Gateways 2020 is scheduled from October 12 to October 23, with the tutorial and workshop track during the first week and the main conference track during the second week. This fifth Gateways annual conference is an opportunity for gateway creators and enthusiasts to learn, share, connect, and shape the future of gateways, while supporting and growing our community. Register for the conference by October 5.
The default time zone is Eastern Time. You can adjust it to your time zone on the right side of the schedule underneath the search box (or in the top bar, depending on the width of your screen).
“Learning Labs” may be one of several styles of impromptu learning:
Pop-up BOFs (Birds-of-a-Feather Sessions): Discuss a topic that you care about or propose a topic that is not covered by pre-scheduled sessions. This is a great way to find the other people at the conference who want to talk about a shared interest.
Mini Hacks: Teach or help others to use specific software, understand development techniques, or tackle other technical topics.
Coffee-Break Conversations: Carry on the energy from a post-presentation discussion or elaborate on a topic that comes up in a session.
We will have three, 50–minute periods devoted to your ideas. Each day, multiple online meeting rooms (through QiqoChat) will be set up for you to meet with others and discuss the topics of your choice. Here are the ways you can get involved:
Propose a topic that you’d be willing to host. (You don’t have to be an expert, just interested!)
Find a topic that interests you, and join a "room"!
You'll be able to submit your topics from now through the conference until 3pm Eastern on Thursday, October 22 (1 hour before the last Learning Lab time slot). Topics can be added to meeting rooms each day as long as they're submitted here at least an hour in advance of the Learning Lab time slot.
There is no review/selection process, just the willingness to convene a group.Submit your topic with this Google Formno later than 1 hour before the start of the Learning Lab you wish to host.
We’ll announce the topics in the QiqoChat space and in this Sched program.
