Context
The IETF 120 meeting , which concluded earlier this month, brought together a diverse group of professionals, researchers, and stakeholders from the internet technology sector. The post-meeting survey is a crucial tool for the IETF, allowing organisers to assess various aspects of the event, including the quality of sessions, virtual meeting logistics, and overall participant satisfaction. We dropped the detailed questions about side meetings for reasons explained below. We also dropped the question about different online participation mechanisms in favour of a more detailed question about Meetecho.
Evidence
Pending intelligence enrichment.
Analysis
Overall experience: Attendees are asked to rate their overall experience of the meeting, including the effectiveness of the event’s format and organisation. Content and sessions: Participants are invited to evaluate the relevance and quality of technical sessions, working group meetings, and presentations. Virtual meeting aspects: For meetings held online, feedback is sought on the virtual platform’s functionality, accessibility, and interaction quality. Logistics and administration: Insights into logistical arrangements, scheduling, and administrative support are also collected.
Key Points
- The satisfaction scores from the recent survey indicate a mean and standard deviation based on a five-point scale, where a score above 4.50 is considered excellent, and below 3.50 is viewed as poor or very poor.
- Despite efforts to provide extra seating near breakout rooms, feedback suggests that the demand for close seating is still underestimated, indicating a need for further adjustments.
Actions
Pending intelligence enrichment.
