Plenary Talk P4: Design Work for Key Information Sets

Note that this talk has been replaced by a talk on Key Information Set Data which will be given by Andrew Oakley.

Title:
Design Work for Key Information Sets
Session Tag:
#P4
Time:
Tuesday 19th June 2012 from 11:00-11:45
Speaker:
Stuart Church, Pure Usability Ltd.
Abstract:

Key Information Sets (KIS) are part of a HEFCE initiative to provide comparable sets of standardised information about undergraduate courses. From September 2012, universities and colleges will be expected to publish these information sets on their web-sites. In this talk, Stuart will outline the user-centred design (UCD) process that was used to design the KIS and discusses some of the design challenges that were faced. In addition, he will consider some of the design approaches that can be used to make online 'infographics' more effective.
