Hopin

Hopin is an online conference platform. We will use it for our conference.

We'll put some guidance here on how to sign in and use it.

Registration on the platform

Registering for the conference is the first step. The conference will send attendees a "magic link." When they get the magic link, they create their account on hopin. They fill in a hopin account and then they respond to the email that comes back.

Interpretation

Thru Kudo or Clevercast, then to Youtube and/or back to Hopin.

• Stages for a couple of speakers and the audience silent. Workshops in which 20 people can talk and more people can attend.
• Through Streamyard, flexibility "backstage", in the "green room" and, we think, a way for interpreters to give a second audio channel.
• Safe space capabilities: organizers can silence or expel a participant
• Recordings: We can record most sessions (possibly not second audio channel) automatically and get the recordings later
• EMWCon and SMWCon used this platform, for smaller more techy MediaWiki conferences than this one.
