Here are some of the remarks and feedback registrants
recorded on their evaluation forms.
2011 Conference Evaluation
1.
The breaks and lunch were too long. In speaking with other
attendees we agreed we'd rather have four or five sessions and 30 minutes
for lunch.
2.
Run popular workshops more than once
3.
Shorten the day - less time at breaks.
4.
Absolutely loved the workshops will be attending next year.
5.
Breaks and lunch could be shorter - food and door prizes wonderful!
6.
Labelling workshops to identify level of learning e.g. geared for
introduction to the topic.
7.
Please have keynote speaker on stage - most people could not see.
8.
Everything was great it was a wonderful day. Worth getting up
@ 5:30 for!!
9.
Have more workshops that are " make and takes" so we have immediate ready
to use resources.
10.
Presenters must be bold and tell the talkers to "BE QUIET".
It is really annoying to try to listen to a presenter and have people
talking.
11.
Maps too small to read. Lots of paper waste! Be more enviro
friendly.
12.
The workshops were often shorter than allotted. Next year I'd
suggest 60 min workshops with 15 minutes in between.
13.
I LOVE this Event! I look forward to it each year.
