I would like to propose a session on "Evaluating the involvement of visitors with exhibits" for the next ASTC conference.

What are visitors actually doing in our exhibitions? With how many exhibits do they interact? Do they 'complete' the interaction, or maybe even repeat?
What are the most popular exhibits, and the least popular? Is there influence of age or gender? We have a visitor registration system which allows us to follow visitors through an exhibition without disturbing the visitors. In a few months time statistical results of 10 000 s of visitors are acquired,over a year a few 100 000. Those results will be presented.

Anyone who would like to join this session?



best regards,

Patricia
