Did it!  Slept till 8am! (I know it doesn't sound late, but I'm usually up and at it at 6am.  If you haven't been to the conference yet, do go.  The art exhibitions are amazing in their own right, and the whole set up is fab.  Well done Gwen.

Well done for getting this all organised - just spotted a mistake in the Google doc - many of the sessions are advertised as 'Friday 17th' rather than 'Saturday 17th' - a minor point, but might cause some confusion for somebody.

 

See you later!

Looking forward to attending some of the sessions and learning from my colleagues.

Hi Erika,

Let me know your SL name, then I can add you as friend and teleport you to where things are about to start on Friday.

Or try to search for my name and add me as friend, great exercise. :-)

Hello Heike,

I am really grateful for all the information, as this is the 5th session, I probably should say: where have I been all this time? and the truth is,  this is really all new for me  and I find it amazing.   I was waiting for this conference since I sign up  for  SL  just a few weeks ago,  so sure I will be there.   See you in-world and thank you again.

:D

Hi Erika, 

We will be publishing those links on each scheduled event.

Sometimes there will be up to 4 parallel sessions and each of them will have a different Adobe ConnectPro room and you will find each link mentioned there.

Also of course the SLURL. Right now we are also still waiting for a temporary conference island to finalize all of the SLURLs. It is a bit difficult to manage on such a short notice but our previous idea of having the sky conference plattform cross both our islands didnt work out because sound does not travel across to another sim in case of different ownership.

Hence, we ordered a temporary island - HOPING very much, that sound will work. 

Looking forward to you attending!

Well, this is going to be my first experience attending a conference at SL, so excited to know how it works and understand better the possibilities of education on virtual environments.  As my zone connection is really bad, an someone tell me the link o the way to attend the conference outside SL, using adobe connect? This would be my back up plan, just in case.  :)

Now that's a refreshing start for the upcoming new school year!

Hi Karelia,

Great keywords here, may I chip in our volunteer form which is brand new! and which lists all of the many jobs we have on offer.

We really, really appreciate some helping hands.

Thanks to Heike for all this coordinating .. I'm really looking forward to the event!

In the middle of serious games in situated learning, please make sure you make time for some serious partying on Saturday 17th September 1.30-4.30 SLT.  The ever-resourceful, imaginative and artistic Mary Roussel is building a lovely scene for us where we can socialise (humouring me by giving it a 'pink' theme ... we're calling it 'Planet Pink' in the spirit of Randall's 'Club Jupiter' and it will be available for any of you to use as a holodeck scene with your groups later!). 

There are three ways in which anyone can help us:

(1) We'd like to have some 'freebie' boxes available .. so if you have any copy/mod teaching tools, party clothes or party fun gadgets to liven up any party, please pass them to Karelia Kondor and she's add them to the boxes! 

(2) Also, if you'd like to help out on the 'greeting/welcoming' aspect, let me/Karelia know! 

(3) Let's make the music international, loud and singalong. Please pass me/Karelia any requests!

Thanks!

 

(and one day I may write a sentence without any exclamation marks .. you never know!)
