An OLPC Jam is an creative event designed to encourage (simultaneously) experimentation and innovation in the field participants are Jamming in and to produce open-licence content for the OLPC project in a short amount of time. Experienced, prepared participants work in small teams to collaborate with domain and local experts and produce a concrete product to a pre-specified problem; the creative output of the event is deployed in the field directly after the Jam. It's high-intensity improvisational fun - most participants say they've never created such a productive development experience like it before. See [[OLPC_Jams]] for more information.

What is a Jam?

An OLPC Jam is a content creation crunch that gets participants from idea to reality in just a few days. By the end of the Jam, you'll have something finished to test with local schoolchildren (who serve as judges for the event). It's a great way to get started developing for OLPC. Click here to learn more.

I want to participate!

Jams are collaboratively organized events, so the best way to get started is to just dive in and introduce yourself. Participating in this Jam? Have ideas? Want to coordinate rides, teams, projects, or talk about the Jam? Edit the [[Talk:{{{jamtitle}}}|Jam Talk Page]]!

Usage

Copy-paste the below code into your wiki page, filling in appropriate details. You'll have to go in and create each of the subpages at the top (Budget, Sponsors, etc.) yourself, and it's recommended that you add your own content after the default template. See GameJam_BostonJune2007 for an example of usage.

{{Jam
 | headergraphic   = <!-- Banner at top of page; you'll need to upload the file to the wiki. file name.ext (sans [[Image:file name.ext]] -->
 | jamtitle        = <!-- Title of the Jam. Typically TypeJam_LocationMonthYear, as in GameJam_BostonJune2007. -->
 | location        = <!-- Location/address of the Jam -->
 | date            = <!-- Date of the Jam -->
 | goal_short      = <!-- One-sentence description of Jam goal/challenge/objective-->
}}
