1. What did you enjoy about The Image Conference?
I really enjoyed the friendly and inspiring atmosphere of the conference, the fruitful exchange and the immediacy of the participants. I really gained a lot in terms of educational tools and moments of personal reflection.

2. How was The Image Conference different from other conferences you’ve been to?
I think that the answer above can pretty much cover what I have to say about this question. The conference was held in exchange of educational, but also emotional capitals between the participants and that really made the difference.
3. What were the main discussion points to arise in The Image Conference?
From my personal perspective, the main question which was approached in most of the sessions in multiple ways was how we can incite our students’ emotional capital to emerge through multimodality in our classes. Emotional capital as a means of change in a local frame, but seen cultivatingly, in a global frame too.
4. Are there any innovations to the format of the Image Conference that you would like to see in the future?
I would really like the conference to be record, in order to have the opportunity to follow all sessions, after the end of the procedure. Too many great ideas and such a little time!
