Hello, Future Classmates!

Product Classroom is an online classroom and friendly Slack community for students who are self-learning product design.

Members are part of small groups that hold each other accountable and work through a design curriculum together throughout the semester, along with guest lectures from industry product designers!

Frequently
Asked Questions

Q. When will I be placed in a group?

We will be sending out a Google form later today where you can indicate if you want to be placed in a group to meet weekly + your preferences for group members if you have them.

Q. Who is in my group?

We will be sending out a Google form later today where you can indicate if you want to be placed in a group to meet weekly + your preferences for group members if you have them.

Q. What if I don’t want to be in a group?

If you don’t want to be placed in a group but you still want to be part of Product Classroom and work on our assignments in your own time/schedule, that’s okay too! You don’t need to fill out the form.

Q. What should I refer to myself as?

You will be a product classmate of the year you participated (ie. fall 2020). Since we are not application based + not a full fellowship, we would prefer if students didn’t use the term fellow.

Q. When/where will recordings be posted?

We’ll upload them at the end of the week and they’ll all be located in your designated Google drive folder.

Q. What tools will we be using?

We will mainly be using Figma for design exercises, ideation and execution. If you currently don’t have Figma, don’t worry! It will be free for students and classmates during the 10 weeks of our program.
