UX Week 2008 is proud to present for the first time two and a half hour workshops on a variety of subjects. Aimed to allow for deeper learning, workshops will be hands-on and activity-based, while others are more facilitated discussions.
Some of the many fun-titled workshops include:
- Unpacking Stories to Serve People Better
- Live, Vast and Deep: Web-native Information Visualization
- The Neo-Futurists Short Short Story Workshop
- Become a Sticky-Note Ninja: The Problem Solving Power of Sticky-Notes
- Design is Made of People
- Making Thinking Tangible
Hosted at the Palace Hotel, not only will you be challenged to think differently about user activity, you'll be sure to bring back the tools necessary to empower change on all levels of design, usability and production.
