Feedback from final session:

• Smaller breakout groups (bog)
• Bog are a great format iff organized like this
• Force joining model
• Common programming was great
• Short presentations (4+2 minutes) is a great format
• Often same questions are raised – we should work on how to give short intros to what is already reached to continue the discussion and
• It could come more out of the bog…. Untapped potential….

• Tutorials were difficult to find tutors for, and tutors are unlikely to change their sessions much over time. In future, tutorials will need to be rethought (every other session?)
• More coffee!
