1st AMICOM SUMMER SCHOOL VENUE WP320: Training of researchers and key staff
Participants list (total=43, students=21 WP320: Training of researchers and key staff
Questionnaire WP320: Training of researchers and key staff
Response to questionnaire from participants WP320: Training of researchers and key staff
Main conclusions from questionnaire “voting” • Majority opinions • Location and time were a big success • Duration seemed perfect • Schedule was fine • Split opinions • Duration of presentations (50% found them too long) WP320: Training of researchers and key staff
Main conclusions from questionnaire comments • Summer school well organized • Idea of partly remote location is good • Some presentations were NOT didactic enough (more workshop like rather than school like) • Future schools maybe more focused • Possibly longer duration (2hours) with more breaks • More students should have attended • More AMICOM partners should have been represented • More common social programs WP320: Training of researchers and key staff
Comments and proposals from the local organizer • Deepest thanks to all participants • High level of presentations • Impressive also were the Ph.D presentations (although low in number) • A CD with all lectures will be send to all participants by the end of October • More uniform representation of AMICOM partners • Better “advertisement” of the future SS’s • A kind of review process of the presentations in terms of their didactic nature can be introduced • Better prior organization of the Ph.D sessions WP320: Training of researchers and key staff
