job roles often require a lot of reviewing other people’s code and design—once you graduate Techdegree, you’ll have experience giving and receiving feedback.
Analyze a website to better understand its design elements and determine which are working and which may need to be changed. Think critically about how the website looks and functions and provide clear suggestions for improvements.
Using the suggestions for improvements you noted in the previous project, update the website's design by sketching and then wireframing your ideas. Gather feedback on your initial designs before moving on to high-fidelity mockups.
With wireframing complete and feedback received, move into the next stage of the design process by adding visual design to make your website redesign come to life.
Create a user research plan to gather feedback and data from your target audience. Analyze the data to determine an overall problem, or pain point, you will focus on solving.
Interactions in an app take time to code and can be difficult to change once implemented. It's much better to start with a clear design before jumping into code. This project will practice your ability to prototype apps.
Complete a usability test to gather feedback on a prototype. Analyze the feedback and determine next steps.
