SIAM's UX Design students in Softec's HQ in Milan during an office visit

2020 - UX Design Lessons at SIAM 1838
The lessons I gave in Milan's oldest professional school

The Society for the Encouragement of Arts and Crafts (SIAM1838.it), is Milan's oldest professional school and it has been involved in the training and promotion of useful professions for 180 years, actively engaging in addressing the needs of the labor market, offering concrete answers to the professional needs of the productive world. SIAM has always embraced a vocation for technology and innovation, recognizing their impact on the development of new "Arts and Crafts" and the opening of new markets that require highly specialized professionals.
As part of the IFTS training course of the SIAM I was called upon to design, manage and deliver a a 46-hour module in "User Experience Design - Methods and Tools to Design the Experience" within the course “Internet of robotic things. From automation to collaborative robotics: the new paradigms for future enterprises"
The course was structured as a Project Work and the students alternated lessons in presence with digital collaboration tool MURAL. The course had a duration of 46 in-class hours and it took me two months to design it and organize it, before the actual lessons with the students.
