Workshop ICALT 2012: User Experience on Learning

17.01.2012 | Veranstaltungshinweis

Unter dem Titel "LUX - a creature from far-far-away? A workshop on User Experience, Accessibility and Usability in Learning across Multiple Devices" findet vom 4.-6. Juli auf der ICALT 2012 in Rom ein Workshop statt.


Aus dem Call:
The aim of the workshop is to bring together researchers from different areas of research with different approaches to User Experience in learning. Engineers talk about Quality of Experience (QoE), psychologists debate funology and flow experiences, web developers discuss User Experience (UX). However all these fall short, as they do not include other aspects heavily impacting on UX, for example usability, technical environment or web accessibility. Additionally, mobile and touch screen devices are becoming increasingly prominent in technology enhanced learning. These devices raise additional challenges in the area of UX. Making learning for all come true, web accessibility and the guidelines in their current version of WCAG 2.0 expand the issue further. Research shows that mobile users have similar needs as people with disabilities. Aspects of all these issues have been studied, but rarely in combination, although they will impact on the experience of the learner as a whole. The workshop wants to encourage a holistic discussion and we hope to find some answers for the following questions:
  • Where do we go from here?
  • What happens when we combine all these aspects of Learner User Experience?
  • How will this change learning and how can technology support this?
Zielgruppe des Workshops sind Wissenschafter aus den Bereichen:
Quality of Experience, psychology, user experience, usability, accessibility or a mix of those in a learning context, researchers who have something to say and ask questions about learning across multiple devices and who are bold enough to create a visionary design.

Einreichungen sind bis zum 13. Februar möglich.
