August in Vancouver? Hmmm… Open Education 2009 Call for Papers
Wednesday, March 25, 2009http://openedconference.org/call-for-papers
I know you have all been waiting with bated breath, well the wait is finally over - the Call for Papers for the 6th annual Open Education Conference (held for the past 5 years in Logan, Utah but this year moving to beautiful Vancouver BC, Canada) is now open.
I am pretty stoked about this, in no small part because I am helping to organize it with a few of my favourite people. I’m also excited because of some of the things we’re trying with the program; as you’ll notice in the CFP, we’ve introduced the notion of strands, the one I am most excited about being the StartUp strand. The Open Ed conference has never had any problem attracting leaders in the movement and encouraging a deep level of discourse around the topic, but I cannot imagine what it might have felt to be someone from a school not already immersed in OER to attend. Well I hope this strand (plus the number of great efforts currently underway to help people start their own Open initiatives) will attract those newcomers and catalyze another round of folks to start sharing openly.
So please, submit a proposal! Registration information is also coming quickly soon, I promise. Hope to see you on here in August. - SWL
