It looks like they updated the fifth course to use Figma now. 👍
Just watched the entire video and honestly I really leart a lot and I feel more prepared to take the Google UX Course. I have been a graphic designer for about 3 years and I look to transition into the UX Field in 2024. Also looking forward to taking your Boring UI Course and others to support my transition. Thanks again
Thanks for all the helpful stuff man!
this has been super interesting and insightful, thank you! i started taking the google course a while back, but needed to pause due to events happening in my life. before getting back into the course recently, I looked up "how to become a UX designer" vids on youtube AND THEY HAVE BEEN SO HECKING HELPFUL to give context to what I was learning, and to understand WHY i was learning those things. This video is super in depth about the google course specifically, but all the of the ones I've watched have been really helpful in better understanding what to pay attention to, and what I can take with a grain of salt. THANK YOU :)
The most disheartening thing about the course is that probably about 1/4 of the homework I have had to peer-review was either a blank ppt or directly copied from a pro's dribble account. A few even said "Pass me," in their notes.
Yes, I mentioned it in the video intro - it's a big issue.
omg same! I was so heartbroken at that
I think that dramatic drop-off you see after the 1st module is the people that started the course in the Coursera Plus free week.
Hello! I just found ur channel when I started studying UX/UI Design in the past 2 months, and it's been really helpful. I'm at the 2nd part of the video rn, but I did the 1st and just finished the 2nd Google UX Course; for me, I do think that the first part is really good to see if you really want to continue in this field. For the second one, it was a bit harder, but I think that's great! Because they took it deeper and we can finally understand what really is UX (researching). I didn't like the fact that other students were grading us tho. I lost 1pt bcs someone just wanted to, and yea, I also found a lot of people trying to get free points by doing nothing. But about the UX/UI of Coursera, it is waaaaaay better now. I do think it has space for improving, but it's not as bad as it was back then. The mobile version is not as responsive as the desktop one tho.
Tysm for ur video (and I'll finish it xD), u're doing a great job. I'm gladly I found you.
Panie Michale, zacząłem swoją przygodę z UX około tydzień temu i zacząłem Google UX Design Certificate. Dziękuję za wspaniałe treści, jest Pan moim wielkim UX-autorytetem i śledzę już Pana kanał od jakiegoś czasu, dzięki czemu zainspirował mnie Pan do zmiany kariery! Na pewno w przyszłości posilę się również Pana kursami, a ten film wygląda na bardzo przydatny przy przygodzie z kursem Google’a😄
Bardzo mi miło :)
Thank you 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Hi, I’m half way through the video and it’s so very valuable - thank you. Im currently on course 3 of the google UX course. I have been working in design since 2002, in the last few years I have worked for small companies covering branding right through to no code websites using wix. I have also upskilled to learn motion design to further develop how brand identities communicate. I wanted to do this course to understand the terminology of what I already feel I have been doing intuitively for years. I really appreciate your insight especially on the “UI” elements as I feel this is where i feel I am most experienced and where this fits into the UX field of design. I’ll look at sharpening up my skills through your courses after I complete this! Thank you
Happy to hear that! :)
Exactly! Wow 1h 32! Soo coool, I just wish you would create longer episodes from time to time! :) Have a beautiful day!
Most my livestreams are quite long, for now I'll probably stick to those ;)
Great news, I'm waiting for it! :)@@MalewiczHype
Hello Michal,
Thank you for your full review on Google UX Design Course. I've recently completed this course and I am trying to land a job as a UX researcher, designer.
You asked to share opinions about this course, and I have a lot to say (I started to post my thoughts on Medium).
I agree with the fact that this course requires much effort, but at the end, all these knowledge is only the basics. Unprofessional response from peers, lack of UI guide and other small things you mentioned - altogether make this course not enough to land a job. I tried so hard to finish the second project, and even thought to give up because I didn't understand how to do UI part! I am more "coding" person and far from arts (but I am trying to improve my UI skills!) By the way, your UI book helped me a lot to finish hi-fidelity prototypes for second and third projects (red square method became my favorite one!) Thanks for this book too!
Based on the learning experience of Google Course (anyway, I am grateful they made this course) I would like to have it shorter: maybe one demo project and one real student's one, BUT that one should cover all desired areas of knowledge, and, as a result, project will consists of a dedicated mobile app and a responsive website. I know one project is not enough for portfolio, but having at least one high-quality project is a necessity.
Our UX course will be shorter, we've seen some similar comments before that people get too bored with the length and that peer grading is a horrible way to learn too.
I'm currently taking taking this course, I'm at the low fidelity section. I'll add this to my toolbox as a frontend engineer
Such an amazing review you did Michal. I have been watching over your work for a long time now, and I truly appreciate your work within the industry. ❤
I was going to ask as well if you will offer aid opportunities like Coursera does?
Great videos as always ❤❤..but I am badly in need of a very flexible design process that could work for both mobile / Web to tackle small to medium freelance projects(yeah design is an iterative process but still something digestible ,as using a huge design process for smaller projects can turn quite hectic). Would love to see you in action doing a complete product from scratch (practical way of bringing unique ideas into better ux patterns to advance Ui exploration like diving much much deeper into colors and type to get them work together according to the project mood) so maybe pro - juniors can then shift on advance ui and ux techniques after learning the basics
A lot of that is in my web design courses (that process in a more complete way)
I finished Google UX Design course on financial aid twice. I tried to learn more from other sources in terms of UI design. I can't tell you how grateful I would be if you take a look at my case studies. It can give you a further idea about how effective the course is for a person who dedicated this much.
