DESCRIPTION:Instructor: Amber Case&#13\;\n&#13\;\nCalm Technology is a fr
 amework for designing ubiquitous devices that engage our attention in an
  appropriate manner. The aim of Calm Technology is to provide principles
  that follow the human lifestyle and environment in mind\, allowing tech
 nology to amplify humanness instead of taking it away.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nTh
 e difference between an annoying technology and one that is helpful is h
 ow it engages our attention. This workshop will cover how to use princip
 les of Calm Technology to design the next generation of connected device
 s. We’ll look at notification styles\, compressing information into othe
 r senses\, and designing for the least amount of cognitive overhead.&#13
 \;\n&#13\;\nStructure and activities&#13\;\n&#13\;\nStudents will work i
 n groups to solve a series of design challenges\, including designing ne
 w products\, ‘calming down’ a complex ones\, communicating the principle
 s of Calm Technology across an organization and team\, and entering a pr
 oduct successfully into the marketplace.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nYou’ll learn how
  to:&#13\;\n&#13\;\nUse principles of Calm Technology to design the next
  generation of connected devices.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nDesign appropriate noti
 fication systems into both physical and software products&#13\;\n&#13\;\
 nCommunicate the principles of Calm Technology to your across your organ
 ization and team&#13\;\n&#13\;\nUse methods of Calm Technology to design
  technology for generations\, not seasons.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nEnter your pro
 duct successfully into the marketplace.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nWho is the worksh
 op for?&#13\;\n&#13\;\nThis workshop is for anyone that actively builds 
 or makes decisions about technology\, especially user experience designe
 rs\, product designers\, managers\, creative directors and developers. A
 ttendees are encouraged to have some background in user experience desig
 n and look at http://calmtech.com/ or Designing Calm Technology before t
 he workshop.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nBringing a laptop is not required\, as work 
 will be done on paper and in groups.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nWe have a limited nu
 mber of scholarships for our workshops. If you need an application\, ple
 ase send an email to mtc@pnca.edu with your complete name and contact in
 formation.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nIf you need academic credits for the workshops
 \, please contact mtc@pca.edu.\n\nTags: design\, development\, IoT\, tec
