______ An "unconference" is particularly useful when participants generally have a high level of expertise or knowledge in the field the conference convenes to discuss. So ESIP is the perfect place to unconference!
At the ESIP unconference, the agenda is created by the attendees through the first 2.5 days of the meeting. Anyone who wants to initiate a discussion on a topic can add ideas to the Unconference Board at Registration. Participants will also have dots included with their name badges. You can vote on your preferred sessions throughout the first 2.5 days. At lunch, before this session starts we will co-create the schedule based on session popularity and attendee input. There will be 5 minutes to move between session during each unconference block.
ESIP unconference sessions are led by the participant who suggested its topic; Sessions can also be geared around working on a particular topic, hack-a-thon, whatever you need at this point in the meeting, make it your session! In an effort to accommodate as many unconference sessions as we can, there will be limited access to A/V at this time. Please plan accordingly.
