Responding to the Summer of Web Post Event Survey
Sep
16
We would like to thank everyone who attended our Summer of Web event, especially those who responded to the survey sent out last week. We kept the survey anonymous so people could speak their minds, and boy, did you ever! Everyone seemed to appreciate how difficult it was to organize and coordinate a conference like this.
What you seemed to enjoy:
- The food. Classic Fair catering provided both breakfast and lunch for the event.
- Meeting others who work on the web. This was huge for us, as our intent was to make sure that the UF web community got a chance to connect and converse with each other.
- The informal, but inspiring tone.
- The overall quality of the presentations.
What we need to improve or add:
- Transitions between speakers. We agree and will try to develop better ways of moving from one person to the next.
- More advanced topics. It would seem that our community is clamoring for CSS, HTML and scripting information. Sounds good to us! We wanted to make sure that everyone was aware of CSS and got a taste of it. Now that you have, we’ll look into advanced workshops on these topics.
- Better preparation for attendees. We could have done a better job of explaining that this event was meant to get everyone “back to basics”. We will make sure to prep everyone for our next event, which will likely be in the spring.
