[iaoa-education] Fwd: Request for proposals for next ESAO webinar sessions. Answer by Sept 1rst!

Thu Sep 9 02:06:39 CEST 2021

Some from my ongoing work (e.g., papers for which I seek co-authors) for a very brief talk:
- how to create a foundational ontology (a generic approach). But would benefit if some foundational ontology developers collaborate.
- clarifying some concepts or terms in ontology that are often underspecified or mispresented:-- 'reality', 'realism vs. conceptualism', types of realism (in one of my reviewed papers)
-- mappings/harmonization
 - ethical aspects of ontology modeling and use (i have a couple of papers)
(FYI: open to formal collaborations and study opportunities to pursue these and other topics. Please contact me)
Can't guarantee a lengthy talk if at all due to personal situation.
If others want to work together on these topics for esao, i'm open to that.

Dear all,

I haven't received any reply from you regarding proposals for the next ESAO sessions of October and November.

You can still send that to me today :-) or, say, before the end of the week.

 On my end I gathered one proposal for November, and "ideas" for December or later. This is of course largely insufficient. Please motivate yourself and the people around you! 
  Otherwise, we are collectively failing to launch a proper series. 
  Best, Laure

 Dear Executive Council members and Education Technical Committee members,

 Our new ESAO (Educational Series on Applied Ontology) inititative is proceeding well, you can see the programme of the launch event here: https://esao2021.inf.unibz.it/

 Please don't forget to click on the ESAO box when registering to BOSK, in order to participate in this event, in presence or virtually.

 This launch event is meant to be the beginning of a series of webinars, to offer a continuous education activity and to grow a significant on-line library of educational material.

 We aim right now at having one such webinar session every month, with 1-3 talks per session. And it would be great to be in position to announce at least a couple of next sessions at the launch event.
 But we still need some more time to implement the permanent call and review process open to all. This is why we decided in the last EduTC meeting to now turn to you, hoping to can get a quick answer and solutions:

 *
 *

 *        -> Would you like to deliver an ESAO talk *(see below the idea and requirements)*in October? or in November? On**which topic *(give a title + a few lines to explain what is intended)*?*

 *        -> Do you know some confirmed *(post-doc)*researcher in our core community that is willing to do so? *(Please check ahead with them their availability for October or November and their topic proposal.)

 *        I am collecting your replies by September 1rst, but the earlier the better.**
 *

 *
 *

 We will then make a light review of what appears most suitable (for these first editions), and check the temporal availabilty of the speakers.
 It would be great to establish a regular time-slot for the webinars (e.g., second tuesday of the month at 18:00 CET/CEST), so please also send suggestions on times that you see suitable.

 Best,

 Laure for the EduTC

 == More information on ESAO and the talks ==

 The key idea of ESAO is a combination of (1) an archive of educational material and (2) a webinar series for presentation and exchange on that material.

 For (1), we aim at creating an archive of short (10-20 min), self-contained units of educational material (videos, web-, screen- and podcasts, among others) that is available to be streamed on demand. Any such unit can originate from recording a live session, but likewise it can be produced in any other suitable way. The purpose is the material as such and making it accessible.

 Concerning (2), an accompanying webinar series shall present the material and allow for personal interaction about its topics in a variety of formats, e.g. as live presentation with subsequent discussion, as question and answer sessions or panel discussions on a few units together for further digestion (then expected to have been “consumed” already), as well as further formats that may be proposed.

 The level of the talks should be introductory, i.e., suitable for graduate students and novel participants from industry. In terms of content, we perceive adequate topics to range from classical foundational ontological issues (such as well-known ontological choices and distinctions) over common theories and methods for ontologies to application issues. Overall, we are open and look forward to suggestions. (In any case, bear the short format in mind.)
