Enter to win a copy of Drawing Ideas and the chance to have your design challenge turned into a video tutorial.

About a month ago, we posted a video flip-through of Drawing Ideas: A hand-drawn approach for better design, the new book by Mark Baskinger and Will Bardel.

Now we’re teaming up with UI Stencils and the publisher, Watson-Guptill, to give away two copies of the print book and a UI Stencil.

Here’s what you need to do to enter:

Tweet a design drawing challenge tagged with @UXMag and @DrawingIdeas. It could be a request to learn how to draw something you’ve wanted to illustrate, or a design challenge you’re working on right now that you need some extra inspiration or insight to complete. Keep it design related! No seamonster requests please.

You can also like UX Magazine on Facebook and post a message to the UX Magazine wall (not your own wall) with your design challenge.

Another way to enter: via email subscription by visiting UX Magazine’s email subscription page, filling out all of the fields, and clicking “Subscribe to list.” Once you’ve subscribed via email, you can enter the contest by emailing your design challenge to [email protected].

The contest deadline is January 3, 2014 and the two most interesting (and fun) submissions will be illustrated by Baskinger and/or Bardel and posted here in the magazine. One of the winners will also have their design challenge turned into a tutorial video by the authors. Both winners will receive a print copy of Drawing Ideas and a UI Stencil.

For researchers, AI tools are making the move from advising to building easier than ever. But the real obstacle was never technical. Meet the researchers who allowed themselves to create — and what the cost was.

Article by James Lang
The New Makers
  • The article says that becoming a maker as a researcher is less about learning new tools or skills and more about giving yourself a new identity, and that without fixing the internal permission structures that define your swim lane, even the most democratized AI tools won’t turn a researcher into a maker — you don’t have a founder; you have a frustrated advisor with a prototype.

Learn why authentic gamification is rooted in game genres rather than just collecting badges.

Article by Montgomery Singman
Gamification 2.0. Beyond Points and Badges: Designing for Players, Not Metrics. Chapter 5: Implementation
  • The article says that successful gamification is picking a game genre that fits your app’s core activities and user psychology, building satisfying intrinsic loops before adding extrinsic rewards, and iterating nonstop, and that without these foundations, you don’t have gamification; you have a progress bar that has a terminal point.

Reveal the three-part kernel that separates real problem framing from simple description.

Article by Morteza Pourmohamadi
A Problem Framing Kernel
  • The piece argues that if you don’t have these three core elements: broadly collecting raw material, connecting elements to surface real tensions, and committing to a point of view, you don’t have a problem frame yet; you have a description.
