Women in Tech WorkshopWednesday, November 9, 2016 | 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. | Center for Open Science

In this era of digital natives, to say that technology is changing education would be a tremendous understatement.

Please join Charlottesville Women in Tech on November 9 for Open Source for Open Minds: Crowd-Sourced Platforms for Teachers and Learners, including a panel discussion on the relationships (both actual and possible) between open source technologies and education. Panelists include Kim Wilkens, CS teacher at STAB and founder of Tech-Girls; Caner Uguz, front-end programmer with a Ph.D. in Instructional Technology; and Christianna Andrews, 2nd year Ph.D. student in Instructional Technology. Come learn how the principles of open source (free distribution/modification and crowd-sourcing) are impacting educational environments. Register »

This event is free and open to women only.
