Our next stop on the Road to Macstock is with Marty Jencius, who previews his workshop on troubleshooting Apple devices through a highly interactive “open space” format. Rather than a lecture, Marty explains how attendees will form small groups around real questions, share expertise, move between discussions using the “law of two feet,” and create organic conversations. The result will be a flexible, collaborative experience that encourages learning, problem-solving, and new connections among the participants.

MacVoices is supported by Macstock Connference, along with Ecamm Creator Camp, taking place in Crystal Lake IL on July 9 - 12. Sign up at macstockconference.com and use the code “macvoices” to save $50 off your ticket.
