Feedback and evaluation about first-analysis-steps HOT 18 OPEN

I would like to know:

• Were there any parts of the workshop that you found confusing or unhelpful?
• Were there any parts of the workshop that you would like to know about in more detail?
• Do you feel like you have enough information to start your analysis? If not, why not?

Personally, I find the “rank each question from “agree”, “disagree” [etc]” type of questionnaires difficult to answer, and I would find reading wordier responses more informative. But, takes more time on both sides.

from first-analysis-steps.

Oh, and I personally would have no moral or ethical objection to installing analytics on the lesson pages. Legally (I guess you mean CERN-specific?) I have no idea.

from first-analysis-steps.

No idea about legal issues, was just wondering if anyone could think of anything. Quite happy if we conclude "none".

I like the three questions and 👍 on wordy replies.

from first-analysis-steps.

The questions are good and I agree that wordy replies can provide better insights. Especially since there will only be 40 people we have a good chance of reading everything.

Personally I would also want to add one or two questions about the organisation especially regarding

• the date wrt LHCb week other events
• the time (spent) on each day (too little / too much / too late / too early)
• BBQ
• the sign up process
• the fee

These are actually things where * - ***** ratings would be sufficient, don't you think.

How about we set up a Google Form for this?

from first-analysis-steps.

👍 on form, are you doing it? Use the fantastic theme we had for the original questionnaire :)

from first-analysis-steps.

Fine with me to include these five questions with a -1,0,+1 rating (or five stars if you really like granularity)

from first-analysis-steps.

I can, remind me what theme did you use? The comic sans one, right?

Forgot what the theme is called.

Okay on second thought, I will just formulate one general question concerning the organisation. -**** ratings just don't give enough insight and I would always want an additional textbox.

Please review.

Is there some way to "dump" a google form into our repo? So that it can be
re-used without typing the questions for the next round of this.

Not that I am aware of.

LGTM (Merge!?? :-))

from first-analysis-steps.

I just started going through the starter kit. I would again include, how long have people been in LHCb but I would use a finer granularity than years. Alternatively one could ask if people have done a bachelor, master etc. thesis. I can imagine that at one point one wants to split up the sessions into real beginners, semi-experienced etc...

from first-analysis-steps.

So, the two forms differ in the question of the "Years in LHCb". I like @saschastahl approach on this, can @kdungs add this to his and we put it in the "Contributing" lesson?

from first-analysis-steps.

Ah sorry I wanted to add this but forgot. Partly because it was not immediately clear to me how to phrase it properly.

from first-analysis-steps.

The link to the questionnaire we will send around by email and maybe show
on a slide or so. It shouldn't be part of a lesson.

Updated the form with a question asking how long they have been doing particle physics
