WordPress and Beer – Feedback

Tuesday, November 18th, 2014

Just received the audience feedback from my 2014 HighEdWeb presentation and wanted to share. Thanks again to everyone who attended!

Evaluation Summary

I didn’t really have an estimate on how many people attended my initial session, but looking at the numbers it was a packed house. A total of 69 people filled out an evaluation.

The scale for this year’s evaluation was a bit different ( 5 instead of 7 point scale), so I needed to do a bit of conversion to compare to the 2008 and 2011 sessions. Looking at the totals, is seems that people were impressed, but it wasn’t relevant to everyone’s jobs.

Track (out of 5) Track (out of 7) Track (%)
Informed 4.93 +/- 0.26 6.90 99%
Pace 4.68 +/- 0.50 6.55 94%
Visuals 4.61 +/- 0.54 6.46 92%
Expectations 4.35 +/- 0.78 6.09 87%
Relevant 4.28 +/- 0.79 6.00 86%
Recommend 4.74 +/- 0.44 6.63 95%
