Stormy Weather: A Front-end Evaluation

January 1, 1994 | Exhibitions
This report presents the findings from a front-end evaluation for Stormy Weather, a major traveling exhibition on severe storms. This exhibition is being developed through a collaboration among the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service, National Museum of Natural History, St. Louis Science Center, and National Severe Storms Laboratory, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

The purpose of conducting a front-end evaluation is to better understand visitors' perceptions and their baseline knowledge regarding a particular subject--in this case, severe storms. The goals of the evaluation were outlined in the Request for Proposal and were clarified during an initial meeting between the evaluators and representatives from participating institutions.
