Slideshare presentations of the week: design

Anjali Ramachandran  ·   28 March 2011

This week, our topic of conversation on the blog is design. From design thinking to user experience design and even learner experience design, a term I thought was fairly new but seems to have been mentioned back in 2004.  

First, Zaana Howard from Swinburne University in Australia talks about design thinking on the fly, using Agile principles.

Next is a presentation from SXSW 2011 with Evan Jones from Stitch Media talking about progress bars, which effectively make things like the beachball of death an example of horrible user experience.

Finally, we have Julie Dirksen from Usable Learning talking about learner experience design, which is not just about user experience but about keeping their behaviour in mind: what do they learn when they look at your design?

Anjali couldn't shake off the habit of calling herself a 'citizen of the world' for the last decade, having lived in 5 countries so far, but has now amended that to 'citizen of the internetz'. She is a strong believer in technology as an agent of social change and likes exploring the relationship between digital services and physical objects. Robots and transmedia storytelling projects intrigue her.
