Teaching design principles through practice, not theory

As part of the UX Upskill programme, I designed and taught a 4-week Design Principles course to help students build practical problem-solving skills through hands-on workshops and collaboration.

Teaching design principles through practice, not theory

In the UX Upskill course, students learn how to develop many of the hard and soft skills they will need in the fast-paced world of service and product design.

Week 2’s Programme Material

The purpose of the upskill program is to help individuals who need to upskill or re-skill in order to keep their job, move on to new more advanced career opportunities or change their career path.

My role was to design a 4-week programme under the Design Principles track. Over four weeks, I shared highly interactive and collaborative content through a series of Mural workshops, talks and assignments to engage the 47 students and help them in their learning of how to solve problems with design.

The end of module party was incredible!

I'd do it all again!
