MirandaMod unconference
MirandaNet are pleased to announce a new MirandaNet themed Unconference, MirandaMod. It is planned to hold these regularly at appropriate MirandaNet events and conferences.
This inaugural MirandaMod Unconference will give MirandaNet Members and guests an opportunity to share ideas about the use of technology for learning and to inspire others. This event should be exciting, stimulating and lots of fun and we look forward to seeing you there.
Purpose
MirandaMod is an informal, yet slightly structured unconference of like-minded educationalists to share ideas about the ways in which technology can be used to inspire others.
Fee
There is no fee. The event is free.
Time
Immediately after the formal World Ecitizens - Think.com project meeting. The UNconference is seen as a 'fringe' event to the the official more formal MirandaNet conference that precedes it.
Ethos
To allow all who wish to, to spread the word to a wider audience about work they have been doing or how they have been inspired. Commercial presentations will not be discouraged but will be grouped together so the audience 'knows what it is getting'.
Attendees
Membership of MirandaNet not necessary. The event is open to all who wish to attend: whether they be IoE students, MirandaNet Scholars, Fellows or Senior Fellows or any like-minded educationalists.
The event will be limited to 30 people, with priority being given to those attending the World Ecitizens/Think workshop.
Full details on the MirandaMod Page, and you can use this link to sign up.
Please (log in if you are already a wikispaces member or click join to create an account) then add your name - and any other relevant info blog, url etc - appropriate to list - also MirandaMod theme and title of talk (if speaking).
