Description
Parallel Sessions
The Open Science Retreat always follows an unconference model. Except for the plenary sessions, all activities are optional.
Before the Retreat, participants are asked to propose topics for the unconference sessions. Teamwork topics will run through all sessions in the schedule that say "Unconference: Topic Groups" (instead of many small topics, we work on a few big ones).
On Monday we will decide together which teams will work on what, and who joins which team. The idea is not to follow one team lead, but to all be able to take up sub tasks that we are interested in. On Thursday the teams will present the outcomes of the work to all.
Participants can also propose to organise shorter sessions in the afternoons, or lead other (outdoor) activities, using an unconference board in the main room of the Retreat.
And lastly, participants can volunteer to join the mentoring programme, in which we will connect pairs of participants that can learn from each other.
Make appointments with mentors/coaches on Mattermost and on the main schedule display onsite.
Preparation & Communication:
The retreat organisers will set up a Mattermost channel for interaction with potential participants. Participants will also be able to post grant ideas in a template provided by the workshop leader in the Mattermost channel. (See the “Pre-work” section of the Timetable below for further details.)
