This document discusses embedded user languages in product design. It explains that every designed product communicates how to use it through an implicit language. This language includes affordances, mappings, visibility, and feedback. It also discusses Donald Norman's book "Design of Everyday Things" and how he argues designers should include these elements to ensure users understand how to operate products intuitively. The document advocates that designers must recognize the embedded user language in their products to enable effective communication between the product and users.

The principles of user interface design are intended to improve the quality of user interface design.
• The structure principle: Design should organize the user interface purposefully, in meaningful and useful ways based on clear, consistent models that are apparent and recognizable to users, putting related things together and separating unrelated things, differentiating dissimilar things and making similar things resemble one another. The structure principle is concerned with overall user interface architecture.
• The simplicity principle: The design should make simple, common tasks easy, communicating clearly and simply in the user's own language, and providing good shortcuts that are meaningfully related to longer procedures.
• The visibility principle: The design should make all needed options and materials for a given task visible without distracting the user with extraneous or redundant information. Good designs don't overwhelm users with alternatives or confuse with unneeded information.
• The feedback principle: The design should keep users informed of actions or interpretations, changes of state or condition, and errors or exceptions that are relevant and of interest to the user through clear, concise, and unambiguous language familiar to users.
• The tolerance principle: The design should be flexible and tolerant, reducing the cost of mistakes and misuse by allowing undoing and redoing, while also preventing errors wherever possible by tolerating varied inputs and sequences and by interpreting all reasonable actions.
• The reuse principle: The design should reuse internal and external components and behaviors, maintaining consistency with purpose rather than merely arbitrary consistency, thus reducing the need for users to rethink and remember.
Visual Usability: principles & practices for designing great web and mobile a...Tania Schlatter
These slides are from a one-day tutorial presented at the UXPA 2013 conference. The class is designed to help product teams bridge the gap between applications that look great or are highly functional.
This class provides guidelines and examples about how to make visual design decisions that reinforce usability best practices and create interfaces that people value. Participants learn the characteristics of “visually usable” apps to know what to shoot for, and get an introduction to the visual design “tools” for digital apps – layout, type, color, imagery, and controls and affordances – and how to use them to create appealing applications people can easily understand and use.

The Autodesk Revit user interface comprises several screens, panels, and toolbars that facilitate project organization. For example, the Project Browser has places for structural plans, 3D views, and elevations. The Project Browser also contains more complicated aspects of Building Information Modeling (BIM) that include legends, schedules, quantities, and sheets.
Revit software’s UI also has a Quick Access toolbar at the very top of the ribbon, a status bar in the lower-left corner, visibility controls, and a comment area that shows you where you are in the model.

Employee work habits are radically diverging from historical patterns. Anywhere–the emergence of ubiquitous connectivity--is changing both where people work and how they collaborate. Remote working is becoming a prerequisite for workers. However, companies have been slow to react, resulting in lower productivity and isolated employees.
According to a Yankee Group survey, nearly three-quarters of workers believe allowing employees to work from home benefits the company. In addition, the majority of workers indicates that the ability to work from home is the single most important thing their company could do to increase their productivity. Employees are demanding flexibility, and the companies that fail to react to this trend will be at a severe competitive disadvantage in the war for talent.
This presentation covers the workforce of tomorrow–what employees' technological, social and professional needs will be and how to keep them connected. It includes:
* The pitfalls of and connectivity solutions for remote working
* Framework for mobilizing the workforce
* Recommendations for companies
How institutions make decisions to accept or reject technology innovation has been explored by academics with the assistance of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). Scenarios involving successful delivery of online learning from degree granting universities guide this literature review. It examines decision processes influenced by TAM methods combined with dominant research perspectives such as Self-efficacy Theory and Universal Technology Adoption and Use Theory. This paper analyzes which variables determine perceptions of usefulness, attitude and preferences and become frequent factors to influence typical TAM results. It identifies patterns about reliable predictors of outcomes (behaviors, aligning IT and preferences) for educational investments in learning environments, content delivery and teacher preferences. Adoption of technology is a complex, inherently social process guided by perceptions or misperception of value and ease of use. Thus, facilitating a decision to adopt devices, software or processes must address emotional, cognitive, and contextual concerns of all stakeholders.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.
