London Hopper Colloquium



Hello!



My Mobile Learning review was published, if you want to take a look clique here.

So, yesterday I went to London Hopper Colloquium for women that was an event sponsored by Queen Mary University of London, Women CL, The British Computer Society and Google. It was very nice, but very specific to the field of Computer Science. I presented my poster (It was a nightmare to print it) and could know what is going on among women and computing. For me the most important part of the day was the panel session, when the speakers answered questions of the audience. They talked about their career and gave some tips to "survive"in a field that is populated by men. It was the first time that I went to a women conference, so that it was funny to notice that many worries we have in the everyday situations are very normal. Worries about family and motherhood , how to conciliate career and private life and so on. After the colloquium, I went with 2 other research student - Fernanda Li Minku and Yang Li to go sightseeing London. They are from University of Birmingham. We had a great time.
