			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I read an interesting article about Mobile Technology for Healthcare, showing the importance of mobiles in connecting people easily on these days. In my opinion the mobile will help a lot of patients, monitoring, using dedicated softwares for that. Some diseases have to be monitored by the doctor day by day or needs to be one time per week, month or year. For that the patient has to do new examinations and a new interview about the treatment (the doctor wants to know if the patient is doing everything correct). The mobile softwares can help the doctor and the patient to monitor some actions, habits and simple exams (pressure, weight, heartbeat and others), only inputing this values or results on the software and then sending to the doctor, generating a report showing the patient progression or not.</p>
<p>My father and my mother are doctors, so i asked them, what they think about it. My father is a Dermatologist doctor, and for him it would be nice to monitor some specific diseases, because most of the diseases he treats are very simple cases, so its not necessary a high level monitoring. My mother is a Hematologist, for her a mobile application would be great to monitor leukemia and anemia patients, because a part of treatment consist in a specific diet and simple examinations day by day, so it would be great if she can have these informations very fast by the patient all the time.</p>
<p>It would be great if the Mobile Technology continues to invest on this area, because it will help a lot in some diseases treatment. We hope so.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Giselle Rossi</strong> from INdT Recife sent to me a very interesting article by Jeff Patton, about “mapping features”. She developed something new, based on this article to organize the backlog, trying to improve the understanding about the main features and goals of the project, in a simple way and clear for the client, with the team design and developers.</p>
<p>Following this, we took a project in a concept phase, to apply this idea. Then, we worked on the features, where became more clear and easier to understand, while doing a traditional backlog, would be confusing and slow to develop, needing to be updated all the time.</p>
<p>Developing the Story Map, i was thinking like a easily user, I do not know why, but the ways appeared quickly, I think it&#8217;s because we write a short texts with the features ideas, while in traditional backlog the ideas just run, because you will need to think to much to build a sentence.</p>
<p><strong>The traditional backlog is applicable, but not in a concept phase!</strong></p>

<p><strong>INdT e Fucapi realizam evento para comemorar o Dia Mundial da Usabilidade</strong></p>
<p>O Dia Mundial da Usabilidade, que será comemorado no dia 12 de novembro de 2009, foi criado para assegurar que os serviços e produtos importantes para a vida sejam acessíveis e mais simples de usar. “Por que isto não funciona direito? O que eu devo fazer com isto agora?”.  O Dia Mundial da Usabilidade promove o valor da engenharia da usabilidade e do design centrado no usuário, além da crença de que cada usuário tem a responsabilidade de solicitar o melhor funcionamento das coisas. A UPA (Usability Professionals’ Association) está fazendo isso para encorajar, organizar e patrocinar eventos locais ao redor do mundo, todos ocorrendo simultaneamente em 12 de novembro de 2009.</p>
<p>Em Manaus, o evento será realizado no Auditório da Federação do Comércio de Bens, Serviços e Turismo do Estado do Amazonas (Fecomércio-AM) &#8211; localizada na Rua São Luís, 555, Adrianópolis (entre a Paraíba e Recife) &#8211; e está composto por uma rica programação, entre 8h e 18h, que inclui mini-cursos, palestras e mesas-redondas.</p>
<p>O Dia Mundial da Usabilidade é para todos que um dia se fizeram estas perguntas e é focado em despertar a preocupação e a visibilidade da engenharia da usabilidade e do design centrado no usuário. Atualmente é organizado por voluntários e coordenadores locais em todo o mundo, seja um profissional de usabilidade ou somente um usuário entusiasmado (ou frustrado), cada participante contribui para “fazer a vida mais fácil”.</p>
<p>A importância da usabilidade não é trivial, está conectada às coisas importantes do nosso dia-a-dia tais como educação, saúde, transporte e segurança. Ferramentas, produtos e sistemas usáveis são mais efetivos em ensinar os alunos. Profissionais de saúde podem ser mais confiantes com ferramentas confiáveis e mais fáceis de entender, provendo melhor qualidade no cuidado com a saúde dos pacientes. Instituições Governamentais podem confiar em máquinas de votação fáceis de usar e de entender para garantir eleições mais democráticas e honestas. Tecnologia usável faz a diferença para todos, em todos os lugares ao redor do mundo.</p>
