NEW SMART EXPERIENCE CLASSES + WORKSHOPS:
<-- PETER MORVILLE COMES TO NYC --> After having the foresight to co-author the book "Information Architecture for the World Wide Web" in 1998, Peter is looking forward again to understand how we'll reconcile the timeless principles of design and organization with new transmedia models of interaction, co-creation, tagging, and user participation. His article "Information Architecture 3.0" [1] drew heated reactions, and soon he'll bring these ideas to New York in a workshop [2] to examine how integrating product development, information architecture, and interaction design can create good experiences and sustainable value (real Web 2.0 case studies that take the discussion beyond de.licio.us and Flickr platitudes).

This new class, taught by software aficionado and interaction designer Anders Ramsay, helps you break out of your rut and introduce you to a brave new prototyping future by reviewing the many tools available, illustrating when each tool is the right one, and working through hands-on prototyping together with you in class. Get a small taste of the class in this animated discussion, currently featured on our home page and on YouTube. http://smartexperience.org/ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4RdxSc-tMfo WHEN: November 6th & 13th, 6:30-9:30pm (Two Tuesday 3-hour sessions) COST: $290 (early bird price of $220 through Oct 19) CLASS DESCRIPTION + REGISTER: http://smartexperience.org/classes/prototyping-in-practice/ MORE ABOUT ANDERS: http://www.andersramsay.com <-- CLASS: "IMPROVING ONLINE WORK IN OFFLINE COMPANIES" --> David Wertheimer helps students think strategically and practically to improve Internet initiatives in offline-focused companies like financial services, retail, manufacturing, and business services.
