World Useability Day is on 13 November. The theme for this year is
transportation. For information go to:

This is a good site to bookmark for VCE Design and Technology Unit 4
Outcome 1.
Teachers could design activities around the theme of product useability
on this day, for example, analyse products that are well designed in
terms of meeting the needs of the user/s. Conversely, products that are
poorly designed could be discussed.
