Taxonomy is User Experience (Philadelphia, PA, USA)

The PhillyCHI February Meeting is Taxonomy is User Experience by Dave Cooksey. This presentation will approach taxonomies from the user’s perspective. It will begin by introducing a simple conceptual framework that communicates the centrality of taxonomies to user experience. Then, the presentation will cover:

• the virtues of thinking of taxonomy in terms of the user experience and not simply as data or classification
• ways of talking about taxonomy that clearly communicate its value to the business and help promote taxonomy as a practice
• how to craft a user-centric taxonomy by examining several e-commerce redesign case studies

By discussing taxonomy and metadata in terms of user experience, we will learn to communicate better with the business, inform our co-workers how to create more engaging user experiences, and bring the user into the taxonomy creation process.
