Hi everyone,

Because we had the conversation on this mailing list, I wanted to provide a quick update about soliciting attendee feedback on speaking sessions.

I mentioned before that we are building out a survey tool in our new scheduling platform and mobile app, which will be available for the Austin Summit, but didn’t have a good solution for the Tokyo Summit….

Now we've come up with a decent hack for Tokyo! We worked with the Sched team to integrate a “feedback” link in the mobile app that uses simple Wufoo forms on the backend. It’s not the most beautiful solution, but we’re happy to start gathering information :) We’ll encourage attendees to give us feedback on the sessions they attend, and will of course encourage speakers to promote it for their sessions.

Just wanted to share the update so you are all aware and can help spread the word…hopefully it will give track chairs for the Austin Summit more information to make decisions.

Cheers,
Lauren

​That's awesome Lauren!!  Thanks for the update!​

I'll make sure to promote the feedback link.  Nice work on under-promising and over-delivering!

Oh sorry, we want to roll out the tools for Austin, but the hope is to have them ready for testing the end of this year or early next.

I’m hoping to recruit some folks from the community to help with that testing in Tokyo :)

Lauren – Understand the short path to Tokyo. It sounded like a Beta was planned for Austin (I might’ve read that wrong) and I was wondering if it’s possible to get past beta for Austin.
Thanks

No, it's not possible to have the new summit tools ready for Tokyo (we would already need to be using the scheduling tool), but I'm happy to pursue other ways to gather feedback in Tokyo like we're discussing.

I think any mechanism for feedback would be v valuable. Is there any way to accelerate the plans for Austin (it’s a year out!) to get this in place for all keynotes/sessions?
Thanks

​Awesome!!  Thanks Claire, I'll save my views on "votes" for the survey :)

Also, rumor has it that we may actually be able to try and institute a feedback mechanism for the attendees this time around?  In my opinion that could be an extremely valuable tool.

Anyway... thanks!

Hi John,

Unfortunately, we won’t have a new tool to collect session feedback for the Tokyo Summit, but we are developing a new Summit scheduling tool and mobile app that we’re hoping to roll out in Austin, which would allow attendees to provide session feedback via the mobile app. We’re planning to host a feedback session in Tokyo to review the new tools and recruit some beta testers.

In the meantime, one option for Tokyo could be to require each speaker to post a slide with a unique URL to a survey at the end of their presentation. It would require quite a bit of manual work to set up and collect the results, but it’s possible if we think it’s worth doing. We’re open to ideas.

Thanks!
Lauren

​Hi Lauren,

Bummer.... but Austin isn't far away!!  I kinda like the idea of setting something up manually this time around, as a speaker I certainly think it would be worth doing even just for my own personal growth and improvement.  I don't know if others feel strongly enough about making it part of the required work for presenting or not, but I'd certainly be willing to put forth the effort.​  Keep me posted, and if volunteers are needed to head up the effort I'd be happy to participate.

Thanks,
John
