Breakout Sessions

One of the breakout sessions during our conference will involve small group discussions around the scholarship that has shaped our field studies. Please think about one book/article that you have found to be particularly influential personally in your own field studies. We will be asking each of you to discuss this in a small group, sharing what the book/article is, when and how you first encountered it, and why and how it has been helpful for you in your research practice.

Parking

Parking is available at MIT by reservation and, due to ongoing construction at MIT, is extremely limited. You must reserve your spot ahead of time. Please contact Virginia Geiger (vgeiger@mit.edu) no later than Wednesday, October 4th. Otherwise, there is parking in and around Kendall Square.
