One of the important areas that has undergone significant changes due to the epidemic and the quarantine measures caused by it is education. The need to quickly change the forms of conducting classes has become a real test for teachers of performing disciplines of a sports profile, and prompted them to search and experiment in the use of information technologies and technical means in the educational process. Since sports education in general and the teaching of academic disciplines that form sports skills have their own specific differences, the use of information technologies in this area has caused a number of problems that require separate detailed consideration. Distance learning has become mainstream in the context of global quarantine. Therefore, this problem inspired the consideration in the article of such issues as the methodology for preparing and conducting practical classes, as well as the use of information technologies and technical means such as video products, multimedia presentations, encyclopedias, simulators and games that are used in the educational process of students and will help it. improvement. The use of these technical means and information technologies contributes to the improvement of education in conditions of quarantine restrictions, as well as to the improvement of the perception of information through new technologies, methods and means. With the use of information technologies, students become more clear about the material of the disciplines of a sports profile.

Within the museum spaces and interpretation centers, one of whose main functions is the preservation and dissemination of historical resources, it is important to connect with the visitors in some modern, accessible, interesting and familiar communication forms. With this objective, it’s a key issue the introduction of new technologies that facilitate the tasks of illustrate, teach and interest the visitor. Through PLAYHIST experiment, Tecnalia aims the transformation of an interactive movie about ancient Greece in a historical multiplayer serious game, that, on the same environment of the Tholos in the Hellenic Cosmos of Athens (Greece), will seek to demonstrate that museums and cultural centers visitors learning can be increased through the introduction of historical content gamificacion concept. Within this experiment, a series of metrics that affect both the service and the user experience and learning will be defined. These metrics will be collected with both the software game components and questionnaires forms from the visitors themselves. Subsequent analysis of the data collected will give a clue about whether the concept of "learning by playing" is valid in this type of cultural centers.

The Impact

In recent years, development of new technologies designed to enhance user experience have accelerated, often being used in modern media including in films and games. Specifically, immersive experiences such as Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) have redefined how digital media can be delivered, encouraging us to interact with and explore our environment. Reciprocally, as the power of these technologies has advanced, the associated costs to implement them has decreased making them more cost-effective and feasible to deliver in a variety of settings. Despite the cost reduction, several issues remain with accessibility due to the knowledgebase required to generate, optimise and deliver 3D-digital content in both AR and VR. Here we sought to integrate an AR-based experience into a level 4 Biochemistry module to support the delivery of university lectures on protein structure and function. Traditionally, this topic would comprise 2D still images of complex 3D structures. By combining a breadth of subject-specific and technological expertise from across the university, we developed an AR-enhanced learning experience hosted on Zapworks AR platform. AR enabled full illustration of the complexity of these 3D structures while promoting collaboration through a shared user experience. Assessing the impact of the AR-experience via a formative test and survey revealed that despite only a modest increase in test performance, students overwhelmingly reported positively on the engaging nature and interactivity of AR. Critically, expanding our repertoire of content delivery formats will support the forward-thinking blended learning environments adopted across the higher education sector.

Retail enterprises are embracing new technologies to provide innovative services to customers and engage them. Unmanned retail stores offer a completely new seamless shopping experience for customers. Moreover, artificial intelligence (AI) technology and sophisticated customer behavior should be explored in depth to develop a smart system to serve customers. This study focused on achieving a sustainable user experience with a smart system installed in an autonomous store. The development of core functions and a rule-based knowledge set are regarded as the most important tasks in designing autonomous services. In the case study, the core functions were developed on the basis of the design science concept and the rule-based knowledge set was constructed using the action research approach. The developed smart system was optimized to understand in-store customer behavior by continuously observing and refining the user experience. The practical experience of this study provides insights into AI technology use in retailing and can guide enterprises in developing smart systems.

The Impact

Portals, and Service Oriented Architecture in general, simplify the process of delivering services to users. But this doesn’t represent a fundamental change to the user experience. Changing the user experience depends on business intent, and while Web 2.0 functionality is available for users today, corporate and government department practices are often not ready to embrace it. In fact the most effective uptake of new technologies may not be the company intranet at all, but an external company community hosted on MySpace or Facebook. This case study examines the experiences of delivering both strategy and implementations to Fortune 500-type companies and Australian government departments. It compares the experience of delivering web and pre-web services, and notes the impact of the global financial crisis on innovation, concluding with the observation that in this changing climate SOA remains part of the industry practitioner’s toolkit.

New technologies follow a predictable pattern of democratization over time. Specifically, a product that begins as merely useful over time often evolves into one that is usable, providing easy access to all functionality. If the technology survives the usability transition, it must become desirable. In this stage, the product evokes positive emotions from its users. This has been the case for the automotive industry as it moved from black colored cars driven by professional drivers and provided with its own toolbox to computers which initially required mathematicians and physicists to operate but which can now be operated by a four-year-old. This transition is now occurring before our eyes in healthcare, as medical diagnostic and treatment devices are taken out of the hands of specialized healthcare providers and placed into the hands, and homes, of patients. These useful devices now need to become usable and desirable. A successful transition will require the contributions of many disciplines, from environmental psychology, to user experience, from biomedical engineering to furniture design. It is exactly the kind of situation in which user experience thrives. This panel discusses the human capabilities, limitations, emotions and motivations which will determine whether this transition is a success. SynCardia’s Total Artificial Heart (TAH) Freedom Driver is an example of a life-sustaining medical device that is used by patients and caregivers at-home. To design the next generation Freedom Driver, SynCardia has implemented a user centered design approach. A research team performed contextual interviews and participatory design sessions with current patients, former patients, caregivers, and experienced clinicians. The research uncovered the following design considerations to be addressed in the design of the new Freedom Driver.
