This course was definitely more about learning WordPress, and how to build custom themes in WordPress, than User-Experience Design.
Discovery exercises, wire frames, and design comps were not a course requirement; but have become part of my usual work flow.
I conducted abbreviated exercises with my clients to identify who would be their anticipated users, and what these anticipated users might need.
I also made this quick wire frame, as well as these quick and dirty design comps, in Illustrator to solicit feedback from my client before starting any markup.
