Loved it, but a bit basic! Also it should be called Adobe Express course, in my case I love to design with Canva or Figma, so this is more like a course to promote Adobe Express

This course was a fantastic introduction to design fundamentals. It was practical, easy to follow, and the AI tools were incredibly helpful for the creative process.

The course is great for both beginners and designers looking to refresh their knowledge on fundamentals. It also does a great job of introducing and familiarizing Adobe Express as a design tool.

This has been a great step so far, am glad using coursera for my career building, I really didn't have any idea of what creativity was but now am confident enough with my new skills

I would prefer if there were more instructional videos to explain the topics and processes in detail. Overall, it’s a great course and a valuable learning experience.
RE
Brilliant course for any creative, whether you're just starting out, learning a new tool, or a refresher now we're working with AI I would recommend as a thorough base for Express practice.

I enjoyed this course. I think adding in more videos along with the readings would help break up the reading portions but overall I learned a lot and think the course was great.
GP
Too much Adobe Express stuff. I understand it's a very complete and useful tool but I think other important tools should have been mentioned as well.

Should be called Intro to Adobe Express
not much practical information.. basically a tutorial to how to use adobe express which you have to purchase after 3 months trial version, the only interesting thing was the color theory
the policy for these course is not ethical. they will only let you go forward if you pay for it. ut, i have a monthly member ship and I have to wait the next bill cycle t to move on in the course. but, i can pay to get my certification early. people who doesn't see the wrong in this?
It covered the basic and essential knowledge you must know as a designer. They explain it clearly and simple.
Outdated instructions and links that don't work to templates in Adobe Express with no IT support available about the issue. General Help topics don't fix the issues. Also need to pay for Adobe Express monthly until completed.
Built a stronger foundation in design principles for content creation. Fun to learn and breezed through the lessons and quizzes. UPDATE: In this updated MODULE 1, my favorite new addition was the Dialogue Coach. It allowed me to put more thought into my answers and received constructive feedback.
Switched from Canva to Adobe Express. I feel like this platfrom really offers a more professional looking outcomes and easier to achieve, for small projects like flyers and advertising.
Great introductory course. Although I was familiar with a lot of the content, I was still able to get a deeper understanding of the fundamentals of design.
it's very unique way of teaching online courses. I like so many activities to test what I am watching and learning
This course had a good explanation Design Fundamentals, but it ended there. When it came to using Adobe Express, I felt like the course spent too much time selling Express and less time actually teaching me how to navigate the app. They explained more of telling you what you CAN do and LESS time on how to do each task. I found myself on my own most of the time trying to find features where I should have been led in step by step instructions on the navigation. Also some things were outdated and when it did tell where a feature is, it didn't exist there. I have been in many lessons and am accostomed to more guided practice. You could not see the examples in the lessons very easy, because they used small thumnails that can't be opened to view larger. Also the final project should have been done a step at a time throughout the lessons with guided instructions for each part. Instead they waited until the end with no guided instruction to take care of multiple parts of the project. I am not sure if I am going to continue this series, at the $50 monthly course fee for a .ORG is inappropriate for instruction that is not nearly as refined, good as other patforms. It could just be this one course, so I will start the next one in the series and if it is the same as this one. I will go back to Udemy or Continuting Ed, or the Adobe Class Series as they seem to have it figured out for much less $$$
This is a solid course for beginners who are new to graphic design or for those who want to create digital designs for themselves. However, if you are already skilled in Adobe Creative Cloud applications and know the design principles, this course may not be suitable for you, unless you need Adobe certification.
I have completed design fundamentals. The course only shows using of the software - adobe express; so far. But has advertised to show usage of adobe illustrator, adobe Photoshop and other important softwares.
A very professional and well-structured course! Pleasant video editing and design. It was very helpful to learn about different templates in Adobe Express, as well as size adjustments for different social media. Special thanks to the charismatic instructors! Thank you for your hard work!
I absolutely loved this course this is exactly what I needed. Adobe can do so much and it seems overwhelming and this was the perfect course to help me understand a lot of the tools as well as provide a foundation in design.
Many other free design tools exist without requiring credit card information. Offering a truly free version would make Adobe Express more appealing to students. Coursera and Adobe team should think about it.
