Abstract

ABSTRACT: This session is a moderated panel discussion among senior IA/UX practitioners from the greater Washington, DC area. Its goal is to challenge and inspire the ASIST research community. Among themes the panel will discuss are: 1) how research and theory inspires client project work – what types of research is needed, and what would be considered accessible and practical research; and 2) how IA/UX (including content strategy, taxonomy, governance, etc.) can change behavior, and help make a political and humanitarian difference.
