Usability Events

Climate change is arguably the most urgent problem of our time. The impact of climate change is different but serious for everyone on the planet as it impacts everyone’s experience.

““The impacts of climate change that we are feeling today, from extreme heat to flooding to severe storms, are expected to get worse, and people least able to prepare and cope are disproportionately exposed,” said EPA Administrator Michael S. Regan “This report punctuates the urgency of equitable action on climate change. With this level of science and data, we can more effectively center EPA’s mission on achieving environmental justice for all.”

By going beyond user experience (UX) and including relational design we can look at our whole world, together to solve to problems resulting from climate change, Moving past human centered and expanding usability to include a sustainable planet by including all species and their ecosystems. Human centered design has disowned other life specifics and their ecosystems with disastrous effects for our planet.

This workshop will expand UX and Usability to include a hard look at climate change.Working with people on the ground, those directly coping with life changing consequences of climate change, such as fires and floods empower people to cope with crises and change our behavior to think of usability as including all species and their ecosystems. We will work in small groups for short training to be empowered to solve problems as they arise. This will create strong skills people can use, on the ground, to learn how to be proactive and lead with curiosity, not fear.

Welcome to this year’s STHLM Xperience Conference. A participatory conference with lectures, practical tips, and workshops. Speakers on stage are experts in their fields.

In order to celebrate World Usability Day, we follow the theme that they set, and this year’s theme is Collaboration and Cooperation.

Collaboration and Cooperation

In order to solve the world’s biggest problems, we all have to work together. In 2023, we will focus working together to create solutions, both globally and locally. Let’s connect our work to the big problems of our world and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGS).

What are you doing with the most important meeting in your UX career?

The most important conversations about your career happen in your 1:1 (One on One meeting) between you and your manager.

As every year, there is a theme for World Usability Day in 2023, and this year’s theme is “Collaboration and Cooperation”. More than ever, we need to work together to solve our world’s biggest problems. In 2023, we will focus on collaboration and cooperative work that produces real solutions together. At WUD Aalen, we will certainly address areas other than the annual theme. Either way: you can be curious!

The theme for this year’s World Usability Day is Collaboration & Co-operation and how that fits in to the world of UX.

The team at User Vision have got some fantastic activities for everyone to get involved in, including:

• Discussions about understanding emotion in UX Research
• Alt Tag workshop helping you identify & create the best Alt tags
• Usability Testing Demos on your websites
• Accessibility Empathy Lab
• Games, fact sheets and more!

In addition, we are delighted to announce this this year we are having a keynote speaker all the way from the USA who has worked for 30 years in User Experience. Kevin Richardson, Senior Director of User Experience and Product Management at INVIDI Technologies, is coming along to talk about his experiences over the last 3 decades.

As always this is a great way to meet the team at User Vision, join in the fun, network with many other UX professionals, and see what UX can bring to your business.

Also this year interested visitors have the opportunity to get impressions of new interaction concepts at the chair for Human-Computer-Interaction at the University of Bamberg in the context of the World Usability Day. Among other things, there will be the opportunity to try out the eye tracker of the chair.
