Many factors contribute to the success or failure of building user experience, and many considerations when determining the approach to take. When and where will the product be used? Who is the audience? What business goals must be achieved? 

User experiences perform a variety of functions: they inform, they educate, they enable people to accomplish tasks. Good experiences do these things in a way that pleases users and meets their expectations. But user expectations are not always obvious or consistent. 

Users may not expect feedback for one interaction, but expect a dedicated page of feedback for a different interaction. Unraveling these kind of complexities is an important part of understanding (and meeting) user expectations. In this session, we’ll discuss how purpose and familiarity are two factors that work together to form user expectations and how to use these two factors to create good user experiences.

Schedule 

6:30 PM to 7 PM - Networking
7 PM to 8 PM -  Presentation
