MOOC – Virtual Hackathon

Chapter C – Platform: online tools

Researcher Anestis Petridis

For the organisation of a successful virtual hackathon event, tutors/organisers need to make a number of decisions about the structure of their event before the actual event takes place (i.e., specifications), find the venue, invite the participants and conduct the hackathon like any other virtual event. On the other hand, participants need to be informed about the  hackathon event, register, participate and collaborate in the frame of this event either remotely or hybrid.

All of these crucial steps taken place either by tutors/organisers or participants require the existence of dedicated tools and platforms that will realise the preparatory  decisions and the actual conduction of this virtual hackathon event.

This chapter provides a hands-on course regarding the use of online tools and platforms for the creation of a “virtual hackathon event” environment that will host the actual hackathon event.
