(Mid-July) Hackathon Workshop Workshops #0

OBJECTIVES

• Share Hackathon experiences from multiple perspectives
• To work together on structuring and planning for the Hackathon Hackathon in the First and Second Hackathon Workshop Workshops
• Keep the first event relatively small and filled with people we know and trust to maximize Tippi’s facilitative skills
• To explore more about various aspects of Hackathon Workshops and possible approaches that could be beneficial to Hackathons through workshop presenting sessions on particular topics

AGENDA
Workshops Facilitator: Tippi Fifestarr
Introduction: Tippi explains the objectives and the sequence of the workshop to the participants
Workshops:

1. Guest-of-Honor have time to share their stories (10 minutes) as a welcoming opening ceremony
2. First workshop (40 minutes) is Shaping Hackathon Workshop Artifact Group (SHWAG), to broadly shape the scope of the Mid-August Hackathon Workshop Workshops, and figure out what kind of swag we can offer for the Mid-September Hackathon Workshop Workshops (so that we can apply for the budget and begin earlier)

• Identifying current and prioritizing hackathon difficulties
• Brainstorming the possible solutions (including swag)

3. Second workshop (20 minutes) is “Teach Anything (for Hackathons!)” by Tippi Fifestarr, delivered to a live (hybrid) audience, with an anonymous survey for feedback and measurement of Key Learning Objectives, including:

• Who is Jorge Lucero?
• What is Teach Anything?
• Why Teach Anything is a solution to common problems at Hackathons
• How Teach Anything (for Hackathons!) can improve teamwork, overall learning and community engagement at your next hackathon?
• How to facilitate a Teach Anything?

4. Third Workshop (20 minutes) is Hackathon Study Group Study Group by Web3 Library, where the Proto.School Study Group members share how to set up a recurring and mutually beneficial study group in a decentralized way. Such that might benefit a 5-week long hackathon.
