So, Moosecamp is back (and with the blessings of the organizers ;-) but in slightly altered form this year.
The keyword with Moosecamp is PARTICIPATORY. That's what makes it different from the regular conference sessions - we're looking for sessions that really engage all the participants, be it in hands on exercises or vigorous dialogue.
It looks like, all being well, we'll have access to 2 spaces during the Friday (in parallel to the main Conference); a classroom-like setting (room for 30 or so, like last year) and hopefully also a space in the atrium. We're hoping that, if there are some hands-on or maker-type sessions (of which we've already got a few possibilities) that these might happen in the atrium space, and more discussion-oriented sessions in the classroom-style space, but as with everything moosecamp, it's up to us all to decide, and things are flexible. Please add a note below if you have a session idea (and feel free to link off to more details if you have them) and closer to the date we can start figuring out how the day might look.

Key Takeaways: Close to the Student Experience
|
Andrew Kumar, Jamil Rhajiak
|
This presentation will introduce Key Takeaways and insights
from communicating with faculty, staff, and students. Ever
wondered how students engage with their university or college?
How students retain information and what they do with it?
By opening a conversation about blogging (including video
blogging) and social media channels we aim to explore
how social media presence and activity can augment and
minimize the resources required in building meaningful
and lasting social engagements.

Build Your Own PirateBox: Community-sourced webradio w/ a low-power FM radio mod
|
Grant Potter, Scott Leslie
|
Come and learn more about the PirateBox(http://wiki.daviddarts.com/PirateBox) that will be running throughout NorthernVoice. We're hoping for maybe a short general session (30 mins or less) in the "talkie" space, followed up by a longer hands-on session for people who want to learn the specifics of how to build one themselves. Piratebox components will be available for tutorials.

Doing a Photo/Video/Whatever-a-day project |
D'Arcy Norman, et al... |
How do you motivate yourself to do one of these darned projects? Why would any sane person do this? How do you keep going? Why? What's in it for me? But, who wants to see all that crappy stuff? Do these questions ever stop? Seriously, more questions? (I've been doing a 365photos project since 2007 - along with lots of other folks) |
