Course "User Research"

Date

December 7th, 2018

Description

The course starts with an overview of user research methods in different phases of a project’s lifecycle: from exploratory research, through to participatory design and evaluation. We will then show how to consolidate data from user research to create personas to be used for design. Personas typically come with scenarios, story maps or storyboards. Finally, we will be discussing how to select the right mix of qualitative and quantitative methods to triangulate data and thereby gain a richer understanding of users’ experiences.
