Proposal for a session in which you offer to lead a small group in a hands-on collaborative working session with the aim of producing a document, piece of software, or other made thing.

Proposal: Productivity web site

I’m interested in designing and building (or figuring out how to build) a site for tracking projects and productivity. This would be aimed at creative or scholarly writers, but I could see it being used in other ways. Productivity is a perennial problem for writers. Building the right set of tools, reminders, and a light social aspect to it could make this a useful tool for a lot of groups of users, including students.

Proposal: Digital Storytelling

I have experience with Sway and Spark as digital storytelling tools, as well as VSDC and Premiere, albeit not extensively. These tools, and many others, can be used to create richly illustrated digital stories along with audio and video, and sometimes interactive content. Stories can be fiction or nonfiction, they can be for teaching, sharing experiences, offering instructions, and much more. Join us, share the tools you know so we can build a list, and bring some media to create a digital story of your own.
