Study Notes

AHBC 107 is a course on Sketching Interfaces and Paper Prototyping at Qassim University's Applied College.
The course covers various topics related to sketching, including design funnel, sampling with cameras, and animated sequences.
The course includes assignments, quizzes, attendance, participation, two midterm exams, homework, and a final exam as assessment tasks.
Paper-prototype sketching is an inexpensive, time-saving, and collaborative method used in UI/UX design.
The toolset for sketching is simple and includes a pen, paper, highlighters, and a ruler (optional).
Common UI elements have symbols representing different components of the user interface, such as text lines, headings, checklist, images, and buttons.
Sketching is about communication, not aesthetics, and the general layout should be the starting point for sketching.
Sketching can be used in various stages of the product design process.
Sketching is an essential skill for UI/UX designers.
The earlier paper prototyping is used, the better.
When sketching, start with the largest element and add details later.
Complex shapes are often made up of basic shapes.
Using colors can denote levels of hierarchy and help users understand the sketch faster.
Consistency should be maintained throughout the entire prototype.
Interactive elements should be highlighted in the same color to reduce cognitive load.
There is no right or wrong way to sketch out ideas.
The quality of the sketch is secondary to the ideas being conveyed.
Highlighters can be used to add color to sketches.
Colors can be a great visual indication for users.
Sketches should be easy to understand and convey ideas effectively.
