Lesson Details
Key learning points
- Designers gather user feedback to iterate prototypes.
- Designers analyse the user feedback to iterate prototypes.
Common misconception
Once a final product is complete no further iterations or improvements are needed.
Designers constantly seek to improve and develop their designs and products. No product is ever perfect.
Keywords
