Prototyping courses can help you learn design thinking, user testing, rapid iteration, and feedback integration. You can build skills in wireframing, creating low-fidelity and high-fidelity prototypes, and effectively communicating design concepts to stakeholders. Many courses introduce tools like Sketch, Figma, and Adobe XD, that support visualizing ideas and refining user interfaces. By practicing these skills and using these tools, you can enhance your ability to create user-centered designs that effectively address real-world challenges.
