Documentation

It’s important to us to keep SRCCON events small enough to feel friendly and conversational, but we also care about getting the ideas and conversations that take place into the wider world. The most important way this happens is when attendees return to their newsrooms and put new skills and approaches to work, but we also document as extensively as possible. This page collects resources you can refer back to as you bring SRCCON:POWER home with you:

• Transcripts
• Session notes & resources
• Session write-ups on Source

Transcripts

Our captioner provided live transcription of all our talks at SRCCON:POWER. Those transcripts are marked on our full schedule, or you can use the lists below. If you notice something that needs to be fixed, we’d love your pull requests or emails.

Session Notes & Resources

All sessions at SRCCON:POWER have a collaborative etherpad that facilitators and attendees can use to share links and capture notes on discussions as they take place. Each entry on our schedule has a link to that session’s etherpad. We also collect slide decks, worksheets, and other documentation right here—if you’re a facilitator and you have session resources to share, let us know!

Session Write-Ups

In the leadup to SRCCON:POWER, we featured a selection of Q&As with speakers about the topics and research they brought to this year’s event. You can find the series on Source.

After SRCCON events, we also publish a series of session summaries on Source that dig into the things people learned during conversations and workshops. If you publish your own writeups or blog posts, we’d love to hear about them so we can help you share them with everyone!
