What's new in the 11th Symposium 2024?
Hybrid Conference
Like last year (10th Symposium), but in an enhanced way, we will have the conference in hybrid mode. This will allow more participation, and since this year's theme is education technology we will use the state of art tools for collaboration and online conferencing.
What is Hackathon?
Hackathons are events where like-minded people come together to ‘hack’ innovative ideas and build realistic tech solutions to implement those ideas.
The goal of a hackathon is to solve challenges throughout the event and create a fully functioning usable software or hardware product or prototype by the end of the event.
Who can participate in #CreativeHack2024?
Participation is open to all the teachers, educators, and researchers interested in designing new apps or sharing their ideas or pedagogical know-how. Also, it's open for the students of education, IT, and education technology departments interested in helping to create the apps/services and coding. We are also encouraging government representatives who can present government, educational policies and their research.
