Evaluation of NOVA scienceNOW Season 6

February 12, 2014 | Media and Technology
Goodman Research Group, Inc. conducted an external evaluation of WGBH's NOVA scienceNOW (NsN) multimedia project as part of the project’s award from the Advancing Informal STEM Learning division of the National Science Foundation. The evaluation assessed NsN’s effectiveness in meeting its broad goals for its public and professional audiences, including increasing public appreciation for, understanding of, and engagement in or pursuit of science, increasing science cafe organizers’ and speakers’ perceived expertise and skills, and fostering a community of practice among cafe organizers. The NsN Season 6 evaluation methods relied heavily on web-based surveys, hosted on GRG's survey platform.
