<H3>What's it about?</H3>
This one day hackathon is for people who are interested in tackling interesting UCL challenges. It's a day dedicated to working collaboratively in which we seek to build prototypes and solutions to help solve UCL's big and small problems. - And, no, you do not need to know how to write code! Ideas and concepts are just as welcome as tangible prototypes.
 
<H3>What will you work on?</H3>
We are interested in your ideas and prototypes for these specific challenges:
1. Predicting when assets fail 
2. Building a Student Intranet
3. Hacking #LearnHack: developing a self-sustaining event

At the end of the day one team will earn prizes for best overall problem solving process and solution. Everyone who participates actively in the entire event will receive a certificate of attendance at the end of the event.

FAQ
 What do you mean by "participating actively"?  You are present for the entire day and you add value to a team throughout the event. Alternatively, you run a workshop or presentation, help with facilitation/tidying up/handing out lunch, etc. We want everyone at the event to make a positive difference and support the UCL community in doing amazing things.
What exactly is going to happen at the event? #LearnHack 4.5 follows our tried and tested one day hackathon format: We will be kicking off on Saturday at 10am with a welcome and a brief overview of the challenges. You will then have a little bit of time to form teams. By 11:00am you should be ready to start work on your ideas and prototypes. By 6pm your team should be able to give a short 2-3 minute presentation explaining your outcome, how you tackled your challenge and what you learned in the process.  
What if I buy a ticket but later decide I can't make the event after all? This is important: 1) If you cancel your ticket at least 48hrs before the event via Eventbrite, we're cool because it allows us to release your ticket back into the pool. 2) If you have to drop out with less than 48hrs to go, then you must email the organiser before the start of the event. 3) If you decide that options 1 and 2 don't apply to you and you choose simply not to show up, we reserve the right to cancel without explanation any future #LearnHack events you try to register for. 
We totally understand that plans can change at short notice, but that's not an excuse for bad manners!
