Brief Abstract
Your Idea, Your Agenda, Your Choice
ELD is excited introduce a new session type this year: Donuts and Design. A quirky mix between a poster session format and an unconference approach, Donuts & Design puts you, all ELD attendees, in control of the agenda. Bring your ideas, your thoughts, anything you may want to talk about, or see, or hear more about.
Proposal
WHAT
ELD’s Donuts and Designs gives our attendees the power to drive the agenda; it is a combination of an unconference and poster sessions. At our opening on Thursday the 30th we will briefly go over the idea behind the Donuts & Design program, answer any questions you might have, and then help folks start brainstorming ideas.
HOW
There will be two rolling white boards available throughout the conference, one dedicated to Thursday’s DnD and one to Friday’s. Each board will be divided into squares where anyone can add their name and the concept/idea/demo/software/anything they want to talk. Other attendees will mark the items they are most interested in or want to hearing more about.
You can put your idea down for Thursday’s DnD, or Friday’s, or both! Immediately prior to the DnD session, event organizers will add room numbers to the different idea boxes. When you return from lunch prior to the 1:15pm DnD start, go check out the whiteboard. You are then welcome to visit whichever ideas interested you.
EXAMPLES
- Someone brings a VR headset to demo the new immersive application being developed
- An instructional designer brings in a test game they are working on for a class s/he is consulting on
- The Emerging Learning Design Journal is available to talk about the proceedings issue, submission requirements, etc…
- A faculty members demonstrates an online software designed to help students work online in groups.
- A presenter wants to talk about their topic outside of their schedule presentation
