Hi OH-Events,
I'm working on an exit survey for people who attend(ed)
campus.openhatch.org events. The idea is to find out how well we're doing
at our goals of enabling students to participate better in open source,
and to use that to guide us in the future.
We've run a few events so far, and I think that we'll send this at least
to attendees of the UMD event in February. Morever, as we ramp up to run
one at RPI, we can ask students to fill out the exit survey right as the
event is coming to a close.
The idea is to get a sense of what parts of the workshop are good, what
needs improvement, and if generally people like it. I've written the
multiple-choice part with regard to the UMD event; I'd adjust those for
future events. You can read details of the UMD event here:
https://openhatch.org/wiki/Open_Source_Comes_to_Campus/UMD/Staff
Here's what I intend to ask. I'm happy to take feedback and suggestions; I
aim to send it out at the end of Thu, April 12.
