How to document a Drumbeat Festival session


Top 5 note-taking tips

With an eye toward writing "the first draft of history" please keep the following in mind as you are attending sessions, taking notes on the etherpad / wiki, and soaking up the conference atmosphere: 

  1. Who, What, When, Where, Why, and How and What's the dog's name? Every sensory and verbal detail you can capture will help make the event come alive--the temperature in the room, the T-shirt slogans people are wearing, a giggle or silly moment.
  2. Keep it Concise. Most sessions will be recorded. When taking notes, don't transcribe everything that's said; write down what strikes you as being the essential exchanges and best quotes.
  3. Go After Hours. Conversations outside the sessions are just as important as what goes on inside. Try to to keep your notebook, iPad, etc, around during meals, at the bar, etc--as long as you disclose to the folks around you that you've got your reporter hat on.
  4. Ask Follow-Ups. Don't be afraid to buttonhole presenters and get a few followup quotes after sessions.
  5. Have Fun! Follow your interests and instincts.


3 big questions to think about...

Here's 3 big questions to reflect on when composing your notes:

  • What will education look like in 2020?
  • What are the most important common values between open software and open learning?
  • What are the most important tools that need to be built and practices that need to evolve in order for learning to become free and open?
