“We want to!”
Let’s get together at our newest brewpub on a lazy Saturday afternoon.

This meetup is just for regular discussion, mingling, and good times – just hang out!

Note that the venue has limited capacity and no projectors or anything, it’s just an awesome pub. If you don’t RSVP, there’s no guarantee there’ll be seating for you (or you might have to sit all alone at another table!)

Event Information

Connected Canada (#ConnectedCA) will be happening on May 25-27, 2012 at the Calgary Science School (you can register here). This will be a conference that is significantly different from many that are being offered with a focus on creating connections and conversations on things happening in the world of education. We really hope that people from around Canada (our friends outside of the country are more than welcome!) will join in on these conversations, and continue to build connections long after the conference. There is also an opportunity to check out the classrooms of a very innovative school and bring ideas back to your own classrooms. Here are some reasons why you should attend:
1. Face-to-face is better – There are many great conversations that are happening through social media, such as Twitter, Facebook, and other social networks on the Internet, but the chance to sit and talk to each other is something that we should always take advantage of when the opportunity arises. Admittedly, a lot of learning happens at these types of conferences outside the sessions through informal conversation.
2. You are part of the conversation – There are people from around Canada that are committed to sharing their work but we all know that no one is “smarter than the room”. Conversations are meant to be interactive with participants also sharing their successes and struggles. We can all learn from each other and the format of the conference is meant to take advantage of that idea.
3. No expensive keynotes – Okay…so many people might not see this as an advantage, but we wanted to provide an opportunity for educators to learn from other practicing educators. We did our best to keep this 3 day event as cheap as possible, treat participants great, and give a valuable, connected learning experience. Keynotes can definitely be hit or miss so we wanted to keep the speaking to a minimal so that you are a part of the conversation! (See #2) Not one person is being paid for this event; we are there to support education and educators in Canada.
4. See classrooms in action! – Often we hear of some great ideas that do not seem feasible in the classroom. On the first day of the conference, participants will have the opportunity to visit classrooms and see innovative teaching and learning as it happens. We are all better when we have the chance to learn with one another so we are hoping that seeing students and educators in action will spark some great conversations and learning for participants.
5. It’s going to be fun! – This is the unspoken truth of many conferences. The chance to learn from other educators is invaluable, but we also have to revel in the opportunities to get to know each other as people as well. The chance to socialize with one another and take part in functions, tweetups, and more will help us to deepen in our relationships which are the foundation of our schools. The chance to connect is so important and we plan to ensure that there is ample time and opportunity for this.
As we come into the final 6 weeks before the conference, we encourage you to register for this great event, and bring someone (at least one person, if not more!) who may not be “connected”. The chance to see how social media can easily improve both online and offline relationships, facilitate deep conversations, and invigorate our passion for education and our students, is something that is amazing to see by those who do not see the value. BRING A FRIEND!

We hope to see you in Calgary on May 25!

From theatre, literature and education to history, sociology and international development, Congress represents a unique showcase of scholarly excellence, creativity, and leadership.

Categories:

The Vancouver Comic Arts Festival is a week-long celebration of comics slated to enjoy its launch in May 2012 (note: we have used the dates listed on the event site for this calendar listing). This festival of local cartoonists will feature galleries, readings, panels, and workshops before culminating in a two-day convention for cartoonists from across the country and down the coast to connect with their readers and peddle their wares.

The goal of VanCAF is to appeal to everyone, whether they’re already die-hard comics fans or simply experimenting. For this reason, admission to all events will be free, and table costs for exhibitors will be as low as possible. We’re not so much concerned with making a profit as we are transforming Vancouver into a city of story-telling and comics.

First Annual Ottawa Game Conference

The one-day event, made possible with the support of the Ontario Media Development Corporation, will explore video games from the development and business perspectives, and will feature expert speakers from Ottawa and around the world.

