CHIFOO Workshop: Fieldwork 4 Human Computer Interaction (1 of 4)
Roll back
| description |
Fieldwork for Human Computer Interaction: A 4-Part Workshop on Ethnographically-Informed Fieldwork
Sara Bly and Françoise Brun-Cottan
A growing number of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) researchers and practitioners use the results of fieldwork to guide the design and evaluate the user experience of interactive systems and technologies. Why? Because data about real people in real situations spurs creativity and innovation around practical challenges, resulting in more useful and usable artifacts.
Fieldwork for HCI typically consists of firsthand observations made in the naturally occurring environment of use (as opposed to studies performed in a controlled environment). Many techniques are adapted from anthropology – particularly ethnography.
As the mobile app and manufacturing industries grow in Oregon, UX designers are increasingly recruited from out-of-state. The Computer-Human Interaction Forum of Oregon - CHIFOO - recognizes a local need for more basic training in this area.
Workshop Format
This practicum is a new offering by CHIFOO, separate from the popular monthly guest lecture series. Developed with industry experts Sara Bly and Françoise Brun-Cottan, this unique pilot program serves as a first test model for future educational programs by CHIFOO.
To conduct fieldwork well, the researcher needs the knowledge, ability and access to observe the activities and complexities of people within the context of their day-to-day pursuits. This makes it difficult to practice in a classroom-only or online environment. The methodology is best learned by apprenticeship and experience.
Each session builds on the prior one. Participants are expected to attend three private classroom sessions, to complete group assignments in between, and to ‘report out’ on the experience in teams at the last session, an open CHIFOO event. Sessions will be held:
Sunday, October 5, 12-4 pm
Wednesday, October 15 6-9 pm
Wednesday, October 29, 6-9 pm
Wednesday, November 12, 6-9 pm
Who Should Participate?
The practicum is tailored especially towards locals who seek a better command and understanding of the skills utilized by User Experience Analysts, Design Engineers, and Interaction Designers.
To make the learning experience as rich, collaborative and personalized as possible, the # of participants is capped at 16. Group exercises are designed to be completed in teams of 2-4.

Presentation:
Too many threats not enough time? This is the challenge for security professionals today, as we become inundated with data generated security devices, sensors, applications and remote feeds we can easily become numb to what our data is trying to tell us and often end up ignoring critical warning signs of compromise. This presentation will attempt to put some method to our madness and explain how to apply threat intelligence tools and data so that it is more than just speeds and feeds, but a legitimate resource and ally against increasingly well-resourced and cunning adversaries.
Presenter:
Ken Westin of Tripwire is a security analyst and "creative technologist" with 14 years’ experience building and breaking things through the use/misuse of technology. His technology exploits and endeavors have been featured in Forbes, Good Morning America, Dateline, New York Times, The Economist and has won awards from MIT, CTIA, Oregon Technology Awards, SXSW, Entrepreneur and named in Portland Business Journal's 2013 "40 Under 40".

PADNUG October: Core JavaScript Concepts
Roll back
| description |
The outstanding **Jeremy Foster** is hopping down from the Mother-ship in Redmond to visit this month!
There’s as much excitement around JavaScript these days as there is apprehension! You know the feeling. You remember trying to find DOM elements and do something meaningful with them and that dang JavaScript was failing silently, it wasn’t triggering your alert, and it was causing hours of mumble cursing. Well, JavaScript has grown up a bit since then. Many know enough to get in trouble, but are convicted that it’s high time to learn more.
In this course, we’re going to pass right on over the easy stuff – variables, control structures, and the basic concept of a function, and we’re going to dig right in to what makes JavaScript unique and powerful and show you why it’s just about everywhere! We’ll look at JavaScript environments; the developer tools and console; basic DOM manipulation; object notation; scope, closure, and the modular pattern; and the promise pattern.

Agile and Kanban are used throughout the organization - this is not where Urban Airship started with their agile implementation but rather where they settled.

We'll have pizza & beer starting at 6pm, so stop by early if you want to have dinner and socialize before the presentations.

# Thanks to New Relic for providing the venue and beer, pizza & snacks this month!

ARRIVING BY BIKE? Cyclists are welcome to park their bikes in the New Relic office. Bikes are not allowed in the building lobby, however, and must use the freight elevator. To get your bike up to the 29th floor, enter the building's parking lot by going down the ramp at 5th and Pine. Go past the booth -- no need to pick up a ticket -- and turn right. Go straight until you almost run into the elevator lobby, then go right again. On the back side of the elevator block you'll see a beat up pair of double doors marked "freight elevator." You can get up by buzzing in with the intercom, and saying you're here for New Relic. Ride on up to the 29th floor, you'll easily find the bike parking.
<em>ABOUT THE GROUP: The Portland Ruby Brigade, also known as pdxruby and pdx.rb, is a user group for Ruby programmers in the Portland, Oregon area. The group welcomes all programmers interested in the language and its implementations, tools, libraries and frameworks, such as Ruby on Rails. The group has been meeting since August 2002 for presentations, demos and discussions. Every month 35-75 people come together to share their knowledge, projects and enthusiasm for Ruby. If you'd like to present or have a topic you'd like discussed, please post to the <a href="http://groups.google.com/group/pdxruby">mailing list</a>. The group usually meets on the first Tuesday of the month, "Ruby Tuesday" -- see you there!

UX Book Club PDX is talking about A Web For Everyone by Sarah Horton and Whitney Quesenbery
Roll back
| description |
Come along and join us to talk about [A Web For Everyone](http://rosenfeldmedia.com/books/a-web-for-everyone/) by Sarah Horton and Whitney Quesenbery, which is a very useful book on accessibility and universal design. Additionally, we're going to be joined by Whitney on Skype to discuss creating digital content for everyone, including people with disabilities. Accessibility is a huge subject, and one that is frequently overlooked by designers and developers, even though there are laws covering the rights of people (for example, employees and members of the public) to be able to access information.
Come along with any of your team to discuss the important topic of accessibility and how it's not something you tack on at the end of a project, but something that can improve the usability of a product for everyone.
For information on where to buy the book, and a limited-time 30% discount code, see the post in our Google Group.
If you haven't finished reading the book, please still come along and join in the conversation. |

Startup Coffee Hour! The Pop-Up Startup Accelerator
Roll back
| description |
<b><a href="http://www.meetup.com/StartupHappyHour/events/208969632/">PLEASE RSVP HERE</a></b>
Startup Coffee Hour! reinvents the Startup Accelerator as a two-hour flash mob at a coffee shop. Join us at Rocking Frog Cafe, the Victorian coffee shop on Portland's eastside.
<b>What's going to be happening?</b>
Dropping by, hanging out, demoing your app, discussing the latest tech news, pitching your concept, meeting new people, offering feedback to your peers, and drinking lots of coffee.
<b>How does it work?</b>
Our startup accelerator is free and open to anyone who wants to come. We don't take any equity; we don't charge any fees. There's no structure or agenda, and the entire program lasts two hours.
<b>No structure? So where do I begin?</b>
If you're unsure what to do when you arrive, start by asking people two simple questions: "What are you working on?" and "How can I help?

Startup Coffee Hour! is like a tavern in an RPG: you can wander around the room and explore freely; you can walk up to anyone and talk to them; you can reacquaint with past companions and team members; you can sit at a table and share a laugh with elders, artisans, and heroes; you can form adventuring parties that may last a lifetime — and that's just the first 15 minutes. <a href="http://www.meetup.com/StartupHappyHour/events/208969632/">Learn more.</a> |
