This page is currently being used by those involved with tabulating the results from the Workshop/Lab evaluations.

The [[FOSS4G2007_Workshop/Lab_Evaluation_Tabulation|Workshop/Lab Evaluation Tabulation]] page explains the process used to tabulate questions 1 through 9 on the evaluation forms.

In the following table, '''Webpage''' is a link to the description for the Workshop/Lab. '''Evaluations''' is a link to the PDF containing the scans of the evaluations. '''Results''' is the 1-page PDF with the tabulation of the results of the evaluations.
Follow these steps in order to help with the results tabulation.
 
  
 +
In the '''Evaluations''' PDF documents, the pages are in the following order:
 +
* evaluations that contain a response to both questions 10 and 11
 +
* evaluations that contain a response to either question 10 or 11
 +
* evaluations that do not have a response to either question 10 or 11

* when you have finished recording the evaluations in the PDF on the Tabulation Form, write the total for each cell next to the cell's heading
 
* check to make sure that for each question on the form, the total of the cells matches the total number of evaluations
 
* Rules for ambiguous answers:
 
** if the attendee circled/marked two adjacent options, count the option on the left (e.g. for question #1, if both ''Good'' and ''Fair'' were circled, count it as ''Good'')

** if the answer cannot be figured out, count it as ''No Answer''
 
* Tip: do the tabulation in an environment where you won't be interrupted, because losing track of where you are, part way through a page, means having to take time to figure out which questions, and parts of questions, you have tabulated for the current page

At this point the goal is to tabulate the results for questions 1 through 9 on the 778 Workshop/Lab Evaluation Forms that were scanned to PDFs.

Introduction

In addition to the conference evaluation form received by all conference attendees, each Workshop and Lab had an evaluation form. The forms were collected after each Workshop/Lab, and were then scanned to PDF documents (one per Workshop/Lab). You can see an example of the evaluation form (33KB PDF).

The Workshop/Lab Evaluation Tabulation page explains the process used to tabulate questions 1 through 9 on the evaluation forms.

In the following table, Webpage is a link to the description for the Workshop/Lab. Evaluations is a link to the PDF containing the scans of the evaluations. Results is the 1-page PDF with the tabulation of the results of the evaluations.

In the Evaluations PDF documents, the pages are in the following order:

  • evaluations that contain a response to both questions 10 and 11
  • evaluations that contain a response to either question 10 or 11
  • evaluations that do not have a response to either question 10 or 11
