During our week 3 of internship class we are asked to join a virtual networking event. I decided to choose a UI/UX webinar that explained UX case studies from the content of a UX designers professional portfolio. Case studies are important to UX design because it shows how the designer thinks, adapts, cooperates, and ultimately solve challenges. The title of the webinar was “Thinkful Webinar | UX/UI Design: Designing A UX Case Study” and hosted by Thinkful webinar that hosts webinars to provide information on high-growth tech career.
The topics covered in this webinar were what is a case study?, how case studies are essential to your portfolio, and how to make a case study stand out on a portfolio. During it, I learned that UX designers are essential to both the research and visual design of the topic and you can be either or both. Case studies show the structure and research behind the UX design. It is important to look at other case studies to build off of and gain inspiration for your own. The overall goal of a case study is to show that you can solve a problem and convey the proper research methods to deliver the idea.
