Evening Kraków, GO-GN calling!
Preparations are well under way for the fifth GO-GN seminar in Kraków on April 10th & 11th, just ahead of the Open Education Global Conference 2016. Nine PhD candidates have been funded to attend the seminar and present their research. The provisional schedule is shown below; as in previous years, most of our two days together will be taken up by students’ presentations and the opportunity to receive feedback from peers and experts, but we have also arranged time to discuss plans and expectations for the network. If you are around, feel free to drop in (we’ll be at the Novotel Kraków Centrum), meet some of the GO-GN family members, and hear about the exciting research they are conducting in the field of open education/OER.
