Ticket Information
Event Details
Please join us in Portland for the 2018 Quantified Self conference, with over 100 original talks, workshops, and presentations about "self-knowledge through numbers." We’re thrilled to share the news that this year’s QS conference is going to have a special focus on self-collected data in formal and informal learning. Over the coming months we’ll be developing the program in close collaboration with a wide range of self-trackers and toolmakers. If you are doing a self-tracking project on any topic that you want to present at the conference, please get in touch. And if you’re a student, an educator, or both, we’re especially eager to find out what you’ve been working on. QS & Learning All Quantified Self projects aim at learning. The process of making observations, analyzing them, and making conclusions based on evidence is common across nearly all of the self-tracking show&tells we’ve seen. At the same time, most of us have at least some experience in conventional educational settings where the practice of self-experiment and everyday science has been mostly unknown. But this is changing. Quantified Self methods are being incorporated into many kinds of learning processes at the same time traditional classroom boundaries have become more porous, with learners of different ages and in remote locations participating in study that might once have required sitting at a desk and working through a textbook. This year we will explore the intersection of Quantified Self and formal and informal learning because we want to contribute to this expanded understanding of what it means to learn, and to help the culture of everyday science grow as a force for change. Food Our 2-day event will be catered by the incredible Field Day Feasts and Gatherings with a beautiful fresh offering that includes plenty of vegan, gluten-free and food sensitive items. Lodging We booked a group of studio rooms at the Marriott Residence Inn in the Pearl District of Portland. You can book your room for $209 per night with this link. The rooms are limited, so if you do intend to stay there, we encourage you to book ASAP.
