In this four-week course, you will learn the key concepts of user-centered design and how to employ them in your website projects. You learn how to incorporate usability heuristics throughout the web project process. We will discuss processes and techniques to make your website more usable in all stages of development: requirements gathering, conceptual design, prototype development, and then finally launch and ongoing testing.

This course can be taken as one of six courses needed to earn our Certificate in User Experience (UX), but can be taken as a stand-alone course as well.

Carolyn Ellis is the Digital User Experience Librarian at The University of Texas at San Antonio Libraries. She holds a bachelor’s degree in art history from Trinity University and a master’s degree in library and information science from The University of Texas at Austin. She has over 15 years of experience in developing and managing web projects, user-centered design, usability testing, project management, change communications and process improvement while working in libraries, information technology and community development organizations.
