update Calagator::Event 1250459448 World Usability Scavenger Hunt Roll back

description Celebrate the importance of usability on World Usability Day on Wednesday, Nov. 10th. To match Portland’s unique flavor, we have developed a unique urban challenge: The PDX UX Scavenger Hunt. With the theme of communications in mind, teams will comb the urban landscape to find examples of what works, what doesn’t, and why in the world around us. Teams will have from 12:01 am on Wednesday, Nov. 10th until 4 pm on Thursday, Nov. 11th to hunt for a list of communication-themed items. Teams will photograph each of their finds and then upload the pictures to a website so entries can be viewed in real-time. Teams can work together in their own neighborhood to allow hunting as time permits during the day. Start forming your team today! Prizes will be awarded at the no-host prize ceremony at 7 pm Thursday, Nov. 11th at Bridgeport Brewpub at 1313 NW Marshall Street.

description nil Season 4, episode 1 Get up early and work on your side projects with some like-minded geeks! TechCoffee is part running club, part knitting bee, and part hackathon. It's hard to work on all of your amazing ideas after a long workday, so instead we get up early. And we get together, so we have the reinforcement of other people up early, too. A couple hours a week can make a big difference. So bring your laptops and your work ethic to PDX TechCoffee. Or, if you can't be there in person, join us on IRC at #techcoffee on freenode. One commit a week is all we ask.

description nil November 30 | 5:30pm Living Room Theaters 341 SW 10th Ave Portland, OR 97205 Dinner Included Crush 'creativity block' and get inspired by a panel of Portland's creative Mar/Com leaders. You'll head back to the office Wednesday morning ready to put that inspiration into action. Creative block, we all get it. We hit walls, slip into ruts and take refuge in comfortable old habits. However, creative leaders break through stale ideas to tease out fresh and fabulous ones. And they make it look effortless. Wanna know how they do it? So do we. Join moderator Jerry Ketel, Creative Entrepreneur & Champion of Innovation, and a panel of Portland's creative community superstars as they get to the meat of how they make magic happen, even when they're running on nothing but four espressos and a dinner of stale Pop Tarts from the vending machine. Learn real world solutions to your real world creative problems: * Where do you find inspiration on demand to meet a hard deadline? * What do you think makes for an effective brainstorm process? * Who plays your "devil's advocate" and how do you know it's time to bring her/him into the process? * How do you choose which creative software to use for a project? * When you don't know where to start, where do you start?

description The Oregon IEEE Education Society Chapter is planning two evening meetings over the next few weeks: Date: Wednesday 10th November, 6-8pm Topic: Project Lead the Way (PLTW) & the University Location: ECE Department Conference Room (FAB-155) 4th Avenue Building (1900 SW 4th Avenue) Portland State University and (TBD) at OIT (Klamath Falls) and OSU, as required. Both programs will be run using DimDim for remote site participation. DimDim is the Oregon IEEE Section's system for on-line meetings. For details of DimDim participation, contact [email protected]. Abstract: PLTW is a national initiative to develop enthusiasm for engineering careers by experiential learning in middle and high school programs. There some impressive statistics of nationwide successes, with seven Oregon schools currently certified and more on the way. But what comes next? Can we as tertiary engineering educators maintain the momentum that PLTW creates, or will this new enthusiastic cohort be disappointed by their experience in university engineering programs. The evening will first provide an introduction to PLTW .... what is it, and how is it developing nationwide and here in Oregon? (Claude Kansaku, OIT Klamath Falls)? This will be followed by examples of high school PLTW activities (Tom Thompson, ODE), some observations of PLTW alums at university (TBD), and general discussion of (a) how tertiary engineering programs can take advantage of these developments, and (b) keep these students interested.
