Sessions Formats 2021
Since we are holding a virtual conference in 2021, we will be able to be creative with session types, lengths and tools we use.
While we will be offering most sessions over Zoom, we encourage to consider submitting sessions in other platforms such as Twitch, YouTube Live channel, Voxer, Discord, Fligrid, QiQoChat, WeChat, Facebook Live, twitter and Instagram. We can also do sessions and tours in or livestreamed from virtual worlds, games and other platforms. Feel free to propose others.
Here are the types and lengths of sessions listed on the CFP.
