UX & You: User Experience Research and Design

We have all been hearing about user experience and here is your 
opportunity to learn what it is all about and how you can get useful 
data to improve your services, web portals, digital humanities projects 
or physical spaces.  Let's start making a better impact by engaging with 
our communities.

The New England Chapter of the Association for Information Science & 
Technology, together with the Simmons College Student Chapter, invite 
you to join us at our 2016 Winter Event, User Experience & You: UX 
Design and Research. Morning presenters will give an introduction to the 
topic and share their insights and experiences. The afternoon will 
feature interactive demonstration tables that will give you hands-on 
practice with various UX research tools and methods, followed by short 
case studies by Simmons students.
