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.

How to use this template

This template is designed to make it easy to create a main page for an OLPC Jam event. To use it:

  2. type {{subst:Template:Jam|jamtitle = NAME OF JAM}} into that page (where NAME OF JAM is the name of the wikipage of your Jam), then save it.
  3. That's it! You'll have to go in and create each of the subpages at the top (Budget, Sponsors, etc.) yourself - feel free to add/remove subpages as needed. See Free Content Jam Taipei and Curriculum Jam Boston for examples of usage.

Introduction

Summary of the event coming here soon.

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]]!
