Since 2004, the Experience Lab has been conducted as part of the UW-Madison’s pre-engineering Introduction to Engineering Design course. This one-hour lab provides an opportunity for each student to personally experience the impact that simple design changes can have on accessibility of everyday technology and other products.

A poster session about the lab, developed by J. Bern Jordan and Gregg Vanderheiden, was presented by Rebecca Perkins at the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society Annual Meeting in San Francisco on Sept. 29, 2010. For more details, see How to Present an Experience Lab.
