1) UX stands for user experience and refers to understanding the needs, wants, and limitations of end users through research and a user-centered design process. 2) UX designers follow a process that includes strategy, research, analysis, design, and production. They start by defining goals and conducting research to understand users, then analyze findings to inform the design of wireframes, prototypes, and visual design. 3) Collaboration between UX designers and developers is important for successful product development. Both roles are opinionated but share the goal of delivering value to users. Regular communication helps ensure design and development work in sync.

- 11. WTF is User Centered Design? Strategy Research Analysis Design Production
- 12. Strategy Learn where you want to take your product Ask: Where are you now? Ask: Where do you want to be? Ask: How will you get there? Ask: How will you measure success?
- 13. Benefits of Creating a Strategy Gets your entire team involved Clarifies abstract design thinking Reduces the time spent building components that don’t contribute to user or business value
- 14. Research Is an investigative technique used to add context and insight to the design process It is also used to combat the tendency to design for ourselves
- 15. How is Research Done? Non-directed interviews Contextual inquiry Questionnaires Card sorting
- 16. Analysis Takes information collected in the research phase and turns it into actionable information
- 17. Analysis Techniques The creation of: Personas Mental models Storyboards
- 18. Design There are two parts to the design phase of this process: information architecture and visual design Information architecture delivers wireframes and clickable prototypes Visual design produces high-fidelity comps and mockups
- 19. Design Methods & Techniques Sticky notes Project space Good practice guidelines Aesthetics Prototyping User requirements Personas Scenarios Progressive disclosure Usability testing Rapid visualization
- 21. Production You are familiar with this. Trust me.
- 22. Why you should care: Fast Company recently noted that industry studies show every dollar spent on UX brings in between $2 and $100 in return. (DANG!)

Editor's Notes
- Non–directed InterviewsNon–directed interviews are the best way to develop a design strategy without asking users or stakeholders to spell it out. Simply set up some rough guidelines and converse with your audience—but be sure to focus more on listening.Contextual inquiryContextual inquiry involves observing what people do as they go about their day—not what they say they do. It’s useful for creating a website that supports users’ actual (and not supposed) activities.QuestionnairesQuestionnaires invite people to say who they are, what they do, and where they go. Creating one is supremely simple with tools such as Wufoo or Google Docs.Card sortingCard sorting asks people to explore relationships between content and/or hierarchies in an effort to find commonalities. Card sorting is a super simple way to help people find information more quickly and easily on your website.
