Test your designs and connect with your design values

User testing can be used to measure whether your concept and design meets the needs of users and how you iterate on your design work. You will carry out your very-own first usability test, collect data and gain insights. Here we also deal with dark & light patterns in design and learn what responsibility designers bear with their work - to other people and to our environment.

Creating your portfolio
