Panels form
Definitions
Panel refers to a conference given by one or many amateurs that have acquired an expertise in a given subject.
Workshop refers to a presentation whose purpose is to teach the public about a particular art while also allowing them to participate.
Interval refers to the 10-15 minutes gap between every panel/workshop that allows the previous panel/workshop to gather their things and for the following panel/workshop to prepare and setup.
Schedule block refers to a one (1) hour block in the schedule, but of which the length is in fact forty-five (45) minutes due to the interval between panels/workshops. In the case of a panel/workshop of which the length is two (2) schedule blocks, the interval between said two (2) blocks will be added to the length of the panel, making it effectively one (1) hour and forty-five (45) minutes long.
