UKeiG CPD Zoom Course: Search Usability
Wednesday, 26th April 2023 - 1 pm to 4 pm
Search is not just a box and ten blue links. Search is a journey: an exploration where what we encounter changes what we seek. But in order to guide people along this journey, we must understand both the art and science of designing search experiences.
This tutorial explores the fundamental concepts and principles of User-Centred Design for information search and discovery and demonstrates how to apply them to a range of practical contexts. Participants will learn how to differentiate between various types of information-seeking behaviour, develop an understanding of key dimensions within the search user experience, and discover how to apply UI design principles to commercial search applications. The session includes an opportunity to apply these skills to a range of practical design challenges.
Topics covered include:
• Models of human information-seeking behavior
• Principles
and practices of user-centred design
• Key dimensions of the search experience
• UX design patterns and resources
Who should attend?
• Intranet/web managers, information architects and search specialists
• Developers and managers of search projects
•
Anyone who has implemented or is planning to implement a search solution and wants to maximise the usability and effectiveness of their investment
