Hi Folks, Just a reminder that if we're going to have a BOF at SIGCSE, we have to submit by Monday 11/1. We've got some ideas down at:
http://teachingopensource.org/index.php/SIGCSE_2011 Was Fedora going to try to do a special session? In the case that we want to submit a formal BOF, I have outlined the information required for submission at: http://teachingopensource.org/index.php/SIGCSE_2011/BOF_Proposal The information in italics are the instructions which we should replace with real text. I've made a start on this, but won't get back to it for a day or so so feel free to edit. Heidi -----Original Message----- From: SIGCSE Member Forum [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Deborah J. Hwang Sent: Monday, October 11, 2010 10:17 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [SIGCSE-members] Reminder: SIGCSE 2011 Birds-of-a-Feather Have you ever thought, "There must be other people who have the same questions I have about this topic." Or "This topic is really cool, I'd like to share my experiences." Or even "How would I go about starting something new?" If so, then Birds-of-a-Feather may be the right place for you. In a Birds-of-a-Feather session, people with a common interest come together to share and discuss their experiences informally. Topics range from course material, to outreach programs, to the logistics of running a programming contest, etc. But in order for everyone to know what you want to talk about, you need to propose a topic for a Birds-of-a-Feather session. A BOF proposal isn't very long (maximum one page description, including the abstract), but it should convey what you think is interesting about the topic in a way that will make others think it is interesting, too. The deadline for submitting a Bird-of-a-Feather proposal is Monday, November 1, 2010. If you have any questions, please consult the conference website: http://www.sigcse.org/sigcse2011/ or email me. See you in Dallas! --Deborah Hwang, SIGCSE 2011 BOF Chair [email protected] ---------------------------------------------------------------- Dr. Deborah J.
