This session is not about what you're doing wrong or how you need to "fix" something that's broken. We're here to tell you that science (pedagogical studies and philosophies) are on your side in the types of engagement you're doing with your developer audience. This talk is for anyone on a team that outreaches to developers as part of their main function. You'll learn the science behind some of our favorite outreach styles, while simultaneously finding new data and ideas to further enrich your developer support activities. People who want to know more about how education can play a vital role in reaching and keeping developers engaged with your content (docs, blogs, videos, lms curriculum) should consider attending this exciting and entertaining talk.

Take Aways

  • Success (or struggle) in many DevRel activities often has a pedagogical basis
  • Understanding some core educational psychology can positively impact DevRel outcomes
  • Exploring DevRel from a cross-disciplinary angle can unlock innovative engagement tactics.
