The 2022 PressED conference

Each session at the conference is based on 10-15 tweets in a fifteen minute period. If you’re presenting you can add videos, gifs, slides, links or whatever you’d like to your tweets

You can also take part by following the hashtag (#pressEdConf22) for the day – or at any time after the conference has happened.

When a session finishes, there’ll be a chance to ask questions.

Remember to follow the code of conduct

If you’ve not got time to do a session, feel free to send us a link to your WordPress Projects and we’ll add them to our resource bank.

Here is the complete conference code of conduct

Our open PressED community strives to

• Be friendly and patient.
• Be welcoming: We strive to be a community that welcomes and supports people of all backgrounds and identities. This includes, but is not limited to members of any race, ethnicity, culture, national origin, colour, immigration status, social and economic class, educational level, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, age, size, family status, political belief, religion, and mental and physical ability.
• Be considerate: Remember that we’re a world-wide community, so you might not be communicating in someone else’s primary language.
• Be respectful: Not all of us will agree all the time, but disagreement is no excuse for poor behavior and poor manners. We might all experience some frustration now and then, but we cannot allow that frustration to turn into a personal attack. It’s important to remember that a community where people feel uncomfortable or threatened is not a productive one.
• Be careful in the words that you choose: we are a community of professionals, and we conduct ourselves professionally. Be kind to others. Do not insult or put down other participants. Harassment and other exclusionary behavior aren’t acceptable. This includes, but is not limited to:
  • Violent threats or language directed against another person.
  • Discriminatory jokes and language.
  • Posting sexually explicit or violent material.
  • Posting (or threatening to post) other people’s personally identifying information (“doxing”).
  • Personal insults, especially those using racist or sexist terms.
  • Unwelcome sexual attention.
  • Advocating for, or encouraging, any of the above behavior.
  • Repeated harassment of others. In general, if someone asks you to stop, then stop.
• When we disagree, try to understand why: Disagreements, both social, academic and technical, happen all the time. It is important that we resolve disagreements and differing views constructively. Remember that we’re different. The strength of our community comes from its diversity, people from a wide range of backgrounds. Different people have different perspectives on issues. Being unable to understand why someone holds a viewpoint doesn’t mean that they’re wrong. Don’t forget that it is human to err and blaming each other doesn’t get us anywhere. Instead, focus on helping to resolve issues and learning from mistakes.

If you experience or witness unacceptable behavior—or have any other concerns—please report it by contacting us via [email protected]. We will handle all queries with discretion and confidentiality 

Hey

So we’re not the finest legal minds, but in submitting a session to pressED you agree that

1. We will retain your submission, email address, twitter handle and name until the conference finishes (March 26th)
2. After that date we will email you and ask if you want to have your data removed

If you wish to be deleted before March 26th, then you can email us at [email protected] and we can delete whenever you would like

Thanks 🙂
