One of the great things about Novare is the incredible people we work with through freelance projects and training. One group we work with is LibUX. This month, we kicked off and our sponsoring a series of webinars with LibUX. The first webinar was UX Quackery with Tim Broadwater. The archive is now available at: libux.co/ux-quackery and the slides are at uxquackery.com,
The Description
In the field of User Experience there are dishonest practices, misnomers, claims of special knowledges, and required skills that are touted as being common knowledge™ or best practices™. These biases or trappings are often encountered when working with various clients, project managers, product managers, designers, and even developers.
This webinar will focus on the prevailing quackery that exists in the field of UX when working with various stakeholders, performing research, or conducting user testing and what UX professionals can do to weed-out the quacks.
