We continued our recap of the HFES Annual Meeting on EID
this week. There were so many great events there, it might take a bit longer
still. We will be mixing in some other
topics going forward as well. Look
forward to it.
We started the week off with France’s narrative of her
experience in the UX Day Leadership Development Workshop. This is one of the more innovative components
of the program. It is an invitation-only exclusive event designed to identify
the future leaders of the UX profession and help accelerate them in that
direction. This year’s cohort was made up of some very impressive young
professionals (such as France) and we have high hopes for their futures.
Tuesday covered the UX Day Design Challenge. This was a
really fun session and we own a special thanks to Bridget Lewis for making it
happen and to United Technologies for sponsoring the session and giving us the
design challenge.
Wednesday was my recap of the accessibility panel that I
hinted at last week. It was really an honor to be on that panel. I learned a lot from the other panelists and
hopefully they can say the same of my contribution.
Last but not least, Thursday covered the winner of the UX
Day Best Paper Competition. Thanks to
the hard work of our panel of judges and State Farm’s generous sponsorship, we were
able to reward a truly stimulating research project with some extra attention
at the conference. Congratulations to Vince Mancuso and his team at the Wright
Patterson Air Force Base.
