− | '''Howdy, Campers!'''
| + | Coming Soon! |
− | | |
− | Thanks for registering! & Welcome to CURATECamp SAA 2013, to be held Tuesday, August 13th, 2013 (10am - 4pm) in New Orleans (Location: TBD). We're very excited about continuing to build a SAA community around digital curation.
| |
− | | |
− | CURATEcamp is based on the BarCamp or "unconference" model. Here you'll find information on what you can expect of CURATEcamp, what will be expected of Campers, the overall theme for discussion topics, and some next steps for you.
| |
− | | |
− | To learn more about CURATEcamp, visit http://curatecamp.org/about for background on past camps. There is also a google group and wiki. Join in on the discussion & see what others have been talking about:

− | == CAMPING 101 ==
| |
− | | |
− | *Bring a computing device. Discussion is great, but demonstration and interaction is even better. Plus, there will be wifi provided at the preconference location.
| |
− | | |
− | *Get there a few minutes early to get situated and to grab your name tag.
| |
− | | |
− | *We’ll start on Tuesday morning by gathering together in one space, going around the room to introduce ourselves and to describe what we're passionate about (or want to talk about). There will also be some housekeeping announcements. After this, we’ll jump into discussion.
| |
− | | |
− | *We’ll follow the “open agenda” model, sitting in a roughly circular configuration. The meeting organizers will ask for proposed topics, recording them for a group vote, and then we'll chunk the discussions into 30 minute slots per topic. At the end of each 30 minute slot, we’ll vote on continuing the current topic or moving to the next one.
| |
− | | |
− | *After discussing a few topics for the designated amount of time, we'll take a break for lunch. Lunch will be on your own. We hope you use lunchtime to interact with fellow campers and keep the conversations going.
| |
− | | |
− | *The afternoon will be much like the morning. The main purpose is to connect folks who are eager to share their perspectives and hear those of others. People are encouraged to add topics to the list during breaks and lunch. Late in the afternoon, we begin wrapping up the discussion.
| |
− | | |
− | *For those who are interested, we can go to a local spot for a bite and drinks at the end of the day so we can discuss what we've heard and continue networking with peers!

− | == HOW TO PREPARE FOR CURATECAMP ==
