Online forms are the critical bridge between your website or online application and customers actually purchasing from or making connections with you. Seemingly small differences in form design and layout can result in a customer completing their transaction — or abandoning it entirely. This can have an impact of thousands or even millions of dollars. Capitalizing on these opportunities requires an understanding of advanced concepts and experience with key details.

Students will take a deep, in-depth look at online forms as a specific aspect of web design, focusing on the impact of information, interaction and visual design in a variety of different online forms. As a student, you will participate in discussions and hands-on activities that illustrate the concepts, while giving you the chance to exercise the skills so your company’s web form design will successfully facilitate users taking the action you want.

Key areas of focus include:

* Input Fields

* Input Labels

* Validation

* Feedback

* Calls to Action

* Visual Elements

* Dynamic Inputs

* Progressive Disclosure
