This document discusses student reflections from an after-school printmaking class and trip to New York City. Students felt the out-of-school setting allowed for deeper immersion in projects without school distractions. The small class size created a creative environment for open discussion and idea development. Visiting museums, galleries, and studios inspired students by exposing them to professionals who were once in their position. The experience provided a more serious and professional perspective on art classes.
Dear Diary - Researching the LSE Welcome Week ExperienceEva Jirjahlke
Presentation from UXLibsII, at thestudio in Manchester, 23-24 June 2016.
The presentation is about the diary study I ran during LSE's Welcome Week in September 2015. I talk about some of my findings and the lessons I learned running such a study as a UX team of one.
Presentation for the UXiLibs 2016
“Speak, friend, and enter” – Labyrinths, symbolic spaces, and gated communities in university libraries
“‘What does it mean by speak, friend, and enter?’ asked Merry. ‘That is plain enough’, said Gimli. ‘If you are a friend speak the password, and the doors will open, and you can enter.’”
Library spaces can work as gated communities, labyrinths, and access deniers: They hinder users in navigating through the information architecture built of rooms, shelves and books. If a user hasn’t enough library experience, he/she will get lost within the library building. But for those who succeed, library spaces often are symbolic spaces. They appropriate the spaces: they understand and modify the social and material environment by for instance choosing a favourite (work)place and (re-)arranging the furniture. They develop a feeling of belonging and ownership over ‘their spaces’.
Using a mix of methods of user experience research and ethnography like participant observation, interviews, and mental maps, I conducted a comparative case study among university libraries in Europe. My presentation will illustrate some of the results and trace the used methods along examples from the data material. The aim is to give an insight in possibilities to investigate and improve library spaces.
Open Access Roadshow.
With Open Access now firmly on the agenda of HEFCE and RCUK in the lead up to REF2020, this is an ideal opportunity to learn more about Open Access publishing with several publishers and facilitators coming to the event.
All academics/practitioners/researchers working in arts and humanities fields are invited to come along and meet their publisher colleagues in an informal tell-and-show session. You will be able to see what their publishing programmes cover and learn about the experiences of authors who have published in Open Access outlets.
There will be short presentations from Prof. Gary Hall, Dr Rupert Gatti and Jonathan Shaw with the opportunity to speak with them to find out more about the implications and practicalities of open access publishing.

An attempt to distill some rules of thumb for museum interpretation, covering the spectrum from analog to digital. Delivered to an international audience of museum professionals in Yerevan, Armenia on October 21, 2012.
MW17 Closing plenary: Creating the Visitor-centered MuseumPeter Samis
A rare opportunity to come full circle: 10 years ago I presented about an interpretive evaluation that showed that even if our digital interpretive resources made a huge difference for those who used them, most visitors didn't. For five years I've been researching and co-writing a book on innovative museums that use more holistic ways of reaching their visitors. Here's the presentation I gave. (I was followed by Merilee Mostov, Director of Inclusive Interpretation at the Columbus Museum of Art--one of our ten case study museums.)
A slightly enlarged version of a talk given on the panel "Bringing together theory and practice in digital museum communication" with Allegra Burnette, Costis Dallas, Lev Manovich, Susan Hazan, and Sarah Kenderdine. Museums & the Web, San Diego, CA, April 13, 2012. The discussion was just getting underway when the hour ended!

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
18. “The fact that the class was outside
of school and several hours long
meant we could really immerse
ourselves in our projects, rather than
being confined to the structure and
distracted by the chaos of a normal
school day.”
-
51. “The biggest benefit of the class was
how small it was. It created a really
creative environment, one where we
could all develop our ideas freely and
have open conversations that pushed
our work forward.”
-Lindsey Huth
56. “After going on the NYC trip and touring
museums, talking to gallery owners, and
learning about studio practices, I realized
the people I met were once in my shoes
and are now living their dream.”
