Material Design 3 for Beginners : Customizing Components
This guided project "Material Design 3 for Beginners : Customizing Components" is for UX/UI designers looking to enhance their skills in modern design principles. In this 1-hour long project-based course, you will learn core principles of Material Design 3, the structure and components of the Material Design 3 design system as a design system and learning where and how to locate the components you need from the ready-to-use design system. Finally, you will learn how to customize versatile buttons, flexible cards, and efficient tabs. To achieve this, we will work through a series of hands-on exercises that guide you in building and implementing these components step-by-step to create a profile page for an app. This project provides you with practical experience, allowing you to apply what you have learned directly to your projects. By customizing these key components, you will be able to create cohesive and simple user interfaces that enhance the user experience. To be successful in this project, you will need a basic understanding of UX/UI design principles and familiarity with Figma's layers, properties and tools. .

Beyond the Obvious: How to Think in the Age of Generative AI
Generative AI tools are revolutionizing how we access information, make decisions, and form opinions, but they also introduce new risks. In an age where AI can generate confident-sounding claims, charts, and arguments at scale, critical thinking is more essential than ever. In this course, you’ll use Generative AI as a thinking partner to spot false patterns, challenge biased evidence, break apart misleading averages, and uncover logical flaws in headlines, dashboards, and data-driven claims. Along the way, you'll learn to recognize classic reasoning traps, from Simpson’s Paradox to base rate neglect, survivorship bias, and more. By the end of the course, you'll be able to evaluate arguments using logic and evidence, not emotion or popularity; detect hidden assumptions, flawed comparisons, and biased sampling; and use AI tools to test claims, simulate opposing views, and sharpen your reasoning. Whether you're a student, decision-maker, or lifelong learner, this course will help you use AI not just to think faster, but to think better.

The Making of Modern Ukraine
Ukraine must have existed as a society and polity on 23 February 2022, else Ukrainians would not have collectively resisted Russian invasion the next day. What does it mean for a nation to exist? Is this a matter of structures, actions, or both? Why has the existence of Ukraine occasioned such controversy? In what ways are Polish, Russian, and Jewish self-understanding dependent upon experiences in Ukraine? Just how and when did a modern Ukrainian nation emerge? For that matter, how does any modern nation emerge? Why some and not others? Can nations be chosen, and can choices be decisive? If so, whose, and how? Ukraine was the country most touched by Soviet and Nazi terror: what can we learn about those systems, then, from Ukraine? Is the post-colonial, multilingual Ukrainian nation a holdover from the past, or does it hold some promise for the future?
