 Yeah, well I stream now. Nobody's watching. But you know, some of my job, it's been recorded. Yeah, it's nice. I kind of want to go because it's USB self-powered, so I used to do things on my iPad. And so that made it easy to have a little portable recording. But it looks kind of cool. Likewise, say goodbye to the Internet. Are you taking off? All right, see you in Bris Vegas. Have you been to Australia? Okay, yeah, it's gonna be great. Oh really? Yeah, I'm inviting them. Everything about cancer, about the presentation, and because they were in the public to online, they had 900 courses, which they had two publics within three weeks, because the Chinese paying the students, so they didn't understand what they were doing. So they were busy, and they were like, what was this supposed to be for two weeks? Did you have trouble getting home? No, that was fine. Okay. But when I came home there, there was two weeks, and then everything shut down. Melbourne's a great city. That's one of the words. Yeah, all right, yeah, I spent some time in RMIT. Yeah, I did, yeah. I played Australia. You played? Yes. Tell the story now. So I'm all the footy player. Yes, I am, because when I came to Sweden, I was sitting next to a posse in the place and coaches, so I can't wait to go back to Australia and see some feeling. Okay, so we have to organize some footy outings, right? Some exercises. In fact, I was the president of the Swedish-Australian football association. Wow, there you go, there you go. I played for the German, the Danish, and the Swedish national team in Australian football. It's not very difficult, because there's only 300 people exercising, and little bragging rights. Oh, see, Georgia's multi-talented. No, I don't know. I'm just speaking to you, I'm not getting it, but there was a long time ago as well, so that was the best sport in the world. That's very good. Yes, so I'm about to go home now. Oh, you're? Yes, I'm leaving the plane leaves for class six. Oh my gosh, safe travels. So good to see you, and we'll be in touch. Yeah, yeah, thank you, George. Okay, how are we global? Knocking over the camera. Knocking over the camera, we are live from the conference floor. Hello out there. Let us know in the chat who's watching. Paula, we're live. Yeah, say hello to the world, the whole internet. How was your day today? Wonderful, wonderful. Very good experiences with great people and interesting sessions to follow up with afterwards. So much, yeah. A lot of things to study, a lot of things to work with. Yeah, and now we know we're going to Australia. Oh yeah, exciting, never been there. Hopefully I will join you. Oh good, I hope so. I think you would love it. Thank you, all of you. Thank you so much. Hey, there's Paula Corky out there, so anybody out there in OG Live Land? Hello, how are you? How are you? Yeah, my name's Alan. Obrina, okay. Oh, you're from Norquist? Yeah. Okay. No, no, I'm with OE Global with the conference. That's the open education organization that's running this conference. So we work with a lot of people from Norquist to plan this and bring in many people from around the world. Yeah, what do you do at Norquist? Okay, fantastic. Yeah, we're talking live on the internet right now. Oh, you're with Explore Edmonton, yeah, excellent. Present this event and a couple of mutual events, and now in the kitchen first, that was a big draw for people. Yeah, so this event is a good one. Yes. Yes. That's so good. So you're going to make sure to take care of all the mess that the previous generations have made of this planet, right? Yeah. Okay. Thank you for doing that. Thank you for saying hello and take any swag you want. Keep chains and buttons, yeah. All right. Thank you. It's the last little, last hours of the conference. There's a few more sessions, a course in ceremony. There'll be a talking circle, which is kind of a unique concept for a smaller group, kind of sharing about their conference experience, especially there's been so much about this conference. That's been kind of a different from other conferences, especially the leaving of indigenous ways and the vision of the conference and having so many people from different parts of the world, and also being able to include folks out there who've been tuning into the live stream and those couple people have been coming in. I see some folks out there. And if you don't mind in chat, let us know where you are in the world and if you have any questions or things that we can try to nab from some people walking by here. This is the conference break. We have a little bit of last conference break before the next sessions. And I said, hello from the OEF conference. I can't even tell you this is the OEG conference. Alan can't really spell well, but we are here in Edmonton and I spelled conference wrong. So out there, let us know where you're tuning in from. And just anything you might want to say about the open education or Edmonton, we can talk about the weather. How about the weather? Weather is pretty fantastic out there. I don't know if you can see, but there are some bright blue skies and we get the camera turned around. Edmonton has certainly turned out. Maria Angelica, thank you for tuning in. So good to see you here and I'm glad you've been able to participate. Yeah. So much about Indigenous communities, especially