The info booth was situated near the registration, ISTE booth, poster sessions and entrance to the conference sessions, exhibit hall and showcase, not too far from the conference headquarters. Affiliate volunteers, convention center staff and other locals staffed the booth. They distribute additional conference materials, guides, timelines and local information. Be prepared to over-staff during rush periods. Positive attitude, patience and a good sense of humor is highly recommended! For next year, we would suggest to coordinate regularly with “Ask me” staff and to offer the luggage storage for more than the last day of the conference.
Also, be prepared to refer technical questions to appropriate experts. Attendees will assume you have access to all answers when working this booth, so this task requires volunteers that are well connected to all teams, and able to think quickly on their feet. You’ll need a radio in this booth, as many issues will come up beyond your scope and responsibility.
