Get a sense of the scope of the Festival and seek out collaborators for the next two days -- in a casual setting with some of the smartest people working on open education on the web today.

Remember Science Fairs in grade school?  The Drumbeat version involves grown-ups and cocktails, but it's pretty much the same concept.  Smart people who are passionate about their super-cool projects -- research, learning models, web projects, software, experiments -- want to show you what they're working on and get your feedback and ideas. They'll bring out their prototypes, wireframes, maps, charts, and crazy ideas while you explore and engage. The Science Fair will include tables for each of the official tents and spaces holding programming throughout the Festival, so you can learn what they've got planned.

There will be prizes for participants who interact with the most exhibits!

FYI, we've done this before. Check out these Mozilla Summit Science Fair pictures to get a sense of how awesome it will be.
