Abstract:
A lot of time and effort goes into running a Research Bazaar – teachers, helpers and organisers spend days, weeks or even months to prepare and run the training and activities.
Is that time worth it? How beneficial is it to the attendees? Do the volunteer teachers and helpers get any benefit for the time they dedicate? Do people return next year? Do they recommend it to others?
This presentation will share final report statistics from previous Qld Resbaz Conferences, talking about behaviours of attendees, the impact this dedicated time has and who gets the benefits.