Michael I consider you a God Father in UI/UX industry...in a good way... I have seen many UX designers but you are the greatest... thank you for creating great content... Because of you I was able to get a job in Abu Dhabi UAE last month and you have a big contribution in that... early on I made several case studies but I was lacking so much in fine tuning in designs specifically I got so much help in your 5 levels of UI videos...thank you so much man❤❤❤
Congrats! Super happy to hear success stories like that :)
@@MalewiczHype I want the designer like you 😍
What do you think about the University of Michigan User Experience Design course vs Google UX Design?
Guess I'm really lucky then, most of the homework I have to peer review are pretty good, apart mayyybe the competitive audit. That thing tooks a bit of effort and some post some pdf of random stuffs and call it done...
I just finished course 5 on google UX and I’m thinking if I still should continue, because I have the same thoughts as you , ux is good but ui is really weak. I studied in past interior design so I try make my projects better than the others in this course.
For most people I recommend either my free stuff on this channel and insta, or my UI courses instead of part 5 as it simply is a bit of a waste of time to do it. Certificate is worthless, so completeling all 7 segments is not essential really.
Yes , I follow you on instagram as well and have couple of your products. I think you convinced me to finished as it is.
We're only on instagram for a month or two more, after that it will all be on a dedicated platform with free plans (and cheap paid plans for structured learning). I figured out how people can get better faster and we're pursuying it right now with the new platform and tthe daily ui challenges.
I have been Watching you for a long time bought both your books and course which they made me learn the UI faster and in the right way.
But i honestly lack of UX! I'm really tired of buying others course but i got no results. Please recommend one UX course(No beginners) that's useful for my current situation
We are making a UX Course ourselves too (with a very talented, senior UX'er from a big company) - but can't reveal more yet.
I just know that, you already become designer same as year I was born 😆
I've took Google UX course and quit after completing 6 Segments/sub-courses, and yeah Adobe XD is still included in the course. This course contains a lot of information repeated over and over again through out the entire curriculum.
Peer Grading thing is Just horrible, and as you've said there are some cheaters. I've seen people submitting others projects and case studies by stealing from behance and medium.
Woow 1h! 😮
92 minutes because it includes EVERYTHING :)
Hi! I just started course 3 and I am planning to finish everything faster than Google expecting.. do you think is it possible? there is a "Discussion Prompt" besides video and readings - and it is blocked, says "This item will be unlocked when the schedule begin". So looks like I have to wait and pay for my subscription even if I am going faster on the course, am I right ? thank you!
It wasn't time blocked when I took it, maybe it's just unlocking once you complete all the asignments. But can't really say how it works right now.
Hello, I have the same problem, do You maybe already know what's wrong?
That’s happening to me!! Did you finish and end up paying?
I would like to ask do you guys recommend any courses/ study path to enhance the skills + recognizability as a uxui designer??
Check the pinned video on my channel page.
Hola, quiero comprar tus cursos pero, quisiera saber si los videos del curso son traducidos al español?
currently most courses have english subtitles only.
Just a quick question sir…i didn’t use the google UX course
I just learn how to use figma to design mobile app and website
I’m I good to go to start looking for job?
It was all self taught so I don’t have any real life project yet
I will really appreciate if you can see and reply this comment
If your UI is good then sure, you can get a job without any UX course. But having that UX knowledge expands your pool of companies a little.
So annoying when things don't line up. I thought it was only me 26:30!
Hi there, I'm currently a CS student and interested in UI UX career(more into UX) and have started learning the fundamentals but disnt take this course but need guide with the roadmap or path i should follow.
I have a roadmap pinned on my channel page
@@MalewiczHype Thank you so much it's really helpful.
I'm currently on Course 6...man, how much do I have to kick my own bum to continue...I feel like the whole course is just a waste of time, I barely learnt anything. Sure, UX part is covered but as you mentioned the UI part (which I am more interested about) has literally 0 information. Course 6 is basically repeating the same information again, barely any new info shared. I will never get back those wasted months I spent on this course 😢
Seriously parts 1-4 are worth it if you go quick. Then try either my free videos on UI or my courses to simply get to an employable level faster :)
Malewicz I hope you reply to me, I just wanted to say that you was keep mentioning that Industry does not work like that blah blah, can you please make a detailed video on a UX Industry telling what actually happens in industry apart from booksih approach thanks.
I made an entire book about exactly that - called "no BS guide to UX" :)
Suggest me for best UX course (user research to High Fidelity wireframe)
If you can wait 2 months we will have one on our platform.
A person new to design should have common sense to know that Google did not create the Coursera platform.
That's not the point - the point is google picked a BADLY designed platform to deliver their course.
They had options - even building their own.
Not to offend Google, but Google’s design is really bad these years, like toys, which lack creativity and innovation. Google has consumed its reputation for over a decade.
What sid i just say haha,
Following your model!
Wrapping up Courses 3 & 4 then getting into your/hype4academys guide
Goal is to land a UX job in q2/q3 2024 !!
You guys are awesome thank for the tips and being so hands on!
Thanks! That's our goal, to not waste time of people :)
I’ve watched all your videos, read all your books and followed your courses but this is just little bit too long, 😅 can you summarize? I’m too busy doing my real clients design 🫡
The summary is in the first 4.5 minutes of this video. Then it's intended only for people taking a specific segment of the google ux course to follow along with and come back to it when they get to the next one :)
