Schedule

THATCamp PNW 2009 will be held on Saturday, October 17th, 2009, beginning at 10am in Wilson-Short Hall, Washington State University. The original THATCamp is a two-day event; on the first day there are four session slots with five to six sessions in each slot (meaning you would have difficult decisions to make!) while the second day has three session slots with three sessions in each slot. The two-day THATCamp thus had approximately 30 sessions for their 100+ participants. Since we are targeting a smaller group and will only have one day of sessions, the tentative schedule looks like this:

  • 10:00am – 10:30am: Registration/gather your refreshments on Wilson ground floor
  • 10:30am – 11:00am: Group organization of schedule in Wilson 13
  • 11:00am – 11:15am: Break
  • 11:15am – 12:30pm: Session 1—up to 3 sessions in this slot, depending on participants
    • Wilson 3: ARCHIVING/CURATION TOOLS
    • Wilson 6: GAMING
    • Wilson 13: PEDAGOGY/TOOLS
  • 12:30pm – 1:30pm: Break/Lightning Talks
  • 1:30pm – 2:45pm: Session 2—up to 3 sessions in this slot, depending on participants
    • Wilson 3: DIGITAL HISTORY
    • Wilson 6: VIRTUAL RELATIONSHIPS
    • Wilson 13: PEDAGOGY/TOOLS

The unconference format is one in which all participants typically stay for all sessions, from the group creation of the schedule to the wrap-up at the end. Complimentary coffee, water, and snacks will be available through the day, as will free Wi-Fi for all participants with WSU Friend IDs.
