The pace of the exhibition was adequate but could have been better. The participants were fully engaged in the presentation, however, I was hoping for more interaction. As a presenter, I needed to have changed the tone of my delivery a bit, as I sounded monotone in some instances. Also, the planning of the video recording was not planned properly. In hindsight, I could have waited a bit longer before starting, but I was cognizant of the participants time.

Next time, I will have to plan ahead of schedule and have a separate time for set-up at least a half and hour before the participants arrive, so that the camera and technician can position himself to capture the event. Because he was late, he was not able to do so and as a result the captures taken were mostly from the side.

Gathering feedback can be a tricky affair, it requires tact and patience and also the fact that you have to be ethical in soliciting feedback. It is never the same in each instance. The trick for me in my planning was to make it as painless as possible, therefore, observing after the exhibition how forgetful we can be, I scrapped the paper idea and went straight for something online. In the analysis report of the survey at least 2 participants had filled out the form using a mobile phone. This is something to make note of. It shows that planning for the use of technology, and mobility is important for events such as these. You will find more people using their devices to do common tasks.

Overall, the participants enjoyed the content presented and have expressed an extended workshop sometime this year. In the survey, I asked what information, content or issues would they like to addressed or discussed. The question was a multiple choice questions so they could select a variety of answers, shown below.

It was interesting to see that the first choice Technology in Problem-Based Learning as the popular selection among participants. Also promising to see that number 2, 3, 4, 6, 7 were also choices that participants felt needed to be presented in the extended workshop. The participants also expressed and committed to participating in activities in the next workshop.

In the extended workshop, I plan to review and modify the presentation, make it shorter and include individual and group activities. There will be a problem-based learning activity which will use a card-sort feature. This will be presented as a take-away kit for participants. The workshop will focus on other arts disciplines, which is one of the more popular requests voiced by participants.

The promising and positive feedback means my exhibition, Creative Crowding has made an impact among my faculty peers and college stakeholders. The request and planning for an extended workshop features in my action plan for the future and in light of the changes ahead at the college with new programmes and a blended part-time degree offering, the exhibition is timely.
