Events

• We are planning an ad hoc workshop and demonstration at RIT in late March or April or May 2008.

This will integrate, so far as as proposed, a Western New York Human Factors and Ergonomics Society (WNY HFES) local section meeting and a graduate class of Professor Keith Karn, Usability Testing. -- FGrose 00:00, 21 February 2008 (EST)

The WNY HFES meets at 5-6:30 pm in RIT Building 70 Room 2400. If we can arrange a venue, we could meet begining in the afternoon for a walk-in workshop, and perhaps test some ideas for shareing during the later meeting and class. Professor Karn's class meets on Wednesdays evenings from 6 'till 9:50 pm. So perhaps we could merge into that as well for the chosen evening.
