Live Sessions
If a prerecorded talk on YouTube attracts your attention, you can either leave a comment below the video on YouTube, or talk to the speaker during a live discussion. In essence we are using the concept of "inverted classroom" for a research conference.
How do the live sessions work?
There are 20 minute invited opening talks (live), followed by a 10 minute discussion.
Following the live talk there will be discussions of several prerecorded talks that participants can watch on YouTube before or during the conference mornings. Contributed speakers will start to recall the content of their talk (about 2 minutes). The following open discussion (questions, suggestions, remarks, new ideas) is chaired by a moderator.
Everyone is welcome to join the discussions! Just give it a try! The sessions will not be recorded!
