U-Camp Planning - Bringing Design and Development together to create a better user experience.

The U-Camp is fast approaching and so we need to start planning.  Here are the latest UCamp plans.  Mark your calendars to come and participate!over.  Thanks to all who participated!

Notes from one of the collaborative activities:
LMS Brainstorming Ideas

Overview

The JA-Sig U-Camp is an opportunity for members of the User Experience (UX) community to get together in a face-to-face environment and share our Design and User Interaction knowledge with interested members of the JA-Sig community.  We can discuss different User Experience techniques and ideas and look for ways they can help solve design problems in the JA-Sig community.  We would also like to have the JA-Sig community let us know how they would like UX to be more involved in community projects.  By the end of the U-Camp, we hope to have fostered a better understanding of User Experience and how it can be used in the JA-Sig community to better solve design problems keeping end-users' needs in mind.
