 those are not always effective for folks like introverts, those who might not be in the “in crowd” at a conference, etc. They take effort that not everyone feels comfortable engaging in. 2026-08-06 09:13:56 From ******** to Everyone: Replying to "The hallway conversations is everything.": We worked very hard to have the ones on the edge of conversation to get that experience in VC as well actually. 2026-08-06 09:14:07 From ******** to Everyone: Replying to "The hallway conversations is everything.": yes, so what was amazing is if you're virtual in the virtually connecting, it is less stressful then, because someone else is facilitating that conversation and you can listen or speak in chat or such 2026-08-06 09:14:37 From ******** to Everyone: Replying to "The hallway conversations is everything.": THIS - yes! but this is something that affects you whether online or in person. If you want to engage but can't because of the online-ness, that's an issue? 2026-08-06 09:14:51 From ******** to Everyone: Replying to "The hallway conversations is everything.": xcellent! Thanks for addressing this 2026-08-06 09:15:03 From ******** to Everyone: Replying to "The hallway conversations is everything.": Lurking is learning... 2026-08-06 09:15:15 From ******** to Everyone: Replying to "The hallway conversations is everything.": (people could also watch the stream live, we livestreamed on Youtube and it was available later as an unedited recording) 2026-08-06 09:16:29 From ******** to Everyone: Since I believe that all communications is contained in one's mind, the need to prepare oneself accordingly - especially when communications utilizing VideoConferencing is used. 2026-08-06 09:17:12 From ******** to Everyone: Virtual facilitator, YES! Love that. 2026-08-06 09:17:58 From ******** to Everyone: Yes, agree with all that has been said so far. This was such a formative experience for me, meeting so many other “buddies” and then other folks partcipating. 2026-08-06 09:18:42 From ******** to Everyone: Replying to "Yes, agree with all that has been said so far. Thi...": Agreed and I was so happy to have met you and others in person when I was able to make it to some OpenEd conferences and become and "on-site Buddy". 2026-08-06 09:18:48 From ******** to Everyone: What you shared: https://bit.ly/hybrid-responses 2026-08-06 09:19:49 From ******** to Everyone: Replying to "Yes, agree with all that has been said so far. Thi...": And there are a number of folks I’ve never met in person but b/c of VC and other interactions I sometimes forget that we haven’t b/c I feel like I know them so well! 2026-08-06 09:19:55 From ******** to Everyone: hi! We were talking about you a few mins ago, don't know if you were here at the time 🙂 talking about your gradual growth within VC 2026-08-06 09:22:07 From ******** to Everyone: ------------------- Activity 1: TRIZ Imagine the worst possible experience for you as online participant in hybrid conference. What does the experience feel like? Consider how to avoid this? Slides: https://bit.ly/listening-hybrid ------------------- 2026-08-06 09:35:31 From ******** to Everyone: I have to run, but that was a great exercise, and I appreciate the attention to making the conference work for all participants! Thank you! 2026-08-06 09:37:38 From ******** to Everyone: Sorry to my room but I’m participating via mobile and couldn’t add to the slide. 2026-08-06 09:38:11 From ******** to Everyone: btw we never put a link to Virtually connecting website https://www.virtuallyconnecting.org (the youtube channel is actual is the same as Equity Unbound's - so you can watch some of the past sessions - we kinda stopped by 2020 and become more Equity Unbound focused) 2026-08-06 09:38:48 From ******** to Everyone: Link to the YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCenqq-oORRTKa9SB_D464ug 2026-08-06 09:39:04 From ******** to Everyone: Actually, one of the things I like here, that you’re assigning the roles among two to three persons such as; sharing slides , distributing people over Breakout Rooms. That makes it more energetic and organized at the same time. đŸ€ 2026-08-06 09:39:10 From ******** to Everyone: Ensuring access to materials ahead of time is such a dance of honoring the presenters’ own timeline and getting people what they need to be included 2026-08-06 09:40:03 From ******** to Everyone: Replying to "Actually, one of the things I like here, that you’...": even more essential to share facilitation in hybrid because it's hard to focus on in-person AND virtual folks at the same time - we usually have someone who is virtual and one in-person who connect with each other but each is focused on one set of attendees 2026-08-06 09:41:45 From ******** to Everyone: We need a musical score that shows when different instruments can come in! 2026-08-06 09:42:51 From ******** to Everyone: agree re responsibility that f2f ppl need to take towards the virtuals 2026-08-06 09:43:15 From ******** to Everyone: Seems to me that the lack of personal engagement occurs when distractions happen during virtual meetings overtake the virtual presentations.. if so, can new technology, such as Meta Glasses and other virtual sensory tools aid in the reduction of these external distraction? 2026-08-06 09:43:36 From ******** to Everyone: Replying to "Seems to me that the lack of personal engagement o...": ooh feels intuitively like the opposite? 