NordiCHI 2012 Workshop on UX Goals: "How to Utilize User Experience 
Goals in Design?"

October 14^th , 2012: Copenhagen, Denmark

In conjunction with NordiCHI2012 (http://www.nordichi2012.org/)

Info on the Workshop: https://sites.google.com/site/uxgoals2012/

Deadline for submissions (3-6 page position papers): August 10^th , 2012.

******************************

How to facilitate designing for user experience? To design technology 
that is capable of enabling, promoting and/or demonstrating specific 
user experience we see it important to set /experiential goals/ for the 
design. Such /goal setting/ approach is receiving increasing attention 
as an approach in design and development of interactive systems -- not 
only in relation to everyday consumer technology, but also in work 
related systems.

This full-day workshop aims to bring together practitioners and 
academics to share knowledge and lessons learned on and explore

/*how to identify, define, use and draw inspiration from user experience 
goals /

throughout the design and development process.

*******************************

The questions driving the workshop include:

*What constitutes a good UX goal? What aspects affect the suitability 
and use of UX goals in different design cases and phases?

*How UX goals can be identified and framed? How to involve users or 
other stakeholders in defining the UX goals?

*How to make use of the UX goals in various design and development phases?

*What is the potential and what are the limitations of the UX goal 
setting approach?

*How to make using UX goals as an approach suitable and useful for 
design and development practices and what is the related research agenda?

*********************************

Topics of interest for position papers:

*Case studies, or practical examples of projects or products that have 
utilized UX goals or experience-centered design drivers

*Approaches, methods, and techniques that make use of UX goals or 
experiential design drivers in design and evaluation

*Theoretical considerations on UX goals and experience-centered design

*Accounts on challenges and issues that emerge when using UX goals in 
design and development

We invite researchers, designers, and UX practitioners interested in the 
workshop themes to participate in the workshop.
