Usability Events

Auch in 2021 findet der World Usability Day in Hamburg statt. Corona-bedingt wieder als reines Online-Event. Aber das hat letztes Jahr ja auch gut funtioniert.

Wir sind etwas spät dran, daher läuft der Call for Papers noch. Aber wir werden wohl wieder 8-10 Vorträge und verschiedene Workshops haben. Stay tuned…

Join the UX Research and Strategy group virtually as leaders in the field join together in a panel discussion about trust, ethics and integrity in design! More details to come soon.

A social event for Michigan User Experience colleagues to hang out with each other and help kick off World Usability Day. Since we are meeting remotely, anyone else from around the globe can join us, too.

It will be 6pm on Wednesday the 10th for us in Michigan, but it will already be November 11th in Rome (midnight), Cape Town (1am), New Delhi (4:30am), Beijing (7am), Sydney (10am) and Auckland (noon).

Who we hope joins us:

UX professionals in Michigan, to connect with colleagues you have not seen in person in a while

Students in Michigan, to meet professionals and start your UX career journey

Anyone from around the world who wants to hang out with UX professionals and students from Michigan

More information will be posted on the Michigan UXPA website, with a link to Eventbrite to register.

La sfida lanciata quest’anno dal World Usability Day nasce dalla consapevolezza dei mutati contesti derivanti dalla pandemia da Covid 19.

Nel breve arco di 30 anni, Internet ha trasformato le nostre vite e ridotto il mondo a un villaggio globale. Dalle riunioni di lavoro agli appuntamenti medici, molte delle nostre attività quotidiane sono diventate virtuali.

Ora ci troviamo di fronte alle sfide della progettazione per il nostro mondo online:
La sfida sarà quella di “progettare” un mondo il più possibile a dimensione umana, dove la tecnologia “assiste” l’uomo e non viceversa, ossia al servizio degli utenti e non in contrasto con i loro reali bisogni. In secondo luogo, occorrerà eliminare il più possibile le barriere all’accesso dei nuovi strumenti digitali, in un’ottica il più possibile inclusiva, di modo da non allargare ulteriormente le differenze tra ricchi e poveri.

Se tale scopo sarà chiaro e ben delineato a chi deve adoperarsi per realizzarlo, con un’attenzione particolare all’etica che, ricordiamo, non è altro che il “vivere bene insieme”, si potrà acquisire una maggiore fiducia nell’utilizzo degli strumenti digitali.

Abraham Lincoln famously said that. “Every man is born an original, but sadly, most men die copies.”

The world of UX and design is no exception. Emulation and best-practices are a human phenomenon; the expansion of knowledge and civilization is built on previous knowledge and history. This is different from raw “copy and paste” or unconsciously borrowing ideas from someone else which blind us to other more organic and empowering ideas of the future. Such an approach is rarely successful in real-life design and complex or chaotic contexts – where emergent or novel practice is required. This is especially troubling in a post-COVID19 world, as individuals and organizations quickly move towards socio-economic resurgence and a semblance of control. In these troubled times, it is more tempting to copy “ready-to-use” ideas, in-vogue policies and projects from success stories elsewhere. Blatant copy-paste of policies or projects irrespective of their local contexts and without regard to the contexts in which they are being pasted, is an assured recipe for failure and hopelessness.

We invite you to explore and deconstruct the phenomenon of copy-paste using Casual Layered Analysis and what it implies for the world of design and foresight.

Este 2021, el Día Mundial de la Usabilidad se celebra el 11 de noviembre. Por segundo año consecutivo en UXPA MX estamos organizando este evento en línea y nos encantaría poder contar con tu participación.

El tema de este 2021 es Diseño de nuestro mundo en linea: Confianza, ética e integridad.

En un breve lapso de 30 años, Internet ha transformado nuestras vidas y ha reducido el mundo a una aldea global. Desde reuniones de trabajo hasta citas médicas, muchas de nuestras actividades diarias se han vuelto virtuales. Ahora nos enfrentamos a los desafíos de diseñar para nuestro mundo en línea:

– ¿Cómo generamos confianza en el entorno en línea?
– ¿Cuáles son las implicaciones éticas de nuestros diseños?
– ¿Cómo diseñamos para la accesibilidad, para asegurarnos de que todos puedan usar nuestros diseños?

En nuestro tema de este año, buscamos explorar los sistemas de diseño en línea que nos ayudan a mantenernos conectados, aprender y crecer en estos tiempos de transformación. A través de este tema, nuestro objetivo es abordar cuestiones importantes como los patrones oscuros y el diseño ético, el diseño para la confianza y la diversidad, la equidad y la inclusión.

Estaremos anunciando la agenda con las charlas y el panel del evento.
