Unconferences maximize the most important parts of conferences: connecting with peers and collaborating on exciting new projects. Simultaneously, they minimize the parts where they teach me things I already know. They are a wonderful opportunity to learn, meet collaborators, and start new projects. Unconferences like this one have ruined other conferences for me.
Matthew C. Makel, PhD
Associate Research Scientist
Johns Hopkins University School of Education
The Open Scholarship Unconference was informative, interactive, and fun and made it easy and comfortable to collaborate with other educational researchers. The unconference format provided useful workshops and sessions, but also allowed space for researchers to come together spontaneously to work on important issues. The conference was the perfect mix of experts and novices and I appreciated that everyone was willing to share and learn from each other. I am looking forward to attending again!
