# Innovation Gardens # Codex Template: iLRN2026 Frame Development & Operations ## 0. Build Governance Rules > Every asset must either: > > - help users understand where they are > - help users understand where to go > - help users understand why this space matters > > If it does none of these, it should be removed. - Navigation must be resolvable within 10 seconds of entry - No critical function depends on a single modality (e.g., color-only signage) - All Frames must connect back to iLRN\_Central in ≤ 2 steps ## 1. Frame Overview **Frame Name:** **Associated Program Area(s):** (e.g., Main Stage, Knowledge Tree – NES, Student Center, Guided Virtual Adventures) **Primary Purpose:** > One–two sentences describing *why this Frame exists* in the conference ecosystem. - Codex Page URL - Last Updated - Linked Frames ## **Secondary Functions:** **Target Audiences:** (e.g., presenters, attendees, students, volunteers, leadership) **Operational Mode:** - ☐ Online-only (June 14–15) - ☐ Hybrid (Online + Athens) - ☐ Face-to-face support only (Athens) --- ## 2. Ownership & Stewardship **Frame Owner (Accountable):** (Name, role) **Co-Steward(s):** (Name, role) **Decision Authority:** > Who resolves design, scheduling, or access questions. **Escalation Path:** > If something breaks or a decision stalls, where does it go? --- ## 3. Design & Experience Intent **Experience Goal:** > What should participants *feel and understand* when leaving this Frame? **Design Constraints:** (e.g., capacity limits, spatial layout, Frame VR affordances) **Key Interaction Patterns:** - Arrival / Orientation - Primary activity - Exit / Transition **Athens Reuse or Extension (if applicable):** > How this Frame translates to, supports, or complements the face-to-face event. > **Opinion:** Explicitly documenting intent here prevents Frames from drifting into “generic meeting rooms.” --- ## 4. Wayfinding & Navigation **Entry Points:** (e.g., Hub link, schedule click-through, guided tour) **Internal Wayfinding Elements:** - Signage - Visual landmarks - Teleport points **Exit Paths:** (e.g., return to Hub, next session Frame) **Wayfinding Owner:** (Name) --- ## 5. Accessibility & Inclusion Checklist **Accessibility Lead:** (Name) **Baseline Commitments:** - ☐ Clear signage and readable contrast - ☐ Audio clarity / redundancy - ☐ Spatial simplicity (no unnecessary navigation complexity) - ☐ Alternative participation pathway documented **Known Constraints or Risks:** > Be explicit—this supports transparency, not perfection signaling. **Athens Considerations:** (e.g., language support, physical accessibility alignment) --- ## 6. Volunteer & Support Roles ### Required Roles

**Training Required:** - ☐ Yes (link to Codex page) - ☐ No **Shift Coverage Notes:** (e.g., handoffs across time zones) --- ## 7. Presentation & Session Operations **Presentation Format(s):** - ☐ Live - ☐ Pre-recorded - ☐ Mixed **Moderator Responsibilities:** - Speaker readiness check - Timekeeping - Q&A facilitation - Transition to next session **Speaker Support Assets:** (e.g., slide upload location, backup links) --- ## 8. Technical Configuration **Frame URL:** **Capacity:** **Backup Space (if any):** **Known Failure Modes:** (e.g., audio lag, late arrivals, capacity overflow) **Contingency Plan:** > Where people go if this Frame fails. --- ## 9. 48-Hour Online Conference Integration **Primary Active Windows:** (e.g., Day 1 Morning UTC, Day 2 Late UTC) **Linked Events:** (Reference to Events Timeline IDs) **Quiet / Reset Periods:** > Explicitly note when nothing should be scheduled. --- ## 10. Post-Conference Use **Intended Afterlife:** - ☐ Archive - ☐ Reusable community space - ☐ Athens-only support - ☐ Decommission **Documentation Owner:** > Who ensures lessons learned are captured.
