Summative Evaluation of Altered State: Climate Change in California

The California Academy of Sciences contracted Randi Korn & Associates, Inc. (RK&A) to evaluate the exhibition Altered State: Climate Change in California. In August 2009, RK&A conducted 111 timing and tracking observations of visitors 9 years and older, and 44 group interviews with adult visitors. While observations enabled examination of time spent at individual exhibits, time spent in the exhibition as a whole, and behaviors, the interviews shed light on visitors' response to the exhibition layout, understanding of specific exhibits, learning about climate change, and affective response to Altered State.
