Designing for Digital 2019

This session will be a case study of the strategy, design, and development of Georgia Tech Library’s new Drupal 8 website. The session will consist of a project overview & timeline, we will touch on the site requirements, personas & use cases and discuss the design process & design elements. We will end with a demo of the site components.

In this workshop, you will learn principles of UX research and a framework for scoping projects, and then apply those principles and framework to your own research questions. You will leave with a stronger command of what good research is, how to do it, and why (or why not), as well as a project plan you can get started on. All participants are highly encouraged to come with at least one research question/area from their own work to use in the second part of the workshop.

Practical Hyperlocal Service Design is a 3-hour workshop designed to level-up participants or teams with  a working knowledge of user experience design by introducing techniques, tools, workflows, organizational structure, and theory focused around hyperlocal service organizations -- like libraries -- whose success depends on their ability to keep their finger on the pulse.
