Schedule

{% if event_status != "over" %} The anticipated schedule is as follows, with all times listed in Eastern Time (ET). Be sure to add the events to your calendar using the Gather links. {% else %} The schedule for the event was as follows, with all times listed in Eastern Time (ET): {% endif %}

Feb 22 - Mar 27

Brainstorm, build, team up.

  1. Add the events to your calendar using the "Add to Calendar" link from the Gather Town event page (for Outlook calendars, you will need to login to Outlook online)
  2. Enter your email into this form or send an email to sterling.baird@utoronto.ca with subject line "Slack guest invite request" so that we can manually add you as a guest to the #ac-bo-hackathon slack channel, or if your workspace has Slack Pro, join the Slack channel directly. These are the preferred options over starting a Slack Pro free trial, since you will lose access to the channel once the trial has expired. The free trial route (e.g., in a personal workspace) is a fallback if you need immediate access to the slack channel.
  3. Brainstorm project ideas and form teams
    1. Browse the existing project proposals
    2. If you'd like to solicit team members or get feedback, post your project idea in the slack channel with the #team hashtag to make it easier to search for these posts. You may also consider using social media
    3. If you would like to join a team, use the slack channel to express your interest and describe your background, again using the #team hashtag
    4. Submit your project proposal (multiple allowed)
  4. For coding-related projects, complete the orientation modules
