Sampson urges a rethink of #UX in public services: less about optimisation, more about liberation. Current models centre ideal users, sidelining others. Time to design for complexity, cooperation, & shared experience not just efficiency. #LiberatoryDesign #HCID2025 #TonySampson #DesignJustice

Sampson stands beside a presentation slide titled “A New Paradigm: Critical-HCI.” He is pointing towards the screen while speaking. The slide critiques the traditional UX paradigm, raising questions like “Is the user the best starting place?” and “Who gets silenced?” It advocates for experiential liberation over optimisation, plural and cooperative experiences, and rejecting consumer centrality in favour of broader, social and cultural contexts.

Hassler urges designers to break out of the “ivory tower” & learn from fields like architecture, journalism, & craft. To move beyond traditional design thinking & collaborate across disciplines to tackle complex, real-world challenges. #DesignThinking #Interdisciplinary #HCID2025 #ChristophHassler

Christoph stands in front of a projected slide during his presentation, The slide displays six principles in bold text, each with a corresponding icon:
1. “CREATE CIRCLES, NOT LINES”
2. “PLAN WITH, DESIGN WITH”
3. “BE HUMBLE LEARNERS WHO PRACTICE DEEP LISTENING”
4. “CHOOSE CRITICAL CONNECTIONS OVER CRITICAL MASS”
5. “SEEK PEOPLE AT THE MARGINS”
6. “RECKON WITH THE PAST TO BUILD THE FUTURE”

Back to @citystgeorgesucu.bsky.social this morning for the #HCID conference. Last week’s Digital Transformation event was insightful and glad to have been invited to attend today’s event! Thank you 🙂 @stuartscott.bsky.social #HCID2025 #ParadigmShift

Two speakers are presenting at the HCID Conference 2025 in a lecture room. A man is holding a microphone and speaking, while a woman stands at a podium with a laptop. Behind them, two large screens display the conference title slide, which reads: “HCID Conference 2025 – Paradigm Shift. Steph Wilson and Sara Heitlinger (Co-Directors), Stuart Scott (Interaction Lab Manager).” The man is wearing a green T-shirt, and the woman is dressed in black.

Just read a manifesto on #GenAI in #education that gets it... grounded, critical, & collective 🙌 It’s not about hype, it’s about what really matters in teaching & learning. If you're working with #AIineducation, give it a read! doi.org/10.55982/ope... #AI #DigitalEquity #Ethics #HumanFirst

A mind map diagram titled "Generative AI in Higher Education: A Critical Manifesto". It branches out into five sections: "Purpose of Manifesto", "Language & Metaphors of GenAI", "Positive Potentials (Affordances) of GenAI", "Negative Impacts & Concerns (Challenges) of GenAI", and "Call to Action & Inquiry". Each section is represented as a clickable node, suggesting deeper exploration of the themes :)

Lots of talk at #Digifest25 about AI but little challenge around the realities- it’s the big tech thing, but I feel like we’re really in, or approaching a trough of disillusionment. How does the education sector navigate its way through this.

Stimulating start at #DigiFest25 today with insights on the #FutureOfLearning: AI-enhanced learning, personalised experiences, & modular credentials. Emphasis on the need for a structured #AI framework to prevent institutions from going "all over the place" Collaboration & shared resources are key!

AI => No Magic, but #Strategy! - Governance matters...Have the right policies in place. - Data is key; understand it to avoid risks. - Productivity gains, what’s next? Cost-cutting or reimagining how you work? #AI is here to stay. How will you use it best? #FutureOfWork #DigiFest25 #edusky #edtech

"AI is not magic dust; it’s a tool to augment human capabilities, not replace them." says #SanaKhareghani The key? Start with the challenge, not the tech!! - Identify needs - Assess if #AI is the right solution - Decide: build, buy, or partner ->Let's think through change. #DigiFest25 #FutureOfWork
