ANN ARBOR – Why is usability important with web sites? Let Dave Mitropoulos-Rundus explain it and help you count the ways. Come and experience live evaluations of a number of web sites that have been submitted by attendees at the next Hi-Tech Tuesday April 11 at SPARK Central.

Dave Mitropoulos-Rundus has designed user interfaces for hand-helds, kiosks, production machines, web sites, and IT software, and has conducted evaluations in the lab, on the web, in the field, and in the homes of consumers. He currently leads Compuware’s Corporate Usability and Interaction Design Group and Compuware’s 508/Accessibility Compliance Team. He is a Usability Professionals’ Association Board Member, a frequent presenter on usability methods and the web user experience, and is a chapter author of, “Design by People for People: Essays in Usability.”

Mitropoulos-Rundus will provides attendees with a rare opportunity experience live the interactions with the stakeholders and designers, and, time and bandwidth permitting. You can discuss your web site with him.

This interactive session will reveal both areas of excellence and opportunities for improvement, and it will focus attendees on what’s important for design or improvement of the web sites they are responsible for. Attendees will walk away with a clear understanding of what constitutes user experience issues and roadblocks. They will immediately learn about redesign options that may fix, improve, or enhance each web site experience.
