Featured Seminar: The Visual Design of Web Applications: Creating Usable and Beautiful Designs
Date: November 1, 2006 — 1pm ET / Noon CT / 11am MT / 10am PT
Many development teams are neglecting a critical part of web application design: the Visual Design. The visual design of web applications is not just the “fluffy stuff” or something that teams can delay until the end of the development process.
When development teams focus their efforts on the visual design of their applications, they create web applications that are usable, visually pleasing, and influence how users feel about the design and the organization behind it.
In this seminar, you will learn about:
Emotional Response: influencing how people feel about your application through the visual design. Hagan will discuss how to craft the intended emotional response from your users. You’ll find out why beauty in web applications is important.
Common Design Mistakes: Hagan will show you where designs typically go wrong in the presentation of tables, forms, and other types of information in web applications.
Visualizations: Hagan will show examples of ways that visual designs can improve and enhance usability by giving users a new way to think about solving problems and a tool for getting there more quickly.
Dynamic Queries: Hagan will show you how development teams can take advantage of Dynamic Queries as their data sets grow larger.
Hagan will share her experience with these issues, provide practical, useful tips that you can start using right away, and get you thinking about the future of visual design, too. The 90-minute seminar will include an extended Q&A where you’ll have the opportunity to ask Hagan about your specific challenges.
A week before the presentation, you’ll receive instructions on attending the seminar and the seminar materials.
We’re expecting this seminar to sell out and space is limited. Sign up today.
