ABOUT THE TALK

Making UX Design decisions is tough and there aren’t many tools to help us make them. There’s a lot to consider and many things that are easy to overlook. Successful experiences need to accommodate the right elements even though they’re difficult to perceive or assess. How do you frame them so that effective choices are made? Likewise, delivering a great design is a challenge of role and skill. Will a team be able to do what needs to be done? How do they know what they need to be good at, and who needs to be how good at it, in order to accomplish experience goals?

This practical session will discuss two important frameworks for UX design, Context and Capabilities.

You will:

• gain practical tools for choosing, designing and prioritizing key elements to achieve your user experience goals.

• understand the advantages, liabilities, strengths, and weaknesses needed to deliver on them.
