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.
