First of all, we need to understand a concept, from 0 to 1, from ordinary to excellent, and more depends on ourselves. The essence of participating in UI training is to help you sort out the knowledge skeleton system of zero-based students and help you learn systematically from shallow to deep. Including how to study? What is the focus of UI learning? How to grasp the key points? Training can only help you get started quickly and find a job. It takes a lot of study, practice and project accumulation to improve design thinking, design ability and design taste and become an excellent UI designer. All this is inseparable from self-effort.
Secondly: the curriculum outline of UI design. Under normal circumstances, the training time of UI is 4-5 months, and the UI course outlines of major training institutions are actually similar (few are original, many are copied online). The key point is whether the teaching is carried out in strict accordance with the syllabus in the process of teaching implementation. Some training institutions have well-written outlines, but they will cut corners and steal the column in teaching implementation. In view of this situation, I suggest that you can go to the scene to audition, and you can chat with your classmates in your spare time between classes and listen to what they say.
UI outline is generally from the shallow to the deep, more from the perspective of 0 basic students. Generally includes the following knowledge points:
The first stage: art foundation and visual hand painting, learning sketch, color principle, color psychology, color collocation and composition principle, mastering design theory and basic skills;
The second stage: GUI software foundation, including the operation of Photoshop and Illustrator related software. Understand the use of commonly used GUI tools and software; Understand the processing skills of bitmap images and vector graphics; Master the hidden skills behind the tools and apply the standardized design of software teaching.
The third stage: graphic design, including theoretical knowledge of composition design, logo design specification, corporate visual identification system VIS, poster design in the later period of image, brochure design, etc.
The fourth stage: web interface design, including WUI software foundation, web interface design foundation and web page standardized layout.
The fifth stage: mobile phone interface design, including mobile phone icon design system course, product thinking and interaction design foundation, app interface design.
The sixth stage: the ability to strengthen and improve, more is some design training. Help to understand the specific application of creativity in design; Understand the principle of formal substitution of creative thinking; Master the ability to transform creative thinking into graphic style.
Finally: student works. This work is very important. In the interview process, a good job is an important bargaining chip for salary. The quality of students' works can not only reflect the teaching level of teachers to some extent, but also reflect the learning atmosphere of training institutions, students' participation consciousness and subjective initiative. Only a famous teacher can make a noble apprentice. A good learning atmosphere can make students in it have more motivation and passion for learning.