big here in Canada, but there are really great sessions and things we learned about Indigenous education and efforts in Taiwan and Hawaii. We had a great session this morning from Wayne, from CCC OER. And so so much happening that is pretty exciting. And so we certainly glad that you're able and Maria Angelica and quite a few other people. We had about 100 people coming in on the live stream. So hopefully people got a chance to catch some of the live streams. And yeah, I know you've got big plans to spread until the time. And so we definitely want to see that happen. Lots of things. A big group of educators from Uruguay is here, from Tectamon Array, of course, and met some folks from Spain. Yeah, the international participation, this has been definitely something that many people have responded to very favorably. And it really really enables a conference to have a really broad appeal. And in so many places you see so many conversations going on. And you know, people are sharing contacts and getting connected over projects and resources. And that's the thing we like to see. So just want to tune in and give a chance to anybody who might drop in. And otherwise, we just have some recordings here of people walking around. Some of them look a little tired. Maybe I look a little tired. But yeah, it's been such such a full set of days here. The reception last night at Northwest College was so fantastic. There was jig music, and there was food, and there's Gino. I'm web streaming. We're live. Say hello to Maria Angelica. She's our intern. Oh, you're looking at nothing. Okay, there we go. That's true. It's very good. That's okay. Nice to see you connect. Global this year is the best example. Yeah. You're gonna have fun with that one, Gino. Gino Franven, extraordinary artist, energy. Everywhere Gino goes, there's energy in the room and bringing in Gojian and his work with the Knowledge Equity Network and so many other good things. And so, yeah, here we are. Get a sense of what's going on. Still a lot of activity down the hallway. And people just, I think, coming out of their their last sessions, still getting some good traffic there towards the the booths where some of our sponsors are set up. We've got Pressbooks and Ecampus Ontario and down there is LibreTechs. And there go all the the BC campus people. I didn't get a chance to say hi. It's so nice to see you. Yes. Yeah. Yeah, we're doing a little live stream. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'll say anything for the world. Give me three words to describe the experience. Yeah. Fantastic. Three words to describe OE Global 23. Fantastic. Any other different words? Fantastic. Excellent. Excellent. Thank you so much, BC campus team. I'm heading back, so I'm sorry to interrupt you. No, no, that's what I wanted. Sorry, I'm interrupting the last room to get down. So yeah, some people are going. So if you're tuning out there, please say hello in the chat so we can know who's turning in. I know we have Maria Angelica. This is coming in from Mexico. This is Al Mavine, live OEG live from the conference store in Edmonton. And it's the again, I'm not repeating myself, but it's the last the last break before some of the last recessions. There'll be some. You want to say hello? Oh, no, but you can say hello. We're doing a live webcast. Hi, Kathy. Hey, uh, yeah, sounds good. How's it going? I was saying hello. Yes. It's been this conference. It's amazing. Yeah. So you've reached my chat. Yes, I've been looking. Yes. So nice to meet you face to face. Yeah. Thank you for your work. Yeah. Yeah. So you have to get turned out of there. Oh, that's awesome. All right. Yeah. Well, there you go. Uh, if you miss the news, uh, there's going to be taken off. Okay. Safe travels. See more people known about. Uh, looks like, um, yeah, you can feel the energy or he's waving. They're happy. Okay. Okay. You know my number. Okay. Some friends from, uh, Maricopa just walked by where I started my career. So great that they're still heavily involved in the OEG conference and open education in general, which wasn't even a thing when I worked there. I want to hear those old stories. Yeah. Definitely. You're right. The energy. That's a little bit what we wanted to capture here, especially because, yes, we can sort of see a live stream and a presentation. There goes Mario. But, um, you know, to sort of get the feel about, to me, what the best part of conference is, is getting to talk to people in between the sessions. And so that's what we've tried to do here and bring a little bit. Take care, Sarah. Uh, Sarah Crush there was, uh, an award winner a year ago. I don't know if I have any, um, energy left to get people over. I'm a little bit tired, but it's so energetic. Yeah. Everything was just so well planned here, even the weather. They really, you know, organized the weather. And so that, you know, that shows you how powerful Merck West College is. We've had the student volunteers that have been out busy throughout the conference. They've been helping us support for speakers in the room. They've been reporting social media. We love having that student component. Definitely like to see that happen in the future. And, um, and yeah, like, man, the conference goes really fast. You're opening Helen. We're doing a live webcast again. And so people just like getting a feel of the energy of this. Yeah. That's good. That's good. Yeah. Just like, I'm just doing the virtually connecting. So now I think we've got to find a way to bring them back. Everybody's scattered to the wind. