CarpentryCon @ Home Proposal Repository

Welcome to the CarpentryCon @ Home Proposal Repository! 🌸

This repository provides a location to add all proposals for CarpentryCon @ Home as GiHub issues. Please note that The Carpentries Code of Conduct applies both to this event and the current repository.

More about CarpentryCon @ Home:

We can’t meet in person for CarpentryCon 2020, so we’re bringing CarpentryCon to you! CarpentryCon @ Home is an online series of events happening in July and August, sharing some of the great content that was planned for CarpentryCon 2020 in Madison, WI including keynotes, breakouts, lightning talks, and socialising.

In this repo, we invite you to add your proposal of a session, details for which is provided below.

Instructions on the submission process

Here are the steps for submitting a proposal:

  1. Click the New Proposal issue template tab in this repository
  2. You should see a selection of issue templates - choose the "New Proposal" option and click the "Get Started" button.
  3. Fill the template with your reponses and proposal.
  4. Since this is a public repository, it will be open for anyone to see and comment on. Therefore, you can use your pseudonym if you prefer. Adding email here is optional, but please add other ways to contact you (for e.g. The Carpentries Slack channel, or your Twitter account).

What are the different kinds of sessions that can be proposed?

We have listed a few ideas of session types that include breakout discussion, skill-up, social event, informal meetup, panel session, resource development sprint or other. We encourage designing a proposal that invites and welcomes participation from a diverse community of learner, educators, instructors, maintainers, researchers, developers, artists, and other stakeholders online.

Because we would like to make sessions available for those who cannot attend, please indicate if there is the possibility to record a video from the session and/or create a blog post summary.

See the definition of each event below:

Below you will find the days/time Lightning Talks will take place. Please be sure to indicate which session you would like to participate in.

What does the "Issue Template" look like?

Here is an example of the issue template:

When a comment starts with "<" followed by "!--" and ends with "-->", it will not appear in the final issue.

The different text fields start with "###", which can be filled by replacing "WRITE HERE".
