online event; open to mentees and mentors in Publishing 360
Why is it that we find some apps and websites enjoyable to use, while others make us want to throw our phones out the window? “Web design” often makes us think of aesthetics, like color and typography, but that’s only half the story.
In this workshop we’ll learn about the cutting-edge field of user experience (UX) design, and how you can make your own online content—social posts, portfolio sites, maybe even that app idea you’ve been scheming, easy and fun to use!
