Evaluation of MLA Virtual Conference


 

  • Did we reach our target audience?

Target audience is soft techies (23 Things graduates) - Evaluate by cross-checking 23 Things completers in each region/system with virtual conference registrations.

  • Was the content appropriate to the target audience?

Include the question, "The programs offered are relevant to my work in libraries and will improve my skills on the job." Scale of 1 to 5 with 1 being Strongly Disagree and 5 being Strongly Agree.

  • Were 8 programs scheduled, advertised, and conducted?
  • The presenters' experience.

    Survey presenters. Potential questions using the above 1-5 scale:

  1. The presenter orientation adequately prepared me to present a virtual conference program.
  2. The Learning Times representatives were responsive and helpful before, during, and after the program.
  3. I felt comfortable presenting in the virtual environment.
  • Registrants participated in at least 75% of the conference offerings

    Can Learning Times report back attendance of programs?

  • Participants found the virtual conference experience worth repeating

    Survey participants after the conference:

    Please indicate your satisfaction with the online training environment/tools

    I would recommend the virtual conference to a colleague.

  • Each presentation should be evaluated individually:

    Please rate how well the presenter:

  1. Demonstrated sufficient knowledge of the subject matter
  2. Achieved the stated objectives
  3. Provided adequate and timely answers to questions on the topic

The pace of this program was: too slow, just right, too fast

One exciting thing I learned today was:

Overall I'm satisfied with the quality and content of this conference session. It was worth my time.

What would have increased your satisfaction with this course?