“Ottawa has a surprisingly long history of game and interactive media development stretching back to the founding of Artech Studios in 1982. There are now over 200 game, animation and interactive media companies in town making worldwide brands and award-winning entertainment products. The conference is intended to strengthen the bonds between local firms and enhance our ability to compete globally,” said Scott Simpson, CEO, bitHeads & Playbrains.

Additional partners include:
- Algonquin College
- Export Development Corporation
- Invest Ottawa
- Interactive Ontario
- Generator
- Glitchsoft
- Knowmads Inc.
- Sylien Games
- Ottawa Chapter of the International Game Developers Association
Sponsors include
- Labarge Weinstein
- RBC
- Victory Arts
“Our sector doesn’t fit the traditional image of Ottawa high tech, which has focused on things like network infrastructure. It’s not a 9-5 industry and there’s continuous disruption. This is the next generation of Ottawa’s tech sector,” said Jean-Sylvain Sormany, president of Snowed in Studios.

The conference will include a gallery of concept art that showcases the creative process, presented by CanvasPop, and an evening reception celebrating innovation, including motion and thought-controlled games.

“Gaming was once considered a trend, or solely kids’ entertainment, but when we examine how it has permeated our daily lives and found a home on devices from consoles to PCs to mobile phones, it’s clear that it has become part of our cultural bedrock. This conference celebrates Ottawa’s role in the expansion and innovation of the gaming industry and facilitates our growth as a business community,” said Mike Burns, CEO, Fuel Industries.

Early bird registration is open now, with the early bird rate of $175.00 effective until April 29, 2012.

Responsive Enhancement

More information on this event will be available on April 4th

Responsive design is one of the most exciting developments to hit the web for some time. But there’s a common misconception that it involves merely slapping some media queries on to an existing desktop-centric site and labelling the result “mobile-friendly.” Nothing could be further from the truth.

What will you learn?

This workshop will help you to construct web sites that will feel natural on a whole range of devices, from mobile phones to tablets, laptops, e-readers and devices we haven’t even thought of yet. You’ll learn how to:
- Ensure that no visitor is denied access to information.
- Decide when to switch layouts using media queries.
- Apply fluid layouts based on percentages.
- Serve up different sized images for different environments .
- Prioritise content.
What should you bring?

Bring some paper and a writing device (I find a pen works well). If you want to bring a laptop to play along with some of the code examples, you can but it isn’t necessary. I’ll give you all the slides and examples so don’t worry about frantically taking notes.

What should you know?

This workshop is aimed at both designers and developers (and if you’re a content strategist, there’s some good stuff for you too). There will be a healthy dollop of code (HTML, CSS and JavaScript) but it’s the concepts that really matter so don’t worry if you’re not that confident with development.

Ideacity gathers speakers and performers, mavericks, big names, new names, unusual suspects and hidden treasures; and has them give it their all in a 17-minute talk or performance, on stage, in front of an audience of like-minded ideazens. 50 Presenters over the course of three days, punctuated by extra-long schmooze breaks and really roaring parties every night; it’s an unexpected combination of elements that never fails to exceed the sum of its parts.

ideacity is part of the ZoomerMedia interactive network

Event Information

In 2005, the organizers of Canada’s first weblogging social media conference put on an event that was inexpensive, informal, and accessible to techies and newbies alike. From those humble beginnings Northern Voice has been transformed into… well, actually it’s still cheap, friendly and open to all. We still emphasize the personal nature of the conference, encouraging people to find their voice and share their experiences online.

Electronic journalism has come a long way since the 1900s. We have supplanted print as the way most people get their news, added pictures (and impact), and have transitioned into web-based media as well, extending our reach. We’ve brought war, peace and everything in between into people’s homes in an effort to make them better informed. We have a lot on which to pride ourselves!

Join us for RTDNA’s National Conference, June 21-23, 2012 in Toronto, Ontario and help us celebrate over 100 years of experimental and commercial electronic journalism. Find out where we’ve come from and our accomplishments as a medium along the way – those things will truly shape our future!
