MAACE UX Community
The MAACE UX Community is composed of UX researchers and designers from Marine and Civil Aviation projects. The community meets every two weeks on Wednesday mornings. Meetings use one of the following formats:
Knowledge share on best practices: A participant presents best practices that we have, or would like to adopt, in MAACE for solving common UX challenges. They may then lead a discussion or activity on the topic.
Design feedback session: A participant presents a current work item to seek feedback from the UX community. (Please see MAACE Design Feedback Sessions)
Demo or tutorial: A participant gives a demo of a tool or technique they are using and shares how this is impacting their project.
Webinar viewing session: The community gets together to watch an educational webinar and discuss what they have learned.
Lean coffee: This is an informal meeting designed to allow participants to set the agenda as they go. Attendees choose what they want to discuss by voting on suggested topics.
Social: A few times a year, the community will host get-togethers like lunches, games and activities to get to know one another better and celebrate events.
MAACE UX Community meetings are facilitated by the UX Enablement team. Our goal is to foster a community that encourages collaboration, inspires continuous learning, and values curiosity. The UX Enablement team can be reached through the UX and Service Design channel on Teams.
