Hi Everyone, We have five new webinars* in early 2009, including Bill Scott of Netflix discussing the finer points of what interaction designers should know about engineering DHTML interfaces...
** User Research Beyond Usability (with Christian Rohrer) ** January 29, 2009 Christian Rohrer will provide a framework for understanding and explaining different user research methods. http://www.rosenfeldmedia.com/webinars/user-research/ ** Bringing Design to Life: What Every Designer Should Know about Interface Engineering (with Bill Scott) ** February 26, 2009 Bill Scott will focus specifically on the technical challenges and opportunities for DHTML-based web sites and applications. http://www.rosenfeldmedia.com/webinars/interface-engineering/ ** Content Strategy for Websites (with Kristina Halvorson) ** April 23, 2009 Kristina Halvorson will offer step-by-step instructions on how to integrate content strategy into the website design process. http://www.rosenfeldmedia.com/webinars/content-strategy/ ** Shifting Your Focus: Content as Conversation (with Ginny Redish) ** May 28, 2009 Bringing you the practical implications of linguistic research on conversation, Ginny will help you with your content strategy—what information to focus on, where it goes on the web site, how to decide how much to say about a particular web topic, how to organize it on the page, and how to write it. http://www.rosenfeldmedia.com/webinars/content-as-conversation/ ** Extending Game Design to Business Applications (with John Ferrara) ** July 16, 2009 As more people spend more time interacting with game-based environments, the applicability of these experiences to everyday user interfaces and business applications will become impossible to ignore. This webinar will provide an overview of game interaction spaces, look at game design applied in real-world contexts, and survey useful interaction patterns found in games. http://www.rosenfeldmedia.com/webinars/game-design/ And you can purchase recordings of our first two webinars: ** Using Mental Models for Tactics and Strategy (with Indi Young) ** In this recorded Future Practice Webinar, author Indi Young (bio) introduces mental models, describes how they benefit tactical design projects, and shows how you can use them to manage strategic change. http://www.rosenfeldmedia.com/webinars/mental-models/ ** Modern Web Form Design (with Luke Wroblewski) ** Luke walks you through the latest applications of rich Web form interactions (made possible by dynamic technologies like Ajax) including: flexible inputs, dynamic help systems, inline validation, selection dependent inputs, and more. http://www.rosenfeldmedia.com/webinars/webforms/ * About the Webinars Future Practice webinars teach you new skills while shining a light on the future of user experience practice, all at a price that's more friendly than flying to a conference. They are produced by Rosenfeld Media and Smart Experience.
