Time magazine recently proclaimed that the transgender movement is “the next civil rights frontier.” Are you unsure of what it means to be transgender? You’re not alone. Everyone has a gender identity. Gender influences our customers’ behaviors. It influences the way our customers present themselves to the world. We’re making design decisions for customers whose gender identity affects their lives, both offline and online. Designers have struggled to understand the intersection of gender and design for decades. We often overlook gender or take it for granted. Sometimes we resort to assumptions like women like pink stuff and men like football, but these assumptions rarely help us make an authentic connection with our audience. Meanwhile, a new civil rights movement is disrupting the notion of gender identity. As designers, what do we need to understand about gender identity? How do we design experiences that are inclusive for everyone? The answer, as any UX designer will tell you, is it depends. Gender’s role in the design process varies from project to project. We’ll explore gender identity, what we as designers need to know about gender identity, and why an understanding of gender identity will help us make effective designs even stronger.]]>

From education to law enforcement, local government is responsible for basic quality of life services that all of us care about. Yet city and county leaders are elected by a small fraction of voters. Reporter David Morton will explore citizens' influence over public institutions and the changing role of local journalism.]]>

In March 1989, Tim Berners-Lee wrote a “vague, but exciting” proposal for a hypertext-based information management system. That proposal eventually became the World Wide Web, a system that rapidly outgrew the competition, moved beyond the altruistic goals of its creator, and today dominates the Internet. Kimberly Blessing, a twenty-year veteran of the Web, will put lessons learned during those early days into a modern context for the next generation of web designers and developers.]]>

There has been a lot of hype about Computer Science Education over the past year in both the local and national media. Is it warranted? Does everyone need to know how to code? (Disclaimer: Jill believes the answer to both is Yes!) In this talk she’ll explore some of the reasoning behind the push for CS Education, some creative ways CS Ed is being implemented around town, and how you can help the growing effort to bring Computer Science Education to all students.]]>

John LeCarre famously said, “‘The cat sat on the mat’ is not the beginning of a story; ‘the cat sat on the dog’s mat’ is.” We need very little introduction to the art of storytelling, but the craft of story is more nuanced and is a skill we can hone. Unless you’re already fully-engaged in storytelling in one form or another, it’s rare that we get to explore these nuances in practice. Come and have some fun with Steph in this interactive session as she demonstrates little ways we can get better at the craft of story—a universal skill that you can use in everything you do. This talk covers some of the material from her forthcoming book: UX Storytelling Handbook.]]>

Tools are an essential part of our discipline. They afford us the opportunity to execute our work in the ways that we intended. However, the landscape of what is available to carry out our work has changed rapidly over the last decade—from the applications we use to strategize and design, to the frameworks and methodologies we use to build and deploy. These tools have not only influenced our processes, but also the way we approach our discipline. In this presentation, I'll explore the evolution of the design practice and the tools we use to craft our work.]]>

The best company voices reflect real people and real values. Kate will talk about finding your company’s voice and adapting your tone of voice based on the reader’s feelings. She’ll share the voice and tone guide her team created and explain how MailChimp’s content improved when they introduced accessible writing guidelines that work across departments. Kate will also share a few lessons she learned the hard way, and we’ll look at some examples of empathetic content (and not-so-empathetic content) from around the web.]]>
