20 Unconference

“Events like this really empower you as a student, professional and as a person. They take you out of your comfort zone, and this is something you can apply to your own personal and professional context. In my case I feel more confident now to present my findings of my assignments to my colleagues and the organisation I work for.” Alexandra Poradowska, previous student on the module

An informal gathering

The unconference, a more informal gathering that may not follow conventions and formats of conferences will take place at the end of a module. It will be all about what you have learnt on this module and how you critically and creatively engaged with it. You will be able to present the work you plan to submit for your assignment and receive valuable feedback from your peers and others external to the module.

The event will last up to 1.5 hours, hosted by 2 students and will be organised via Teams as a webinar. This will make registrations for the event easy. You will be fully supported.

Draft unconference programme

A draft unconference plan has been included here. Remember, this is a draft and an unconference presents many opportunities to do it differently.
