Welcome to the Conference Journal, a prototype of a collaborative and multidisciplinary platform for submitting presentations and publishing conference proceedings. This repository serves as both a conference journal and a presentation tool for panels and discussions aimed at fostering cross-disciplinary collaboration and innovation.
Website: Conference Journal
Organizers:
- Kendall Fortney, University of Vermont
The journal acts as an ongoing repository for multidisciplinary panels created by contributors across academia. Submissions are encouraged from teams spanning multiple academic institutions, emphasizing collaboration and diverse perspectives. Accepted submissions will serve as both journal entries and presentation materials for open-source capacity-building events.
We welcome panel submissions in the form of:
- Markdown files (
.md) - Jupyter Notebooks (
.ipynb)
- Fork this repository and create a branch for your submission.
- Add your panel content in the
proposalsdirectory, following the submission template. - Open a pull request with your panel title and description.
- The organizing team will review your submission. If approved, the pull request will be merged.
- Your submission will be included in the journal and converted into a presentation using RISE.
Submissions will be evaluated based on:
- Multidisciplinarity: Does the panel involve multiple disciplines?
- Institutional Diversity: Does it represent contributions from multiple academic institutions?
- Relevance: Does the panel advance open-source capacity in academia?
- Clarity: Is the content well-organized and accessible?
The Discussions section of this repository serves as the venue for event discussions, Q&A, and follow-up on journal entries. Join the conversation here.
Approved panels will be prepared for presentation using RISE, enabling Jupyter Notebook-based slides for interactive talks.
The journal's static site is built using Jupyter Book. The content is automatically updated with every accepted submission.