2026-08-06 09:43:37 From ******** to Everyone: Replying to "Seems to me that the lack of personal engagement o...": I was just thinking about those glasses!! 2026-08-06 09:43:56 From ******** to Everyone: Thanks everyone, sorry I have to step out now. 2026-08-06 09:44:03 From ******** to Everyone: Replying to "Seems to me that the lack of personal engagement o...": Cool idea! But what if some attendees don’t have access to those? 2026-08-06 09:44:07 From ******** to Everyone: Replying to "Seems to me that the lack of personal engagement o...": We're on the same level 2026-08-06 09:45:51 From ******** to Everyone: 100% on urgency here. 2026-08-06 09:46:29 From ******** to Everyone: I love watch parties! You can pause as a group and dig into claims/ideas and then unpause and this freedom is amazing 2026-08-06 09:46:28 From ******** to Everyone: When I teach online, I put a focus on getting the recording published as soon after the session as possible and my students wrote about appreciating that in teaching evaluations. 2026-08-06 09:48:13 From ******** to Everyone: I’m loving this idea of a buddy system. 2026-08-06 09:49:31 From ******** to Everyone: What a lovely phrase: “intellectually relaxing” 2026-08-06 09:49:34 From ******** to Everyone: Think Pair Share 2026-08-06 09:49:53 From ******** to Everyone: Experiencing online reality. My dad engaged in a conversation here with me since he doesn't really notice that I am in a session. 😂 2026-08-06 09:50:47 From ******** to Everyone: Agree that taking the time to have a reflective conversation during a conference, whether attending online or in person, is so helpful. So often conferences are go-go-go, one session after another, with so little impetus for pauses and reflections. 2026-08-06 09:52:52 From ******** to Everyone: Leaning much here>>>THANKS. New ideas. 2026-08-06 09:53:25 From ******** to Everyone: https://bit.ly/hybrid-padlet 2026-08-06 09:53:34 From ******** to Everyone: Slides: https://bit.ly/listening-hybrid 2026-08-06 09:53:58 From ******** to Everyone: I just came from a MYFest session with online games, and it can be fun to do an online game or two to help people have fun together and so support getting to know one another 2026-08-06 09:54:06 From ******** to Everyone: Even just the contributions in the chat here is very important and many of us learned that through VC (at least I did). 2026-08-06 09:54:41 From ******** to Everyone: Yup, the virtual OpenEds, the evening "Among Us" games, I built some friendships that remain. 2026-08-06 09:54:52 From ******** to Everyone: Replying to "I just came from a MYFest session with online game...": I want to know what games you played!! 2026-08-06 09:54:57 From ******** to Everyone: Replying to "Yup, the virtual OpenEds, the evening "Among Us" g...": Oh yes, I remember that. So fun! 2026-08-06 09:55:00 From ******** to Everyone: Thanks to all of you for this excellent start to my day here! 2026-08-06 09:55:15 From ******** to Everyone: Thanks for being here 2026-08-06 09:55:25 From ******** to Everyone: Bridge Steward on call 2026-08-06 09:55:40 From ******** to Everyone: Thanks for this — gotta go. I’ll add to the padlet asap. 2026-08-06 09:55:57 From ******** to Everyone: And get the physical folks into the virtual community, that's one of the things I miss/exhaust myself trying to do when i am physically at a conference that also has a virtual component 2026-08-06 09:56:27 From ******** to Everyone: Structure space and unstructured interaction 2026-08-06 09:57:11 From ******** to Everyone: and our chats are active. 2026-08-06 09:57:45 From ******** to Everyone: Replying to "and our chats are active.": They are! When I go to music librarian stuff, or events that aren't the open community/instructional design/learning science, I am stunned at how quiet the chat is. 2026-08-06 09:58:11 From ******** to Everyone: Replying to "and our chats are active.": that's so interesting (though librarians are generally quiet in person too, no? 🙂 ) 2026-08-06 09:58:14 From ******** to Everyone: Replying to "Yup, the virtual OpenEds, the evening "Among Us" g...": Is this the “among us” game that my 11 year old loves?? 2026-08-06 09:58:16 From ******** to Everyone: Replying to "and our chats are active.": I try so much to share with my students how valuable the chat is for online courses, they have not experienced that before. 2026-08-06 09:58:30 From ******** to Everyone: Replying to "Yup, the virtual OpenEds, the evening "Among Us" g...": Probably! 2026-08-06 09:58:31 From ******** to Everyone: I always promote Dr. Puentedura's SAMR Model: Substitution, Augmentation, Modification, and Redefinition 2026-08-06 09:58:35 From ******** to Everyone: Replying to "and our chats are active.": Ah, librarians are actually pretty rowdy in person. :-) 2026-08-06 09:58:47 From ******** to Everyone: Replying to "Yup, the virtual OpenEds, the evening "Among Us" g...": yes!!!! 2026-08-06 09:58:51 From ******** to Everyone: Replying to "and our chats are active.": haha not our librarians here (most are American or European) 2026-08-06 09:59:04 From ******** to Everyone: Thank you for holding this space! It is invigorating! 2026-08-06 09:59:12 From ******** to Everyone: Thank you all! 2026-08-06 09:59:44 From ******** to Everyone: Thanks for bringing this. 2026-08-06 09:59:47 From ******** to Everyone: Thanks to all!
