Greetings, campers! I’m Roger Travis of Literatures, Cultures, and Languages at UConn, and I’ll be running Dork Shorts at the plenary session Saturday morning.
Dork Shorts are two minute presentations given in an extremely informal manner, without any multimedia. Dork Shorts are wonderful for putting a project on the radar screens of a lot of people in a very short talk, for making a lot of people aware of something you have to offer (a resource, a program, yourself, etc.), and for seeking help with your current project!
At THATCamp New England 2013, presenters will give them in the opening plenary session Saturday morning. To give one, put your name and your title in the next blank row on the spreadsheet linked here, and I’ll line you up in some wildly efficient fashion when the time arrives!
Dork Shorts can also be a spur-of-the-moment thing, so I’ll be visible Friday evening and Saturday morning, ready to add folks to the spreadsheet myself. Please don’t hesitate to ask any questions about the above in the comments, either!
