Forum One to Host UX Show and Tell

On Tuesday, October 27th from 6:30 to 8:00 Forum One will host a UX Show and Tell at our headquarters. We still have a few spots available. Please contact Chris Avore to RSVP.

What is UX Show and Tell

A UX Show and Tell is a small, informal gathering of UX practitioners to critique each others work and provide insight on how to better communicate ideas. It is all about being a better communicator and a better designer. Chris describes the UX Show and Tell as..

a casual get-together that’s all about the work. Show shortcuts. Ask what to annotate in a wireframe. Practice writing scenarios and user stories, and identify one from the other. Share resumes and portfolios. Get feedback from practitioners instead of stakeholders.

Format
Each presenter has about 10 minutes to show his or her work and share dialogue and get feedback from the group. The presenter will introduce the document to the group by:

• explaining what document/deliverable you've brought to share and a background on the project/audience/etc
• Explain whether you're demonstrating a unique way of communicating OR if you would like feedback on how to improve the documentation that you've brought
• If you'd like feedback, you will be expected to ask targeted questions, particularly if you need feedback on the document itself.

Chris held the first UX Show and Tell in September. You can read more about the first UX Show and Tell session on Chris Arove's Blog. Chris is also taking the UX Show and Tell on the road to Interaction 10. He will be leading a UX show and tell session during lunch on Sunday. If you're attending be sure to bring some work samples to get in on the fun! We hope that you will join us!
