Topic:
~ Article Discussion ~

For this meeting, we'd ask that you read the selected articles ahead  
of time (don't worry, they're short articles, not books), jot down at  
least one discussion point about each article, then come prepared to  
discuss. Your discussion point can be a question, an example from your  
experience, or simply your perspective. We only ask that you keep your  
points constructive and not overly critical of the article or the  
authors. We will have two moderators that will help facilitate the  
discussion.

Thank you for your votes on the articles to read. The three "winners"  
are:

"Cultures of Prototyping", Michael Schrage
http://hci.stanford.edu/bds/10-Schrage.pdf

"Getting the Right Design and the Design Right: Testing Many Is Better  
Than One", Maryam Tohidi, William Buxton, Ronald Baecker, Abigail  
Sellen.

"Feature Richness and User Engagement", Jakob Nielsen

NH UPA meetings are always open to anyone who is interested in  
attending. Membership to the UPA is NOT required.

Hope to see you there!

Best,

Kyle
President, NH UPA
