The OCW Consortium is having our annual global conference in Boston this year, from May 4-6. The planning committee is seeking students who are interested in open education and willing to blog/tweet about the conference and openness in education. We'll offer free registration to the conference and related events, and the chance to meet some of the forces behind open education around the world. Can you share with the SFC? For those who were excited about open education at the conference in NY, this is a great follow up. Here's the announcement: We’re seeking student volunteers who are passionate about free culture, are familiar with OpenCourseWare or open education and are interested in participating in the OCW Consortium Global 2011 meeting to participate in sessions and share observations and experiences through social media channels. We would like 5 people onWed, May 4; 5 on Thus and 2 on Friday. You can sign up for one or more days. In exchange for sharing through social media channels, you will get a day pass to the conference, and an invitation to all related activities. Interested? Go to at http://ocwcstudents.eventbrite.com/ take a ticket for the days that you’re available and answer a couple of registration questions. We’ll we back in touch once we’ve organized a schedule.