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I know. I know. But yeah, Ken and I talked about it a little bit because he did one from the CC summit, but we were all like, I forgot how to do it. And and actually the way we stood is a little bit complicated, but I think we can rethink how to do it. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Sounds good. Helen DeWard. All quiet here. Hello. Hello out there on the livestream. I see someone may have just joined. We're just about, I don't know how long they'll stay here. Anyway, talk to me in the chat. Is there anybody we can, I'm looking around the room to see who we might be able to draw all over. Not everybody wants to go on the panel. The emblematic who is so far at the very good question, Marie Angelica. Probably most emblematic is just a realization. This is my first in person conference since quite a bit before COVID. And I have been pretty convinced that we can do so much in terms of online and we can. But there's something really valuable about, you know, being in the space. And I think we can do both. I think we need to be able to do both kinds of things. But I've gotten a chance to be in the physical presence and hear the laughter of people that I've not seen for a long time. Or just mating for the first time. And then really what has happened so much is, I saw this at the end of the award ceremony, is you see people who didn't really know each other very well or maybe weren't aware of their work. And you can see them connecting. You see them sharing contacts. You can see that they're going to start collaborating after the conference. So you can see a lot of that informal connectivity happen. But honestly, Marie Angelica, the most have been sort of the infusion. And it wasn't just kind of like decorating the outside of the perspectives and themes of indigenous ways. And the keynotes by Darian LaTondra and yesterday by Sarah Lamore, we're just really almost like a breath of fresh air. And really, I think it's going to change a lot of people's perspective about not only like wanting to sort of address and be aware of needs and ways of being of indigenous learners, but actually of all the things that we learn that are different from the traditional ways that that we go about teaching and doing learning and education. And so connection, the whole idea of what constant that everything is interconnected, which is easy to say. But then when you think about it, it really talks about that everything that we are part of in terms of not only just people, but the mentions of the importance of knowing and acknowledging and also being aware of the land that we stand off. Do we think about the land? And not as always a physical thing, but the place that it represents. So I probably gave you too much, but there it all is. And so thank you for tuning in. We'll stick around for a little bit. I'll probably end the stream in about five minutes, but just glad to have this be part of the conference. And hope we can do more of these in the future. We will, if you haven't heard that the announcement the amount sent in the morning session was that the 2024 conference is going to take place in Brisbane, Australia with a host from our colleagues at University of Southern Queensland and Queensland University of Technology and the Library of Queensland. So multi institutions coming together to support a conference. So many things. Hey, you're online. Yeah, we're live webcasting. How's the conference been? Yeah, so how awesome? Why is it awesome? Because there's been so many sessions, research based, it's been awesome. The keynotes have been like out of this world. It's like really thoughtful and maybe asking lots of questions. So it's been, yeah, it's really great. Okay. Here's my question. Three words to describe the conference. Fantastic. Thank you, Lynn. And there you go. So it was a funicular for this. It's kind of embedded in there. So nice to see you, Chris. See, look at that. People having fun here at the conference. Yeah, exactly. Thank you from other perspectives, especially, I mean, amazing, obvious, but it's really hard to step out of your own perspective. So we live. Hi. Yeah, here we are again. This is good. We have some people watching from around the world or somewhere in the world. Okay, so here's a question I'm asking. Describe the conference in three words. Fantastic. There you go. There you go. The last group was fun. So that's important. Of course it is. Yeah, there's lots of smiles going on. Well, your presentation got my pocket. Your plate is full, Connie. Take care. Okay, so thank you everybody for tuning in. I'm going to goodbye. Thanks again, Maria Angelica and most of the number two for tuning in to only global live from Edmonton. I'm going to close down shop because I got to get a session at three. But just thank you everybody. Wish you could be here, but at least you're here in the small ways. So take care and hi, hi, as we let me say, which is the three word for thanks. And so hi, hi to everybody out there. We'll see you at sometime in the future. Thank you.
