Greetings from the OpenEd Jam Team!

We are looking for *innovative* freely and openly licensed education
resources for our first OpenEd Jam! Do you have an idea for an *engaging
discussion*, *hands-on demonstration* or *interactive workshop* that
will *spark
the community* to create and use open education resources inside and
outside the classroom?

We're looking for activists, developers, educators, engineers, librarians,
and makers from all fields to come together for 3 days of collaboration and
discussion.

We have three tracks: Curriculum, Hardware and Software as well as rounds
of Lightning Talks.

The deadline to submit your proposal for OpenEd Jam is *April 1st, 2014*.

The proposals that we'll select will consider:

Does the proposal *advance the overall goal* of the event?
Does the proposal give *concrete value* to participants?
Does the proposal offer *collaboration* within the open education community?
Is the proposal *engaging*?

Never facilitated a session at an event before? Don't let that stop you! We
encourage proposals from folks who don't often attend events and we're
ready to support you to run an awesome session.

*Create an account and click on "Create Session" on the right sidebar to
propose your session! www.openedjam.org <http://www.openedjam.org> *

*Questions?* Contact Mariah Noelle Villarreal at mariah at openedjam.org

<mariah at openedjam.org>

Please feel free to share this call far and wide!
