Building on last year’s session, this year’s TKF 2016 Unconference will take place on the second day of TKF. The Unconference focuses on discussion and dialog rather than presentation, getting people together to talk about topics of common interest or importance.
There will be two tracks this year, 10 minute lightning rounds and 20 minute longer discussions. [Update: Thanks everyone! — The response has been tremendous, and we have three tracks of 20 minute sessions! Thanks to everyone who proposed topics and everyone who agreed to facilitate sessions]
We are soliciting areas of interest — topics, questions, or even problems you would like to see someone speak to — as well as people interested in these areas to join the discussion. Topics will go up on the Techknowfile website in the next couple of days.
We are also looking for six people to help facilitate Unconference tracks, introducing the sessions and ensuring that talks being and end on time.
To suggest a topic, or speak to a topic, or to help facilitate, please email unconference.tkf@utoronto.ca.
The kick off meeting for this year’s Unconference will be on the second day of the conference (May 5th) at 2 pm in BA 2135, with the sessions running from 2:30-4:30 in the schedule below.
