Workshops – and all other events besides the main talks
tldr:
Congress is made by you! Please add your workshop. A “workshop” is just something, that happens at a special time and place, but not in one of the big halls.
As you may have read in the blogpost on assemblies this congress will be even more community driven than it used to be. One step towards this is allowing you to hold your own sessions on whatever topic you think is important. We kindly ask you to prepare “workshops”.
That does not mean, that it has to be something with hands-on and making – sure it could be! But workshops can also be a gathering of a project group or discussing a special topic. They can be contests or games, activities outside of the building or even small talks, a follow-up-discussion on one of the “big talks” or any other topic that happened recently – or something completely different that you think deserves a place at the congress!
This year we will generate one big schedule of all those events, so that you can see everything that happens on one page. This is done using the semantic features of the wiki – so it is very important that you use the forms properly when you add your workshop.
For workshops we will have four fixed places, and maybe some more dynamic space at your assembly. The rooms are:
- workshop 12, with 60 square meters
- workshop 13, with 78 square meters
- workshop 14, with 60 square meters
- and the speaker’s corner, that is an open space close to hall 1 and the main foyer.
Please refer also to the wikipage to find more details on how to add your workshop.
