====== Workshop Guidelines ======


This guide is for those developing and presenting workshops for the Applied Creativity team and The Edge, State Library of Queensland. 


===== Introduction =====

So we’ve asked you to develop or present a workshop and use the SLQ Wiki to document and present your workshop, so how does it all work? Hopefully this guide will take you through everything you need to know.


===== Step 1. Type of Workshop =====

We run our workshops via a series of try and test development processes. 

  * Prototype the workshop
  * Trial the workshop 
  * Public presentation of the workshop once successfully trialed

On the SLQ Wiki you will find these sections listed under the Workshops & Inductions section;

The Wiki main page - https://wiki.slq.qld.gov.au/

The Workshop section - [[workshops:start|]]

If you’re reading through this guide, you’re probably at the Prototype stage, get in touch if you need to confirm.


===== Step 2. Workshop Template =====

Continuity and maintaining a similar flow for all our workshops is something we would really like to achieve so we’ve created a basic template to help guide you.

There are two ways you can create a new workshop.

When you scroll to the bottom of the Prototype Workshop Wiki page, there is an option to start a new workshop which uses our template;
\\  

[[workshops:prototypes:2022-23delivery-lasercutcovers:start]] 

\\ 

Or if you prefer, you can recreate the template using the source and adding your new workshop name after the URL;
\\ 

https://wiki.slq.qld.gov.au/doku.php?id=workshops:prototypes:*add the name here
\\

===== Step 3. Follow the template =====
	

  * Just update the sections for your workshop making sure to add photos and embed any videos as you go. 

  * You can also set up the Wiki entry to run as a [[acilities:slq_wiki:wiki_style_guide:revealjs|slideshow]]

  * If you would also like to include a slideshow presentation of your own, you can use whatever you like to make the slides, just make sure to save as a PDF and upload to the workshop Wiki page in the download section. If it is a Powerpoint presentation then you will need to request the SLQ templates. 

  * If you do make a video, keep the final size below 92mb if you intend to upload to the Wiki, and please include the following slide at the end of the video. Download that {{:workshops:slq_logo_slide.jpg?linkonly|here}}

  * You can also embed the video however we will need to host it on the Edge Vimeo channel, contact staff for further info.

  * The font that SLQ uses for titles and headings is Gotham Narrow in Medium, Book and Light, please see the [[https://www.slq.qld.gov.au/|SLQ]] website for reference.   

  * Attribute images you are using, even if they are your own.
