*Mozilla Festival sync up*

   - http://pad.p2pu.org/mozilla-festival-london (loads of P2PU people are
   going to be there)


   - Good(?) news -> I will also be there !!!!! d(^_^)b nice emoticon!


   - Ideas for possible sessions (to be added to the pad) & what might they
   need to happen:


   - Chloe: a Learning lab Challenge (Or Challenge creation Challenge):


   - keep it broad for the challenge not SoW specific


   - -- such a good idea ^^


   - Participants use a card game to share ideas, goals, objectives for new
   challenges


   - Need: Print posters, index cards


   - To do: blog the rules/structure


   - John: Science Fair


   - P2PU in general, mention schools (focus on SoW in other places)


   - SoW


   - SoSI


   - School of Math (if Maria is there)


   - School of Open


   - Goal: Get the word out about P2PU, get users signing up right at the
   table.


   - Needs: Screen/big monitor


   - Swag


   - Print outs


   - Philipp: we want to have a big push around SoW at this event - it's the
   right audience


   - We want more webcraft challenges


   - use, critique and create new ones - some UX support perhaps?


   - Badges: what are the ones most useful for web developers? What do we
   want to show? [Happy to be involved –Carla]


   - Chloe: if we have a challenge creation challenge - should we have
   people create them on the P2PU platform?


   - Yes


   - Chloe's Challenges session not tied to SoW, include media people, look
   at pedagogy, bootstrap new objectives


   - SoW session: an application of the ideas that are surfaced in Chloe's
   session in the SoW context.


   - Difference between Challenge and Learning Lab


   - Challenge: Activity to reach a goal


   - Learning Lab: Knowledge Gain


   - Learning Lab: Webmaking 101 [John]


   - See http://pad.p2pu.org/mozilla-festival-london for more details


   - FYI -- session on socializing learning videos (hosted by Anne Jonas)
   https://mozillafestival.org/2011/09/29/video-discussion/


   - What is the next step?


   - Come up with working titles for the sessions


   - Use the Mozilla Pad as working space, then notify Michelle and Gunner
   when content is ready to be pulled into their system


   - john to email community with link to festival pad and publicly ask for
   additonal ideas / volunteers to lead sessions


*P2PU Workshop Planning*

   - There is an etherpad (surprise!)


   - http://pad.p2pu.org/workshop


   - At the moment, this is not complete, but objective is that each session
   has an owner, and each has tangible outcomes.


   - Have a look at it! Add your ideas!


   - Will share with the community as well, so those not present will be
   able to shape the agenda


   - Organise a special community call for everyone to weigh in on these
   ideas.


   - Call to action: Add concrete sessions you would like to see, own
   sessions if you're going to be there.


   - Next step: Email to community list, and online call for agenda planning



*UX Badges discussion*

   - Are there any new features that might be coming out in the next few
   days which have an implication for the badges?


   - Yes:http://alpha.p2pu.org/en/badges/


   - Features are in alpha, so would be useful if people went and tried them
   out.


   - Focus was on functionality, so if people could make suggestions for
   (small, easy) visual changes


   - Not sure yet how to go about this back&forth process - will figure out
   how to send the updates.
