OpenEd20

Following the conference opening, there will be an open hour to "choose your own adventure" to prepare for the conference. These informal breakout sessions are intended to offer space to mentally prepare for the conference in the way that makes the most sense for you.

Check out the available options by heading back to the schedule.

Does your sense of adventure involve meeting new people? Then this session is for you! This session will leverage Zoom breakout rooms to facilitate a speed networking session. Here's how that will work:

• Click the yellow button above to join the Zoom meeting (shows up 10 min before start time to logged in users).
• The session host will start the meeting and go over the ground rules for the session. 
• The group will be split up into breakout rooms of 2-3 people for 5 minutes to exchange answers to the question "What is your superpower?"
• After the first breakout sessions end, the group will come back and split out again!

If your last name starts with the letter A-F, join this room when the introductory portion of the plenary session ends to participate in a breakout storytelling exercise.

When you enter, you'll be placed in a breakout room with ~8 other participants and have a chance to share your origin stories with each other. Each person has 5 minutes to reflect on the meaning of open education and answer the question "What brought you to where you are now?"

Within your group designate:

• A facilitator who will go first 
• A timekeeper who will ensure everyone keeps to 5 minutes
